A 970 would put a smile on his face for sure. Id be hella happy,if I were him.

Warsongs-The boy who shattered time (MitiS remix) I listen to MitiS on a daily basis

Ok so I got my windows 10 from the Microsoft website. They give it free without the key but you will need one. Make a bootable usb drive, Microsoft will do it when you download the installer. I got my key for $20 and its legit.

As long as you followed ESD procedure you should be ok.Its more than likely the way you wired. Keep going man.

Aside from that this is your best friend. I was nervous with mine but I read the hell outta the manual. Got it right the first time around. I also made sure that was the first few things I did when I put my mobo in my case. Chapter 1 page 27 ASUS X99A2.pdf

The max temp for the 960 is 98c, so your ok.

Found a build log. Perhaps that may help.

Imo just get a small sized SSD dedicated to your OS and get like a Western Digital Black in 1TB and up range. Videos are going to take up space fast, especially if you render in HD quality.

Your good to go! My Sapphire 7950 can do it

Also make sure that your connections are correct on the system panel. Example *reset button,speakers(for beep codes),HD LED, and PWR LED

I'd recommend reinstalling the drivers, as that was the issue with my GPU even after reseating it.

I would highly recommend just upgrading. Yeah PS4 has great games out and upcoming (Horizon Zero Dawn....) but honestly its not worth the monthly subscription. So IMO just go for the 1050ti or 1060. Overall its a better experience.

Thank you as well! The white is nice but it kills my eyes lol (sensitive)

Definitely man! Thank you everyone for taking the time to look!

Thank you very much! I personally love the case.
