Perfect-Twitchtv-Banner--Template---Imgu

Hello everyone! I am posting my very first build log thread. I was able to take advantage of the Intel Retail Edge program and I ordered the new i7 5930K, so X99 here I come. This is my first build since 2011 and I'm pretty excited.

I will be using the new build for gaming, twitch streaming, light content creation, and music production for my band.

EVGA FTW! 

 

 

I saw one of the first couple pics and was thinking to myself the only thing that could make this better would be to replace the power supply with an EVGA one. You read my mind.
