Project Tri-Snake

[monjanger]

The first thing I want to say is that I am not a Razer fanboy. I used to have a Razer Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth 2014 and I thought it was okay at the time, then I got a K65 and realized how trash Razer is. I do like there logo though, and I do like the design of the case, sleek matte black. I was originally going to paint a H440 Red to a complete Matte Black theme but I ended up deciding not to risk it. I have been waiting for atleast 4 months for Skylake, not to be impressed but decided to go with it. Hoping the MoBo is going to be like previous Asus TUF series motherboards, and thats about it. Everythings set.

since you're spending lots of money, you should upgrade your ssd to the samsung 850 pro or the extreme pro by sandisk. they are faster ssd's. you could also get an msata 850 evo or an m.2-2280 samsung sm951

There really isnt much of a performance increase between the 850 evo and the 850 pro, i may consider it though.

I do plan to have a build log, but with school coming up and everything, it may be a bit hectic.
