Oh boy do I feel dumb the card is hitting 90c

I did sort of the same thing but I bought a server/workstation instead of just the motherboard. HP Z800 with 2 x 2.67GHz quad core hyper threaded cpus and 12GB of ECC memory for $400. Heres a link to my setup when I bought it.
 

 
Then I put 2 x Xeon X5672 quad core 3.20GHz hyper threaded cpus that I got for cheap in it. I also added another 12GB of ECC memory and a GTX970. Total with my 240GB SSD is about $1000-1100.
 
Her is a link to the finished setup.
 

 

 
Benchmarks and gaming on the system
 

 

 
Le me know what you guys think about this for a budget setup to game and edit. I couldn't find anything better for the price. 

No Mans Sky

I almost feel like this is pirated since its on g2a...

If they don't want to do it then don't force them/him, before something goes wrong and they blame you for it.

CS:S all day baby. 
 
Also this, since it was true at one point and still relevant:
 

shhh don't even.

step 1. plug things in
step 2. don't plug in other hard drives if you have an ssd if you don't know how to differentiate drives in installer
step 3. install windows to said SSD
step 4. let windows install
step 5. turn off machine
step 6. plug in other hard drive/s
step 7. turn on pc
step 8. install drivers
step 9. install software (steam/chrome/firefox/skype/etc)
step 10. profit

So SNES 2 anyone???

While I'd never want to play a game at a non-native resolution or with a framerate less than 60, Graphics is not everything.  Since I probably can't explain it as well as the guys at Extra Credits you can watch this:

Nintendo has nailed the style they wanted to create in every game they've made, and when you emulate their previous games in your Native Resolution they look even better. Just look at Skyward Sword run on the Dolphin Emulator:
 

 
Because Nintendo makes such great games I would never want them to make a game with an Aesthetic style that they didn't want to make, but that isn't to say that they might want to make a non-cartoon style in the future. I would never want the fanbase to force it on them though.
 
However, since the Wii was the last Nintendo console my family owned when I lived with them, as long as Nintendo keeps developing their games as their own platform exclusives, they will never get any of my money.  It's as simple as that.
 
EDIT: I guess this also means that if you don't screw up the simple things like platform exclusiveness, rebindable keys, no framerate locks, and extended resolution support you're essentially future proofing your PC game.

wow maybe this is also hinting towards Smash 4 not being as slow as molasses and actually apealing towards the ssbm crowd. If this is so I will throw my money at this plastic box SO hard.

LOL to the NCIX link going to a Lenovo Y50 search.

The new revision of the v300 uses a slower NAND

can we please stop posting mircocenter CPU links? seriously maybe 5% of us live near one. instore pickup is bullshit.

Mine just shipped!

1600MHz will be fine for you.

Check for pulse and any signs of breathing. 

intel needs to learn to that a lot of people are poor.

Vcore at 1.5v, you are crazy. Whatever guide you are using is bad. 
 
Haswell is a complete crap shoot when it comes to overclocking, your results are going to be unique to your chip, so go into this with an open mind.  Don't push your chip higher than 1.3v with just a 212 EVO.
 
WHENEVER YOU STRESS TEST, SET VOLTAGE TO MANUAL/CONSTANT!!!

     This is a long process, so be patient, start low and work your way up, don't start high or in the middle.  Don't delid or purchase a more expensive CPU cooler until you are sure that temperatures are the only thing holding you back.  Without sounding like I am gloating, I personally use an i5-4670k + 212 EVO and my 24/7 OC is 4.7Ghz @ 1.275v.  This is a good example of the silicon lottery, your results are going to be much more dependent upon the chip, and not the temperatures.  Temperatures are a big factor, but it is not the only factor.

likely still needs BIOS update to get the processor ID code

Dude we need to start one of those (ﾉಠ_ಠ)ﾉ Backwards compatibility or riot(ﾉಠ_ಠ)ﾉ things.
