    New Build - Buying Friday. Some questions

    diizzy: The machine I'm on now I have had for about 4 years and I can easily make it last another year but I'm impatient. But thanks for your input. Warrior: I already have an SSD in that cart and 16gb of RAM. More of either will do nothing for performance for what I'm looking to do. But thank...

    Building a new system in phases

    Yeah Haswell-E has me wanting to delay a little bit and I *will* be going water cooling. For cooler for now though I'll be using an Swiftech H320. What mobo would you recommend instead of the rampage then for SLi with some space between the two cards? Yeah I'm aware of the first point and as...
