Iv'e always wanted to do an X99 build since the chip set originally came out, I had been saving money for a little over three years to make this build. I didn't need it right away since I had a good Dell XPS tower with a decent i7 in it to last me till I was able to build my custom one. I had originally started with:
-Core i7-4930K
-Asus X99-A/USB 3.1
-Corsair Vengeance 16 GB DDR4
-Cooler Master V1200 FM
-Intel 730 Series 2.5" 480GB
-WD Blue 2TB
-Cooler Master HAF 912 Mid Tower
-Asus Strix GTX 980 Ti
-Neptwin CPU Cooler
As everyone knows, new things come out over time so I had to change the plan up a bit. I built my system in June of 2016 and have been running great with:
-Core i7-6800K
-Asus X99 ROG Strix
-Crucial Ballistix 32 GB 2666Mhz DDR4
-EVGA 1000 P2
-Intel 540 Series 2.5" 1 TB
-WD Black 2TB
-Cooler Master Master Case 5 Mid Tower
-Asus Strix GTX 1080
-Corsair H100i CPU Cooler
-Atlas GPU Bracket
I also picked up a new desk and monitor, the Acer XG270HU 27" 1440p 144Hz Monitor, so everything is new and refreshed. What does everyone think?
