So, I have been working and light gaming with bullshit pcs all the time. I got the Lenovo Y50 but it doesnt work well for one thousand f*king euros, It takes three minutes to turn on and it doesnt run crysis 3 at max, which is what I needed. So, I sold it along with my old Mouse and finally, Im going to be out of this. No companys, no lag, no i3, not celerons, not windows vista, not Intel HD Graphics. (ugh)

 

I decided to buy this.

I will post a build log when I ensure this is good :)

Help me, I wanna know if this is okay for 1080p gaming.

Forget about the 980 and get and use the integrated Intel Graphics with the CPU. They're awesome. :P jk

Keep in mind a 290x is about half the price

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

Sketcy PSU don't buy it. One does not simply cheap out on his/her PSU. Way too much money wasted on windows. I would just buy it from /r/microsoftsoftwareswap or g2a.

And would also switch the h100 to a kraken x61. Also have in mind of the 290x or dual 970s cheaper and powerfull. The dual 970s will outperform the 980.

Hi everyone! Thx for advice.

-Im angry. Thats why I curse.

-The kraken x61 was to expensive, so I decided to buy the h110 to save more money to buy a 980.

-I need nVidia cards because of the compatibility of the games I play.

-As I said, I was planning on buying the 970, but I saved more to buy a 980, which I know is better.

-SLI has problems  with recent games, I prefer buying a single superior GPU.

-I have already bought the windows 7 proffesional disk. I bought it when I sold my old laptop.

-Intel HD Graphics gives me penis cancer just by mentioning it. Please, have some empaty :'(
-I am going to buy a 2K monitor on my birthday >:DD!!

-Changed the PSU, thx br0
