Yes I already have this CPU.
But for another build I use an 4790K and It feels not that fast.
And I like the X79 base much more than the Z97. It looks so much better.
 
 
One of the highlights for this build arrived yesterday.
What could it be?

 
Its an sLight made by Martmamod/Stempel-Hauser.
Great company with nice service and high quality products.

On all pictures is an protectie sheet on the slight but it looks great anyway.

fits very well. (not the final graphics cards.)

this equal distribution of light :wub:


 
 

Watching later. Need to get some work done and stop being a lazy FUCK.

I'm sorry
 

I'm sorry
 

The damage - it took me 2 hours and 10 mins to get home from school - a journey that usually takes 45 mins.
The bus lines were 10x as long as normal
Busses were so ful that no one could be picked up
People were standing in front of busses for them to stop and pick them up
My bus (as many others) broke down (mine got its mirror cliped by a van and the van didn't stop - bus driver couldn't drive without mirror).
Wind was putting trees down all over the place - especially main roads.
People in Australia when it's raining drive like its a massive snow storm - that and our premier telling everyone to go home isn't a good combination...
Houses all around the outskirts in some places have been evacuated and a house is already destroyed
This is also only the 2nd day of this and it is expected to continue all week - at least hopefully for ANZAC day it
is better
And right now, I think a shower could only make me drier

Sydney is turning into a graveyard....................... Of umbrellas
http://www.standard.net.au/story/3024068/the-great-umbrella-graveyard-sydney-photos/?cs=135#slide=15

I'm Canadian - but I live in Australia

So currently here is Sydney we are having some, well - best way/the only way to put it is shit.
Anyways, the wind is crazy and it is pouring rain - bad weather - but we are told that the best way to deal with this is to go home early... If the economical impact of getting to work late wasn't bad enough already

I know - that is why i am getting the more expensive asus ones with a response time of 5 ms

Frozen CPU has been a mess the past month and a bit with it being trashed and stuff, and the employees all being fired/quitting.
Soooo, I knew about the Frozen CPU thing, but not much about it in detail, so I decided to research it a bit more.
I looked around found some pics ( Thanks to @ - http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/317091-frozen-cpu-damage-pictures-warehouse-office/)
I then decided to look if there were any more updates, and saw that 11 days ago, this came up:
http://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/2wczsr/unofficial_statement_released_by_wife_of/
Seems a bit dodgy, but a guess this whole situation is a mess.
I was curious and looked it up on google maps - and I found this:

 
Google doesn't usually do stuff without final details, so it seems like Frozen CPU is guaranteed over. I don't think I would ever order from there again (they were cheaper and has way better service - and I live on the other side of the world!) as the owner seems like a nutcase. I just hope the former employees or someone go in as a team, seal up the place and do something about the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of parts and stuff in the warehouse - sell them off maybe to other suppliers and give the people back who have money being all held back back to them.
 
 
Hope this isn't something that hasn't been posted before and hopefully it informs you guys!
 

The problem with Australian internet is something not many people know about. Telstra (also know as the motherfuckers sho rip you off with shitty service and internet), was government owned until the 1980s-90s. When they broke up, they owned EVERY SINGLE INTERNET AND PHONE LINE IN THE COUNTRY. The unfortunate part of this, is that they have such a huge monopoly of the country, that no other company has bothered or payed for new cables. So, as they don't need to spend the money on better cables, they haven't. Only recently have iiNet started laying a couple of cables down in some locations, but it is hard with current restrictions, regulations and Telstra always coming after you in one way or another.

When you find yourself explaining that you are infact NOT hacking the computer you are working on when you open the command prompt

When you can casually name most PC parts and useful software without even having to think about it.

You check the specs of every computer that you go on, no matter where or what it is.
