Great skin. Would love to have an LTT phone

Great phone. Always great to see metal bodied phones. And giveaways ftw!

I have two 6 year old 500GB Seagate drives, one 250GB 10 year old Seagate drive and three 1TB Seagate 5 Year old drives and none of them have failed, not once. I call bullshit.

Thanks!

Sure is! There's a red/black theme that has been established, and it looks awesome

Haha, that's fine. I'm currently using a 560Ti for the time being, so it's not that bad But, I'm having someone get it from Australia for (I live in India), since it's about $650, the 770 here LOL. So yeah, the person coming is arriving on the 23rd, so that's when I get my hands on it

So just built a new system for 2014. Here's the specs: Core i5-4670K CPU Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming Motherboard 2x4GB 1866MHz Corsair Vengeance (Red Heat Spreader) DDR3 RAM MSI GTX 770 Twin Frozr IV GPU Corsair Carbide 300R Case 2x1TB Seagate Barracuda HDDs in RAID 0 1x500GB Seagate Barracuda HDD 1x120GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD Seasonic S12II 620W PSU Haven't decided on the peripherals yet. And the GTX 770 and the SSD will arrive on the 23rd or so. Will post pictures after the 770 arrives! EDIT: Here's pictures of the build so far! : (Will post more when the GPU Arrives) Here's a link to the gallery, for easier viewing : http://imgur.com/a/TFKw0

Getting the MSI Z87 GD65!

Yep. I think Ill get whichever I can find cheaper at this point.

Well actually. I do have a set of required features. Pretty much what the GD65 offers. SLi support, good overclocking, 6-8 USB 3.0 ports 8 SATA 3.0 ports, good build quality and a stable power delivery system. I guess. And something which offers decent warranty policies. I'm looking at the Extreme4, GD65 and the Z87x-UD3H at this point. The whole thing coming down to which has better warranty and workmanship. I've never used an ASRock board. So I was unsure. Which was why I asked.

Not considering the G43 since it doesn't support SLi. So do I, but they're so expensive

It looks good, too lol. Will blend in perfectly with my MSI 770, too. And as for audio, I don't really think it would make too much of a difference between the Extreme4 and the GD65 since they both use the ALC1150 chip. Sure, MSI offers some software gimmicks for it, but that's nothing I can't achieve with 3rd Party SW. And I use great speakers and headphones (Bose Companion 20 and AudioTechnica ATH-M50/Bose QC15) so it'll sound great anyway. So, basically $50 for better build and looks?

It's a good $50 more expensive than the Extreme4, though. Is it really worth it? (Here in India) The GD65 is too.

Any particular reasons why?

So, I'm buying a new build. Currently decided specs: i5-4670k MSI GTX 770* Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB 1866MHz RAM Corsair 300R Case* Seasonic S12II 620W PSU* Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD* Pulling from old build: 1x1TB Seagate 7200RPM HDD *=(Already purchased) Now, for the motherboard. I'm currently looking at the ASRock Extreme4. But I'm open for suggestions. Don't plan on OC'ing right away, but I might a little while later. If possible, suggest something from this list : http://www.primeabgb.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?dir=asc&order=price&price=10000-20000&q=z87 Also, MSI Z87 MPOWER SP is an option. Thanks!
