| 1308660 | 2012-10-25 20:08:00 | Nice build, but a question if I may... You've gone for a high end enthusiast motherboard, and an aftermarket CPU cooler, but NOT the K version of the 3570. I find that curious. No plans to overclock, presumably? |

| 1308661 | 2012-10-25 20:21:00 | My Advice - take your time, be methodical, don't rush or get frustrated That was the best advice someone gave me. In particular, practise putting the cooler on (see Wainuitech's advice on a recent thread) |

| 1308662 | 2012-10-25 20:35:00 | Wow nice build there man... During the build touch the metal of the case every now and then just so any static in you is discharged. First i would install the mobo mount thingys and the i/o sheild then install ram, cpu and cpu cooler before putting the mobo in the case. Install the optical drive, hd and anything else that connects to the mobo by cabel before you put the mobo in, this includes the psu, route all the psu cables to the right places and make the cabels at the back as neat as you can then Install the mobo and put the gpu in and plug everything in.... Then install the os. P.s. bullet points are for schmucks. Be careful with criticisms if you haven't checked your own spelling :devil |

I find that curious. No plans to overclock, presumably? Yes, $537 for a high end 3 slot PCIe motherbaord and 1x7950 GPU and no K CPU?.....Save yourself $300 and get a 2nd GPU, or just save your money! www.computerlounge.co.nz Oh, I got a white NZXT H2 the other day, beautiful case w\ builtin fan controller, case dampening and SATA Dock on the top.... |
