Didn't even think of that. If I use a switch, isn't it still on the university network?

So I think I'm gonna put the CPU and gpu under water. Would it be better to use CM's version of the H220, or buy a separate pump and rad?(like the apogee 2)

Buying a router just to make a network to use a NAS with just sounds like a waste of money especially if there are alternatives. The router isn't doing me any favors except for running the NAS. Doesn't seem worth it.

If they fix the noise issue........then it really will be the perfect PSU.

I think I'll just use 1 low speed HDD(like a WD Red), and then buy another ssd once prices go down for games.I feel like having 2 HDDs is hard in this case.

A NAS would be pointless for me because I dont have my own network at university.

Ah, that is disappointing. Do you know of any multi-bay usb 3.0 enclosures? I can't find any on the egg, they all seem to be e sata.

Thanks for that link, very helpful

Does the e sata port have port multiplier? I'm looking for a way to connect a bunch of hard drives to the computer externally since a SFF case has limited space. Want to know if this board can do that with e sata.

How are the WD Blacks 2.5 compared to the Samsung F1 3.5?

Has anyone considered using a 2.5" HDD in there case? Is that a good idea? I'm just trying to fit a 2 HDDS in my computer, and a way I thought of is using one of the SSD slots with a 2.5" HDD. Any good performing ones? edit: I just saw that the Silverstone PSU only has 3 Sata cables. So if I...

Can anyone help me figure out a good set up for me? I honestly don't know whether I should go with air cooling or water cooling, try to fit HDDs in their or go external, etc. Basically, I want a quiet high powered system. Probably be a i5-4670k and a AMD 290. Originally I was thinking of...

Is low profile memory needed? I have some G.Skill ripjaws in my current case, could I re use them?

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm trying to come up with a high performance low noise system. If the psu wasn't loud this would be a lot easier :p

Yea you are right. I just like thinking about what my build will be.
