    Need help with GA-Z77X-UP7 & AX850 8 pin conectors.

    I recently purchased a GA-Z77X-UP7 mobo and Corsair Professional Series Gold AX850 psu. The motherboard requires (2) 8 pin connectors. I seem to have 2 x 4+4-Pin ATX/EPS 12V that come with the psu. These are my questions: 1- The 4+4 connectors have different pin connectors to the PSU. One is...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    At this point ,I don't mind the price/performance since having incorporated all the previous recommendations has enabled me to keep the total below my budget limit. :D

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    Actually I did get the SSD. I just forgot to post it: Sorry. Here is what I'm getting. SSD: Crucial M4 CT512M4SSD2 2.5" 512GB The previous total also includes the SSD. The reason I forgot to post it was that I copied and pasted the original build submission as a template and forgot it didn't...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    Ok. This is the build I have adopted so far based on the recommendations I have been given. I have adopted all of them except for the case. I used to have an Antec P160 which I then upgraded to what I presently have Lian-Li PC-G75B . Call me shallow, noobish, dumb or inexperienced I still love...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    I agree with everything mentioned by everyone. I'll soon post an update of the setup which has all the suggestions given over the next couple of days. The only thing I haven't settled yet on is the case. If only the Cooler Master Cosmo II came in a smaller size. I'm excited about incorporating...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    I never mentioned I wanted black RAM but now that I see it I want it!!. Nice find rastaban! I'm definitely going with an SSD drive now. I read about the Noctua Dh14 fans so that also seems like a no brainer. I'll probably start with a SSD as primary and a single 2TB HDD for data. In time I can...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    Gosh, that's alot for me to take in at one time. LOL.Alright back to the drawing board. I just like the big size case because it's easy for me to build in and I'll admit it for vanity reasons as well. The case just looks sexy to me. If a smaller case provides better airflow I will certainly take...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    I guess my main concern is to make sure the parts play nice with each other. I'll check into the SSD suggestion. Never really thought about it before. As for the case, it's just a personal preference. Just trying top keep the total as near to 3K as possible: Answers to the sticky are roughly as...

    Need Review of My Pending Rig Setup

    This is my planned setup for my new rig. Main use is for gaming and I'm planning on OC'ing to about 4.4-4.5 on air. I'm not interested in water cooling as I have no experience with it. All parts are from Newegg. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Case: Cooler Master Cosmos...

    Please critique my loop!

    Thanks for all the replies! This is GREAT! I'm waiting on the QX9650 to come out this week. If not I'll settle for a QX6600 till then. Arcygenical- The Danger Den Black Ice GTX Xtreme has 3 x 120mm fans. I just read about the Aquastream XT in this forum earlier so I'll wait until Sharka gets...

    Please critique my loop!

    I'm planning to build a water cooled system using Aqua Computer parts as much as possible. This will be my first water cooled rig. The parts will be purchased in 2 phases due to finances. These are the parts which I plan on getting initially: Phase I Case.....Lian-Li PC-G75B Mobo....Maximus...

    Best heatsink that will fit in Lian-Li PCG75B?

    I just recently purchased a Lian-Li PG75B and was wondering if a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme would fit in it? Will it be able to clear the PSU bay above the mobo? If not, what's the next best option? :confused:
