Thanks! That's true, I did not mention that I need it for graphics, so the GPU is imperative :) But from the replies here at least it seems I can skip the fancy cooler, good to know, thanks for the replies!

Actually it is one of the few that do fit, there was a few posts about these in-between motherboards on here, and at least one that does fit, which had the same dimensions as this one. Can't link to the thread now, I'm on my phone...

Hi! A quick question: can I skip spending on the fancy CPU cooler on the below build, and just use the stock cooler that comes with the i5-4960k? Or will it overheat? I don't plan on overclocking for now. PCPartPicker part list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/VMLCZL CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K...

WiSK, I think I might just do that :) all I can find is a swedish site listing it for 140euros, do you have a link to an EU seller from which I can order/pre-order? Preferably at a more reasonable price :) Thanks!

Haha, that's always the story when PC-shopping, there's always a great piece of gear JUST about to be released, just hold a tiny bit longer :) I guess I can wait a few weeks, in the US they're out, how much longer can it be until we get them in the EU! Thanks!

Phuncz, great catch, thank you! I saw many people saying they would use that so I thought it to be safe, but probably they are liquid coolers so it didn't matter to them. I found a rear blower from evga that should be fine (http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=02G-P4-2762-KR), and will...

As per the title, I've now picked the parts, and wanted to get a last sanity check that this will work and that I haven't made any mistakes that'll result in an impossible build. Lastly, I was wondering what a good way to air cool this, if I want a quiet machine that I will not be overclocking...

raymondo, great link tip! Searching for the mobo that I know fits on the forum of tonymac's gave me positive results for hackintoshing, great! http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/134540-ga-b85m-d2v-nic-issues.html...

Thanks! I've already learnt a lot from the replies this far, looks like it'll be a gigabyte motherboard then, http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4729#sp Ga-b85m-d2v seems to be the only one they do that fits. I didn't know abut kakewalk, thanks for that! Maybe they'll support...

Hi! I do live generative visuals performance to accompany music, for which I needed a strong portable computer (www.vimeo.com/channels/onar3d if you're curious, although the material there is old). The Ncase seems perfect since laptops are just to weak for what I do! I just got an Ncase M1 v2...
