The shipping will most probably depend on weight and then when it gets to the country there is VAT put on the whole thing, or individual parts even, depending on the mood of the toll people. However, the guys that sell the case I want are willing to check if they can special order parts so I'm going to send them a list of what I want and see what they can do.

The Xeon CPU can only be found in pre-made machines here and are usually freakishly expensive. I have no logical idea why computer parts are so expensive here in Iceland. They just are.

Thank you very much for that. And no offence taken, I do realize that the prizes for computer parts here are just insane. My partner nearly had a heart attack when hearing how much it would cost me without a new monitor, keyboard and mouse. You are right the 4790k isn't available just yet, I found one company that is selling it but I don't trust them due to their bad reputation. And, yes you are correct I am very limited when it comes to selection of things. There are more companies that are selling computer parts here but still the selection is crappy. My selection is generally between Gigabyte, Asus and MSI, occasional EVGA but in some cases they are expensive as f**k. It was only recently that I found a company that was selling cases from NZXT, which I'm so happy about because I do want colour from my case. I'm trying to aim for a build that is black and red so the Sabertooth board isn't a must. One of the reasons I only provided that single link is because that it is generally better to buy everything from one seller. The reason is that you generally get an insurance for two years on the machine. I do like that build that you made and very appreciate it. Especially considering broken translations and limited selection

Thank you very much for that.

Oh I love that, however ... The kicker is that when that machine arrives to the country I will have to pay customs fees, some handling and possibly some extra taxes as well. So that 2165 dollar machine is more like 2720 when it finally arrives to me. Which sucks but that is just how it is. I would love to have two 780 in my machine but seeing that a single one is about 771USD here in Iceland that is just too much.

I just clicked the link and indeed it did take you to top of this site strange. Anyways, http://www.start.is/index.php?route=product/category&path=25_28_69 let us try this one. This should direct you directly to their video card page. I hope.

The site I have been looking at is http://www.start.is They are currently the only ones that are selling the H440.

Hi there. I am looking for opinions and suggestions for a new machine. My old machine has served me faithfully for nearly nine years and it has been starting to show the wear and tear. Skyrim killed the video card in it and now Mass Effect is grilling the rest as well as the spare video card I found. Aside from it being slow. I am aiming for a gaming machine that can handle light video editing and recording. I plan to be playing Dragon Age 3 and Witcher 3 when those games are out. Then I have a few games sitting on my Steam store shelf waiting to be played, like Mirrors Edge and Tomb Raider, because I don't want to fry my old machine just yet.Though I'm on a good way of doing so. Moving on. Now, even though I'm not all that concerned about spending on this machine of mine I would prefer the price not going above 2.200 USD. The current build is at 1.970 USD 3. Parts chosen so far Case: H440 from NZXT Power Supply: Corsair CX750M Modular 80PLUS CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth Z97 GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU II 2GB GDDR5 RAM: 8GB Kingston HyperX Predator 2133MHz (2x4GB) CL11 SSD:120GB Samsung 840 EVO 540MBs/410MBs HD: 1TB Seagate SATA3 7200rpm 64MB NCQ CPU Fan: SCYTHE mugen 4 Rev.B Regarding OS. I own Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit. Should I get a copy of Win 8.1 or should I just let my own copy of Win 7 be enough? Other than that thanks in advance for reading this and hopefully I'll end up with a good machine before Dragon Age 3 comes out.

Thank you for that, a decision has been made and WD RED will be used for the system. Thanks again.

My budget is around 1700 US dollars, I will not be ordering anything online sadly because that would be more expensive than just walking down into the stores here. The curse of living on an island. What I want from the motherboard is that it is solid and worth it. I want to spend money on watercooling but sadly that isn't even an option here on this little island. And this is the selection of motherboards I have in the country right now. The first two I posted are the ones that are currently available in a store that my brother works at and I could get a slight discount on them but if there are other boards that I should be looking at I'm all ears.
-
I have decided that my new CPU will be, Intel Core i5-4670K Haswell 3.4GHz 22nm 6mb Quad-Core. Now the question is, would this motherboard here be enough for it or would I be better off with something like this? This is aimed for a gaming PC.

No, it isn't the only brand I have looked into, the reason I asked was because I hadn't heard anything about them and was curious what others thought about the brand. Quick Fire Rapid Red just recently came to stores and I will be looking into that one as well, I am I heavy typist and I game as well, I don't require loads of macro keys but I do require a durable keyboard and mouse. I'm currently working with G15 Logitech keyboard and Logitech MX 500 mouse. I will need to replace the mouse sooner than the keyboard because I'm starting to notice my mouse missing out clicks.

Hello. I am looking at getting a new keyboard and mouse and would like to know if anyone has any experience with Tt eSPORTS Black Element mouse or Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1 keyboard from Thermaltake.
