Kind of "Dreaming" of a build right now, however. I am working on a build and would like some help on improving it by adding things that could do better, and cheaper. This build is already around 3K and I hope to lower it. But I am probably gonna keep it at around 3k. Even though this build probably isn't gonna happen, i'm most likely gonna downgrade to either AMD or 4770k. We'll see lol.


This build i'm trying to do is gonna be doing everything. - Recording -Rendering -Video Games and possibly Over Clocking to something better/higher. Anyways, here is the build.

The mobo doesn't fit the case,I think.

It's EATX.The case supports ATX if I'm not wrong.

Even PCPP says so :P

 

NZXT H440 (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case and Asus Rampage IV Black Edition EATX LGA2011 Motherboard are not compatible.

Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2400 Memory operating voltage of 1.65V exceeds the Intel Ivy Bridge-E CPU recommended maximum of 1.5V+5% (1.575V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.5V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum.

Yeah, would be something like that if I can't get the money for the first one.

Well, I saw someone on PCPP doing the same Mobo and Case. Said he just moved the Hard Drives cages for the Mobo to fit. Don't know though, I like the Case due to the PSU not showing. =p
