  1. I know RGB supposedly doesn’t exist for 1150 socket boards but I was hoping for something like an underglow or glowing traces, the G1 Sniper has really good lighting but it is only green... I am hoping for maybe RGB or something similar to the G1 Sniper.
  2. So I’m looking into upgrading my motherboard (currently a Gigabyte G1 Sniper B6) and I was looking for a better motherboard (one with more lighting options and a better chipset for overclocking.). Does anyone know of any good 1150 socket motherboards for 4790k?
  3. So, I have saved up $750 ish to upgrade my PC. Current Specs: -i7 4790k @4589 MHz -Corsair H60 -Gigabyte G1 Sniper B6 -Crucial Tactical Tracer 2x 4GB 1x 8GB -GTX 760ti My motherboard is a B chipset, but it is running an experimental BIOS which allows me to overclock. Currently I am using the Gigabyte CPU upgrade feature and I have my 4790k sitting at 4589 MHz. I would like to overclock, but my Corsair H60 isn't enough to keep it stable. As I said, I have $750 to upgrade and I am planning to get a 1080ti. Is the 1080ti too much for my 4790k? So my main question is should I get better cooling for my CPU (I was thinking the NZXT x52) or a 1080ti? As it is, my 4790k constantly overheats but never gets over 212F. Is 212F (100C) too hot to use without worrying? Will I damage my CPU by letting it get to these temperatures for less than a second during BF1? Should I get a 1080 instead? Please leave advice on what I should do. PS: I have a 1tb nvme M.2 SSD that I acquired from a laptop Alienware sent me as a replacement, however, my motherboard won't let me boot to it in the M.2 slot. Once Windows is open it detects fine but the speed is slow, I am getting an adapter to put it into the pcie slot on my motherboard. So no SSD recommendations please.
