Oh snap been watching that live stream since the very 1st one. Big fan of all you guys do thanks for eberything!

Build quality seems to be the best part about this phone, which is no small factor in any phone. Too often overlooked in a attempt to keep costs down phones these days seem to opt for plastic and craptastic materials in leiu of a nice solid metal construction. I recently shattered y screen on my Note II and I and quickly realizing I need a replacement. I have not even come close to considering a HTC after what they did to me with the "first 4G LTE phone" the HTC Thunderbolt. They really screwed their early adopter customer base with that phone, no updates...ever. I have since that point swon them off, but they may have seemed to matured a little since then, it has been like 5 years. I would test one of these if I won, looks sexy enough....

Good looking out peeps

I will use headphones, thinking ATH-AD500 most likely. Thanks for the recommendation for Bitfenix, they seem to be the most expensive of all the LED strips out there so I hope the would be the best. I will have to do more research into them.

Looks like a great build! Are you using on-board sound for this rig?

Hey guys, First post and glad to be a part of the Linus Tech Tips Forum. I will be assembling my 2nd build this weekend as my final parts should arrive on Thursday. I have been using a i7 870 with a GTX 460 with 8gb of 1333 ram for a while now and it's finally time to put that away. Very excited. It will be used for mostly gaming but also some Photoshop and light video editing. Here's the specs: Case - CM Storm Stryker - $142.48 Mobo - Asus Sabertooth z77 - $239.99 Proc - Intel core i7 3770k - $329.99 GPU - Evga gtx 670 4gb FTW - $439.99 Ram - Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB 4x4 1866 - $179.99 PSU - Corsair AX750 - $159.99 SSD - Kingston HyperX 3K 120GB - $101.99 CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i - $114.99 Fans - 2 - SP120 Quiet Edition(Replacement for stock H100i fans) - $27.99 Total cost came out to $1737.40 (I paid no shipping costs) I know this isn't the best "value" PC but it should look fantastic with all the premium components in it. Also I have a few HDD laying around for storage. I will likely move to a custom loop in the future but haven't done a loop yet so going to study up a bit before I jump into that. I also plan to add a 2nd GTX 670 4GB FTW soon and 3 Achevia Shimian monitors as well. I am looking for recommendations on a quality sound card, something $100 or less. Also recommendations on good case lighting, I was thinking Modelers Brand LED Tape, does anyone here have experience with that product? Does anyone recommend a LED bar? I will be looking for white LED's. I will post some pics this week as things arrive and as I start building. Fun fact: I have been been able to finance this entire build just selling old electronics and other items I had laying around the house on Ebay, so its a nice "bonus" for 2013. Took about 40 days of auctioning stuff. Thanks for reading about my build and hope someone can recommend a sound card and some good lighting for Luminous, I want it to shine!
