awesome build

you could save some bucks by buying windows from reddit 

also, it's not worth to get a wd black drive. get a blue drive which will run more quiet and it will cost less

 

also, i'd take the corsair 750d over this case. it would look alot more modern and classy. that's my opinion

Thanks , I thought about the 750D, however the optical drives on the front not being flush bothers my OCD a bit. However the WD Black was just cause I've never had one, always had seagate drives fall into my possession. I heard games are good on those tho? Maybe I'll have to look into that or Install Windows 7 (I have the disc and just upgrade it).

as ssd's reached the limit of sata 3, hdd's have reached the limit of their technology. you won't notice any difference in getting a wd blue over a wd black. in the worst case, the difference would be of at most 5 mb/s

That little huh, wow times have changed. I guess I will look into that, thanks for the tip. They really make them to be out to be something.

Cool build, but I'd go with an Asus/Gigabyte/MSI board instead, I don't generally trust ASRock

 

EDIT: Also, if I hear of one more build called 'The Beast' I'm going to flip my shit.

It blends in after looking at it in real life.....

I really struggled between Asus & Asrock, but I couldn't justify the $500 dollars for a motherboard. Just like I couldn't justify the $1000 dollars for the 8-core I was going to originally put into this beast. The MSI doesn't have enough red pop to me, but I do agree they are better boards.

I know I was just giving you a hard time. I really struggled between the two cases tho. Eventually I want to water cool this thing with a custom loop.
