    30" - 1600p - $699 CAD. Buy?

    Yeah the Korean displays are better value. Can I just use a North American cord instead of the Korean power cord? Or do you have to use an adapter?

    SteamOS build. Will it play 1080?

    Good points! Thanks for the input. It does seem a bit early. Id rather build something like this than buy a PS4 as i believe in the steam platform. Im planning on throwing something together and playing with the steam beta. Then upgrading it as needed over the years.

    Which mobo? 2600K

    I think I like the Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3. The maximus is too small and I realized I would need the extra pci slots for wifi card. I currently use a gigabyte and dont really like the oc stability and options in the tweaker... Is the P8 a good board for OCing? Thanks for the replies
