Re: Gaming PC Build. Update & Preview

You can if you want. Or I can delete the old one. I just thought it'd be easier on the eyes not to scroll through an older discussion since a few things have changed like now knowing the size of tower I'm working with, type of PSU, & other factors I've decided on. my Apologizes if I broke some t...

Re: Building my Dream Machine! Questions & Suggestions

Thank you everyone for all the input! I'm getting a lot of different idea's that I wouldn't have even considered. I've seen some "Have to figure out what the OP wants" discussion so I figured I'd clear that up first. Also, I've been informed that newer graphic cards will be coming out in S...

Re: Building my Dream Machine! Questions & Suggestions

After reading a bunch more reviews and such, I've decided to opt for the 16GB RAM. I guess 16GB really is "still overkill" and 32GB would just be a waste of money that i can put towards making a different part of my Build better.

Re: Building my Dream Machine! Questions & Suggestions

Graphics card- Wait. The only 'safe bet' for graphics cards right now is Nvidia's Titan. It's the only card with great performance and 6GB of RAM, that you can guarantee will run multiple monitors with multiple cards without significant issues.

Re: Building my Dream Machine! Questions & Suggestions

Unless you know what applications that you're going to run that need more than 4 cores / 8 threads and 32GiB of memory, you might get better results for less money with Haswell (Core i7-4770K), than with Sandy-Bridge-E. Good LGA1150 motherboards with Z87 are priced better than LGA2011 x79 boards, t...
