Herp derp.

Anyways, been looking into alienware more, and figured I could save ~500 bucks by getting the parts myself. Can yall check my work and make sure it all fits together?

you guys know the new intel chips are more cheaper now, course they haven't release the new mobos since their latest fuckup.

Cheaper?

Der fuck?

[Tellemurius]

the latest high end i7 2600k is worth $329 and has more performance than the i7 980x for $1000

I think his issue is with grammar here.

[Tellemurius]

DAMN YOU GRAMMAR NAZIS, yea that is horribly worded, god thats even stupid after reading that again XC.

[breadbocks]

I was poking at your grammar fail.

Also, I know. But that extra 130 is a bit much.

I have an i7-860 and that Corsair H50 cooler.  Thing is a ☼beast☼.
Just today, I added 200 MHz to all four of my clock speeds, and the temperatures literally did not move.
Granted, I haven't taken it very far yet, but you really can't beat the H50 in cooling performance for the price.
I haven't even added a second fan to it yet.
