    Think of it like a Union. While not categorized by job type the organization will allow people to pool resources, both money and people, to accomplish mutually beneficial goals. Ideally traders who need protection that are part of this org. will look for other people who are also a part of the org first for help.
     
    Just one example.

    Ok, in that case you're in luck, no soldering is required with that PSU. Its got a 2-pin fan header instead of the fan cables being directly soldered to the PCB.
        Its not easy to find 2-pin fans, but if you look around on ebay you might be able to find one. You could also use a 3-pin to 2-pin fan adapter and basically use any 3-pin fan you want.

    You will not even hit close to 750W. You can see in Linus' 4k build video that his dual 780Ti hit 625 in synthetic stress tests so you are fine

    You'd be much better off doing the sli, by far 750 watts should be fine, even if you lower the oc a bit 2 780s will blow a 780ti out of the water any day.

    If you have Uverse, you can't replace it. Your cable/phone/tv all go to one box, and it acts as a modem/router/service. You can replace the "router" portion to a degree. Theres guided and articles on doing that both here and on other places if you want to know about that option.. .
     
    As for the post.. 4 routers in 5 years is pretty good with att. I had them, and went thru 5 routers in 3 months. Service outages ranging from a couple days to a couple weeks. Never again will i use them for anything.

    Well get another one, the pentium is a awesome cpu and all but you have a full working motherboard so why waste it, get a 3570K and upgrade when Skylake comes or something lol that CPU is really almost the same as a 4690K..

    The Cutlass' main claim compared tot he freelancer is it's manuverability and salvage configuration.
     
    with 16 thrusters it will litterally be able to fly circles around other ships.
     
    It comes base with a a tractor beam, which will allow you to salvage or search and rescue much easier than other ships.

    You can run a mix of high and ultra settings on 1440p I would say.
     
    You can also look for the cheapest IPS 1440p on pcpartpicker, its currently like $400 USD in the US for it.

    There is very little difference between blocks. I'd suggest just going with whichever one you like the look of. The nickel plating is almost 100% for aesthetics.
     
    I'm personally buying the components for my loop (EK compression fittings came today, they're sexy as hell) and I've gone for the EK-Supremacy Clean CSQ - Acetal+Nickel

    welcome to the LinusTechTips Forums!
     
    since the CPU usually is the warmest, you'd want to be able to cool it the best.
    since this is your first h2o build, then i'd suggest starting with a CPU loop and
    build into it more with upgrades. easiest would be an alphacool XT45 360 for
    the roof of the 750D. this will easily take care of the CPU and when you have
    the funds and knowledge then incorporate GPU into the 360.
     
    also depending on your overclocking skills, hardware and knowledge, you
    have room to use a 240 radiator incase the temperatures or fan speed is too
    loud. the more radiator surface area the lower the fan speed (fan noise) can
    be to tolerate.

    If you don't know whether or not you will be cooling your GPU right off the bat, there are products like the Glacer 240L that are designed for this. 
     
    It is an expandable AIO, so if l later on you decide "Hey, I want to liquid cool my Graphics card too" then you can just buy some tubing, compression fittings, and a GPU block and call it a day. Albeit you would probably want more radiator space, it should get the job done just fine. (I mean, the R9295x2 runs on a single rad)

    If you're desperate to spend money, you could swap the PSU for something like a Corsair AX760. Heard bad things about those XFX units.
     
    Failing that, get an AIO cooler. Corsair h100i will fit in your case, and i think the h110 will as well.

    If by FanSpeed you mean SpeedFan then yes, it is quite hard to set up but once you have it set up it works flawlessly. I have all my fans controlled by SpeedFan and it took a while to set up but I love it
