pretty sweet

Why such a big SSD?

[DarrenP]

Why such a big SSD?

Why not man, When you can get a 1TB SSD for like 1-2 hundred bucks more why not?

[SSOB]

Looks awesome, maybe add in some lighting ( Phobya , Bitfenix.) And change the ugly noctua fans out for some good looking Bequiet, noiseblocker fans.

Also maybe upgrade CPU To 4770K sinse you are spending 3K?

For the fans i reccomend Bequiet Silent wings 2.

Other than that nice build 

[Anthony10]

cool, cant believe you got a 1tb ssd though

do you care about aesthetics @adte12345 ? because if so then i have a couple suggestions

[Ryan Leech]

If you're getting all of that then you might as well step it up to an i7 4770K

[nj4ck]

nice build. You don't really need 16 GB of RAM for gaming though. And I don't see a PSU?

Silent Wings 2 are great fans infact I have 6 in my build but they aren't suitable for radiator applications

NO,NO, NO.

 

DONT DIE YET!

 

Z97 is 1-2 weeks away and you go Z87..

 

 

Thats not how it works. Wait that 1-2 weeks, then you can get a Asus Z97 board or whateva your like, With new new...

 

Dandandan

 

SATA FUCKING EXPRESS!

 

Instead of 6 GBit per secon, you get 10GB per second, Up to 40-55% better speeds...

Also you get the new i5 5670k:DD

 

Sata express HDDs will come around end of this year, but its worth it.

 

 

( If i were you i would skip all this shit and wait for newer Z97 boards and broadwell, along with the new Sata express Hdds)

Wait, what bequiet fans are static optimized than, i thought they were the Silent wings... Thanks for correcting me tho!

Nope airflow optimized No problem. 

[SSOB]

Nope airflow optimized No problem. 

Yes but which are static pressure optimized?

[Izaya Orihara]

Yes but which are static pressure optimized?

From be quiet? None of which I'm aware. 

[adte12345]

For the PSU i have a 550W semi modular from corsair

 

I don't really care too much about aesthetics, but lighting would be nice

 

I have a 1tb ssd because i wanted more storage on my Macbook pro 

 

Is it really such a big difference with the z97 mobo?  I dont feel like waiting that long and is the new sata express worth it? The wait for the new cpu will be quite a while and is there really a difference?

[SSOB]

From be quiet? None of which I'm aware. 

I'm pretty sure they have one that performs on par with NF-F12

[adte12345]

I couldnt find the silent wing 2 fans on www.komplett.no and the 4770k is about 150$ more expensive than the 4670k. Is it worth it?

Sounds perfect, although a few modifications...

The direct cu 2 from as us doesn't work with the 250d because the heat pipes can melt the window

Is the red better than the black as a secondary drive?

Other than that thanks for the help!

The black is just a gimmick it's a tiny bit faster than other HDD's however it is way to loud. The red drives are very quiet and don't fail often. 

Also just get the MSI on then. I just prefer the look of the Dcu2 cooler. 

 

No problem  

[RapeGod]

get the msi one. Z97 with sata express isn't worth it.
