    Helping friend build 1900USD PC for gaming/art.

    What's the issue with Gigabyte? I have no issues with ASUS/Gigabyte, always assumed they were of similar quality. Avoiding that ASRock board because I'm not a fan of the Qualcomm NIC. If I bumped up to the Z87-A, I might as well get the Z87-Pro with built in Wifi, since it's the same cost as a...

    1200-1400 USD Gaming PC build.

    Got everything running, was right about BIOS update. Don't think my chip is a great OCer - I was bumping up clocks at 1.4v (the most I feel comfortable with for a 24/7 OC) just to see what I could hit and got bluescreens at 4.6 GHz, but I have quite a bit of voltage overhead at 4.4, which I...

    I've used this RAM before with this exact mobo and it worked fine. I'll try reseating it. Way ahead of you, didn't do much. I'll try it again. Edit: Reseating RAM gets it to boot - now I've got a blank screen with a blinking cursor at the top left and B2 at the bottom right. Edit 2: Stuck in...

    1200-1400 USD Gaming PC build.

    Ordered parts and put everything together tonight. The fans spin up for a few seconds then the system turns off. If I leave the power switch on the back turned on, it will continually do this. Any advice on how to troubleshoot? Edit for video...

    1200-1400 USD Gaming PC build.

    Considering that it's 85 on Amazon, is there any merit to spending 20 more dollars for a 2 fan solution like the h100i or NZXT Kraken X60? Note that I'm willing to switch cases to accommodate this.

    What are your suggestions for all-in-one liquid cooling solutions, then?

    1200-1400 USD Gaming PC build.

    Don't really want to do watercooling, as there's a not zero chance I move this rig back and forth between two places once every few months - air cooling seems more solid for that. Is there somewhere I can see temp differences between the Coolermaster and the Thermaltake? What's the difference...

    Would you change out anything?

    1200-1400 USD Gaming PC build.

    OK, now I'm probably ordering tomorrow, but I've thought about a few things and switched stuff out in an effort to spend less money for similar performance. My old computer has an i5-2500k and a MSI P67A-G45 (B3) that are in working condition, and looking at benchmarks I don't see much reason...
