| 1210699 | 2011-06-21 05:37:00 | Get the K version 2500 if possible....+ $33 for Hyper 212+, you can run 4.5GHZ no problem! 4.7 (pressf1.co.nz) |

| 1210702 | 2011-06-21 21:57:00 | Right, will do. Will the stock cooling be good enough? Sorry? Stock cooling uses push pins, and they just dont do it for me.. The cooler in my sig cost about $35 buck and has bolt through setup so much better. Oh, and you should seriously try and get that case...It will last you many builds, and is one of the best for cooling around. |

| 1210703 | 2011-06-21 23:32:00 | Only get the K version if you plan to try overclocking or want the option later, if not stick with the cheaper version as the stock performance is the same. Same goes for stock cooling, it's perfectly fine if you don't plan on overclocking. On the other hand if you think you will/ might overclock the easiest time to install an aftermarket cooler is during the initial build, depending on your case you can end up dismantling the entire pc to fit one later. |

| 1210704 | 2011-06-22 00:38:00 | Right, May as well pick on up straight away. Alright, so with that build in mind that comes to just under the $2000 so it's spot on. And the build will begin next Tuesday. I may have to come back to you guys for help during the build but we will see how it goes. Cheers for all of you help so far! |

| 1210706 | 2011-06-23 11:33:00 | +1 for gtx560ti +1 for corsair hx650 (nice unboxing experience too) +1 for hyper212+ (this only includes a single 120mm fan, if you want to overclock i recommend a 2nd 120mm fan for the other side of the cooling stack. The 120mm arctic cooling f12 pwm fan allows you to run both cpu fans on the single cpu fan socket on the motherboard.) also grab a small tube of arctic silver 5 thermal paste have fun with your build and dont freak out if it doesn't boot 1st time, just let us know :) :pf1mobmini: |

So long as I read the manual and dont put case cover back on for the first boot attempt, I should be fine :D. I'll keep you posted for during the build with how it's going and any complications I have during the build. And I'll take your advise on the case SolMiester. I'll drop the NZXT one. |

A lot of people dont like to waste money on cases, however I have a different opinion. 1)- A decent case will last through several builds. 2)- A decent case will help to keep your components quiet with noise dampening and cool with great air flow and space. 3)- A decent case doent need to be hidden as your embarrassed at the crassness of it. Actually, the Raven tilts the motherboard through 90 degrees so that the I/O board faces up, this is nice for large card support and cabling which is ducted out the top at the back instead of up and down the back side. And of course is has cooling second to none with basic in at the bottom out at the top flow.... |
