Could just use a long screw with a nut. I forget the size.

There isn't a hybrid bracket for my cards.

Corsair makes brackets for 980ti's that use an H60 or similar. 

It's not an official hybrid bracket, but it does the same thing. Just doesn't have the EVGA name on it. 

EVGA and Corsair got their radiators made in the same place. Acetek.

Really? It's $380 I don't think It is a cheaper version.

380 bucks for a thunderbolt port is stupid.

Asus is overcharging for built in thunderbolt.. When I looked at specs on the Premium it had less features than its Deluxe counterpart. 

It's your money, but buying a 400 dollar skylake mobo is dumb. Theres way better options for less. 

I don't need thunderbolt. 

The Titan was replaced by a 980ti.

Why not just buy the Hybrid bracket for your card?

That looks exactly like a Deluxe. I'm thinking that it is a Deluxe for different regions.

No it's a board for sale in the US. It's on their site as Z170-P.

Its a cheaper version of the Deluxe.

OP I doubt youll find an english review of that board in video. It's a cheaper board, and companies tend to only review the higher tier products. It's basically a Deluxe missing a few things. Why not just look at the Deluxe review and ignore the parts your board doesn't have.

Which is more than the sub 1GB I see under my current  Windows 7 after startup. Windows 10 after a fresh install uses over 1GB in comparison.

I'm content with 10.

Oh I had Chrome up with that usage lol.. I closed it all and got to 1.9GB. That's it, no steam, no msi afterburner, no avast, no chrome, just the desktop idling.

Yea that was Ram Usage.. 2.7 outta 64gb.

Why not look at the Deluxe?

It's basically the same mobo with a few more features. Plus the Deluxe has a review in english.

You'll never make my 60GB SSD like it...or my GTX 970's vRAM, or indeed the RAM. All 3 are under heavier use  in Windows 10 than 7-and that's a fresh install of Windows 10 compared to fully set up Windows 7 with my programs installed+7 running in the background (including Avast and Steam) and Aero enabled in Windows 7. My 4790K on the other hand...only video transcoding seems to put it under even a moderate load at 4.8GHz.

 I've got 64 so what do I care! LOL 

2.7GB usage, with Avast and steam for me.  When I built my 6700k it went to Win 10 instantly. Reinstalled 7 to boot, then upgraded my fresh 7 install to it.  My other pc was just an upgrade. 

Haven't had an issue, and I even regedit'd it to the dark theme on 10. Instead of the white crap everywhere.

Plus I get to console game without actually owning a filthy peasant console.  SHHH dont tell the PC MR.

Which one matches your case? Which brand do you like more?

Its your choice. Both will perform about the same. It boils down to which one you like better?

You all need to see the light of Windows 10.

It's basically the same as 7 with a smidge of 8 thrown in. When I upgraded, I didn't even lose a SINGLE file. Basically just replaced my task bar and IE to edge. 

Plus you can see how much data your using in a month for those who have limited internet plans. I dont so I've used 300gb lol. 

Windows 10 wasn't that bad. Even my 6700k likes it.

Using a Y splitter.

both fans will run at the same speed.

I use an extension for charging my phone, but not using inputs for my PC. 

Stupid wall socket in the bedroom is in the wrong place. Shows you can't know/think of it all when remodeling.

I remodeled my house last year and realized my placement of wall sockets was almost perfect until I got in my room. I must have been drunk or stupid. 

Steam, or GoG.com

GoG is DRM free some newer games and alot of older ones. 

Some of them are, Home depot would be your best bet.  They'd have a better selection and maybe a color that would work better than tan.

IIRC keyboard/mouse is still USB2. So regardless I think they'll run at 2 speeds even through a 3 extension. Dont quote me though, I'm not a USB wizard. I just plug stuff in and let it go.

Hope I could help some way. Now you've got more money for other parts. 

Those things that Alex mentioned are the best bet. 

They're flexible enough, it's just a softer rubber piece. Plus if someone walks on it, it's strong enough to stop any cord damage. 

Could use a pair of pants, or a towel to lay on the wire to help. 

Using a long USB cable will introduce the same input lag as before. That's what you're trying to eliminate, no point in upgrading and introducing it right back in. 

Is moving the room's layout around an option? Make it so the bed is closer to the TV getting rid of the walkway?

When I stress tested mine, I was working that day. So I started it, went to work. Came home and it was still there. I got to a toasty 81 but it was stable. 

Ran Asus Realbench for 12 hours.  Aida 64 for 12 more. No issues. It was my first OC I followed linus's 6700k OC video. Just kept making small changes until it got there. I was surprised it got to 5ghz. 

I just watched the video myself Luke's conclusion was it doesnt matter that much. 

If you want P/P for the bling or whatever, go ahead, but like me it'll only affect it a little. 

See if this helps you any @racer243l

I own a H100i and used it with the stock fans (SP120 Performance ones) and recently switched to the SP120 Quiet Edidtions.
MAN it's better, although they are not the most silent fans it's still soooo much better than the stock fans.

I really recommend swapping the stock fans with something more quiet.

Yea my stock fans, one made noise and another didn't  work. I needed something to cool the rad. I ended up with the PE S120's and the sound is a little louder. I can't hear my AF140's. There's 4 AF140's and 4 SP120s in my case.

The 140s are quiet and the 120s arent. I might switch them. It's getting old hearing fan whine.

That's ultimately up to you. It's your money.

I have a 6700k at 5.0ghz at 1.36 voltage.  It didn't help me much either. I went P/P because of the free fans. Plus I did it because everyone said it was impossible to do P/P in a CM Mastercase Pro 5. Sure one fan's ring is touching some piece of plastic. 

I idle at about 28 C in a ambient temp room of 19.4 room. My max temps I've ever seen is 52. When I'm gaming. My 2 GPU's are both exhausting into the case, which the fans on the radiator probably suck up.  I have 3 AF140's in the front, 1 AF140 in the back, and 4 SP120's on the rad up top. 

It's your call, because you are spending the money. For the 1-2 degrees I got, I wouldn't recommend it. 

If it was a bigger difference I'd say yeah go for it.  

Could always try, if you have extra fans that fit your rad laying around. 

I'm P/P on an H100 and the temps went down like 1-2 C and all I really got was louder, but my headphones help with that.

I only went P/P because Amazon screwed up when they shipped my fans. I bought 1 Twin Pack of SP120's. My box had 2, Amazon said keep them for being honest. I might switch them out for SP120 Quiet Editions though. I think these are performance editions and they make noise.

My HTPC has similar specs to your pc, I justs have a slightly better GPU. It'll be fine on GTA 5, just run medium settings, and look for a GPU upgrade. 

GTA5 is hard on the GPU when you're in town and driving around.

First time I heard of Custom PC's I thought people would actually design there own components and cases from raw materials... Oh how I was VERY wrong lol

Technically you can make your own case from raw materials.. 

The rest not so much, unless your name is Intel/Nvidia/AMD
