The thing I forgot to mention, I have windows 7 ult installed on a SSD for Benchmarking. I still need to install 8.1 Enterprise.

Oh that POS is getting replaced.

I work for public education, I get all windows operating systems for free. I choose windows 7 ultimate because it is very reliable. The performance difference between 8.1 pro and 7 is so minimal that I prefer the stability.

I have also ordered a new SLI Bridge, the one that comes with the X99 Deluxe is ugly and I lost my older ones.

Awesome, I ordered all the Parts for my new 5930K system. I am toying with making a build Log. -
I believe that the most important and best object of this giveaway is the power supply. Most people might overlook the power supply when in actuality it is what gives all the components good sustainable power. Without a great power supply like this Antec power supply a build may not be as power efficient and as silent.

I am having a hard time deciding what GTX 970 to choose from. Price is not a worry in this case and I am not sure which one to go with. I am looking at the Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 and the ASUS GTX 970 STRIX. I want the most for my money and I have read that the Gigabyte card gets better performance but has a few cases of Coil Whine, but on the ther side the ASUS card doesnt perform as well but has very very few cases of coil whine. All I need is a little guidence and I am makeing my decision this afternoon. Thanks for all the help, lions240.

I liked the car analogy, it allows people that aren’t that into computers to get a understanding of what tier of product the ASUS G550JK is. I also like how honest you are about some of the features like the external subwoofer, it’s hard to find a reviewer that doesn’t give an amazing review just because they were paid and given a free product.

Awesome!!

Need to set up a wireless connection with a 1 mile gap

Ubiquiti makes great hardware. If the nanobridge doesn't give you the performance you want and you are willing to shell out some money I would recomend Ubiquiti's AirFiber System. Its much more expensive than the nanobridge, but it may be worth it to you. -
You want to be using STP copper cable it will protect the cable from electrical interference.

All that means is that someone got the IP of the VPN banned. It may be a location lock, but if you are using the same VPN or Proxy as 150 other people and one of you gets banned on Twitch all 150 people will be banned from twitch because twitch uses an IP based blocking service.
