[Build Log] The Yellow Dane - 280x, intel i5 4670k & MSI Mpower z97

[Rekx]

Introduction

Welcome to my first build log on linustechtips. Let me be clear about this, it's not my first computer build, this is the fourth computer that I'm assembling togehter for someone else. 

 

Information about the build: 

 

This build is not for myself, this is a build for one of my brothers friends. The computer is mostly made to play League Of Legends, Counter Strike Global Offensive and maybe a bit Battlefield 4. I named it The Yellow Dane because im from Denmark(the cilent is also from Denmark) and because the build will be mainly yellow/black.I will be overclocking the 4670k, that is also one of the reason I'd have gone with the MSI MPOWER, plus its freaking yellow and beautiful. I will maybe be adding some white lights at the end of the build, but am not sure yet. All pictures will be taken with my note 3, so don't except amazing quality ;-)

Thanks :-) im so excited to overclock with it. I really hope the i5 4670k will overclock well, so i can see how much i can push it with the MPower. Though to be honest the main reason i got the Mpower for this build was the color.

A new package has arrived. I wonder what it may be?

[Rekx]

It was the HDD :-p
