    Get this PSU instead http://pcpartpicker.com/product/TgW9TW/seasonic-power-supply-m12ii520bronze
     
    Way cheaper, and SeaSonic is top notch stuff (CX series is garbage) Not to mention it's fully modular

    Acceptable, I think the CPU block has a "meh" mount but the temps are workable so I'm not going to change anything.

    It's really nothing special, 32m is really easy to run low volt high speeds
    It took him like 11 months to sell it for a reason
    I think they sell the 4.9 still, he can get 5's if you ask but it's almost $1,000 if I remember.

    Sorry for my horrendous photography!!!

    Very pleased with the results!! The fittings look very nice and the overall theme is very nice. Although it's hard to tell, cable management is superb and I'm very happy with my bends. Although, I will probably not do hard tubing again in the future. It was a royal pain...
     
    Anyways, 5775C does NOT like overclocking. I got like 4.1 GHz haha. I could maybe push for more but I won't poke the bear for now (I got major bootloops earlier)

    Its actually really hard to see the build, the photos are little glared/blurry. From what I can see it looks pretty decent

    Meh, it looks bad because it's stock Titan XP vs OC'd 1080. I'd be curious to see the OC Titan XP results, though

    By quoting me and saying it's disappointing, it implies that my post in someway said it was impressive/not disappointing.
     
    If you simply wanted to state it was disappointing, it doesn't make sense to quote my post as it isn't relevant to what I was saying

    I mean, just the fact you own 5775c is awesome, since most people have not heard of them.

The 1080 was choose for superb 4K performance, and the i7-5775C for it's low TDP and the fact it's extremely uncommon (a fun part to throw in imo!)

    I got it due to the novelty; it's just a very uncommon part and it performs very similarly to 4790K so it was one of those "why not" moments haha  I've had my mind set on getting one for a long time
     
    But yeah iGPU is the practical reason to get one, but obviously with a 1080 that's not going to help me much lol

    I finally got off my butt and fixed my cables actually, I had the 24 pin with the orange wires for the longest time, even after I ordered a new board lol.
