I agree with this. Buy a cheaper case and get an ssd. I am sure that case doen't run cooler or quieter thank say a Corsair 550D or a Antec 280, and IMHO it sure doesn't look better either. Saving could at least get you a 128G ssd!
Just wanted to add though, that with all these parts listed I am pretty sure you budget is busted just like I did with mine. :P Thats OK though I usually go to about the 2000 range anyway.
The asus sabertooth Z77 overclocks well has a great onboard sound and also has the great fan control you want.
That ram is very overcloclable and can run 9-9-9-24 @1.35v Or if you would rather something else, this works great with the sabertooth board using XMP profile. 16G for $92. 16G is...
Good advice in this post! The Corsair 550D is a great case! Nice and quiet! If you like ASUS mobos and dont want pci slots how abot this.

Lesson learned on the HDD. One of the biggest reason I chose those is it seemed to have a lot of reviews on the egg and they seemed like less troubles than some of the other drives out there.
LOL I hope I detect a joke in that post. I was thinking it may have been too big. It does keep things...
Thanks for the compliment! I was planning for it all black so it was the look I was trying to achieve for sure. Only bad thing with it being all black is had had to use a flashlight a few times as it seems to suck all the light out. :P
I will try that with the second drive and also switch the...
Build went fairly well and uneventful with the exceptioin of the HDD's
1 of the HDD started clicking and went bad as soon as I formatted in disk management via windows.
The second one started giving smart errors 2 day later? Already sent the first out for RMA. Hopefully the second will last...
I sure will. I have everything together right now with the exception of the Ram, PSU, CPU, Cooler. I should have pics by tomorrow evening and hopefull should be able to post from the new computer. Will probably start a new thread here for a build thread.
Parts should start coming in today and all will be here by tomorrow! Thanks for the help guys! I will let yall know how it goes and give my thoughts on this vs my old system.
If you like the P180 then wh not the p280? You could sve a few dollars and IMO it looks better.

Ram OK.
Mobo ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77...
Thanks for the GPU recommendation! Looks like a nice card but it is sold out at the moment. Maybe it will be in stock when I am ready and in reality that is the last piece I need for the build.:thumbsup:
Ram: I have looked at some forum post and they say that the ram does not interfere just...
OK I started buying some of the system due to dang bank card limits and here is where I started. I changed my sytem limit to $2000 Since a) I want to stay with the 2770K and b) I was looking at mobo review and new egg and post on these forums and decided it to be a safer bet to stay with the...
Fastman, Can you give a list of the parts you used? Particularly memory? I too am worried about clearance with the evo with all memory slots filled. I should have most of my stuff ordered by tomorrow evening.
OK this is the cpu cooler I choose?

Forgot to put CPU cooler in main post. Suggestions for good air cooling and quiet as priority? Also I have Klipsh 2.1 speakers alreadt so don't need speakers.
Thanks for the reply. I definately don't need wireless since is like 3 ft from a router and my house is fully wired and wired speeds are much faster. The deluxe is more expensive and doesn't have any extra features I need. the V-pro is a few dolars cheaper and is close in specs. I could maybe be...
Hi folks,
I am thinking about building a new system very soon. I have built 3 previous systems before the last being a K-8sli quad core system. My current system is a Dell XPS 435 MT which has an Intel x-58 motherboard, I-7 920 Processor and 12G of Ram in triple channel, GTS240 video card, 2...
