Which Z97 board?

Sorry guys i was out of town. I'll get the UDH5 BK and I'll order when the H220X will be available. Although I'm still not so sure lol. I'm hesitating between that one and the Hero or the Hero if it becomes available in Canada. Any idea when it will be?

This is interesting. I'm not sure if I'll be able to get one, but do you think the Z series price will drop?

Best 120hz monitor?

What the advantage of Display Port over DL DVI? I could buy a slightly used one for the same. And for the the G-sync story, I could wait and get one but i will to cheap of the GPU. I'll have to get a gtx 870 or 860 instead of 880. Do you think it would be worth? I've heard of G-sync but I...

Which Z97 board?

I don't understand. Why the Asus MVII Gene instead of the Asus MVII hero? And it might sound silly but I can't stand the color scheme of the SOC force and OCF. And on paper the Extreme 4 seemed to me better than the Hi-Fi z97WE. Could you explain what you mean?

Which Z97 board?

Choosing the right motherboard is so hard. I just want to try them all. Although I'm starting to have little preference for the UD5H-BK. I made a poll. I'll just get the motherboard with the most vote when I'll buy.

Best 120hz monitor?

Hmmm, this is gonna hurt my wallet. What about the XL2411Z. What's the difference between this one and the one you recommend me? Because the xl2411z is 100$ cheaper. And can't I also buy a DIY kit for BenQ's monitor? And how do you install it? Also does it void your warranty? Anyway thanks...

Best 120hz monitor?

Hi guys. I'm looking for a new monitor because my old one is broken. I'll getting a new rig with my monitor with a gtx 880. So i think a 120hz monitor would be a nice choice to utilise my GPU. But there's so many monitors that I have no idea which i should get. Also I'm planning to do a lot of...

Which Z97 board?

Thanks for your help. And I have a question, when it comes down to overclocking, what's better between 6 phases and doubler and 8 true phases? Another point for the ud5h bk. What does this board offers more than the ud3h bk? And is there a way to hide the gold on the VRM's heatsinks without...

Which Z97 board?

Thanks for your answers. :) This board looks kinda cheap. I can spend up to 200$ but less would preferable haha. Do you think I could achieve a 4.5ghz overclock with a i5 4690k on that board? Also does it support Sata express? And a more aestethically sober board would be nice.:D...

Which Z97 board?

Huh, it depends what you mean by enthusiast. If your mean getting the performances possible without a regard toward price/performances, then no. The reason i looking for a new rig in the first place is because my brother cheaped on the motherboard and on the CPU, which won't for a new GPU...

Which Z97 board?

Hey what's up everyone? I've finally given up on the idea of making a mini tower because the case I'm looking for, the Bitfenix Aegis takes too much time to be released. So instead, I'll get the Phantek Enthoo Luxe. So I'm looking for a case with a great audio chipset that can go past...

Should I wait for the gtx 8**?

Thanks a lot for your help. Also do you guys know if AMD is going to release a new generation of graphic card to counter NV's gtx 8** I wouldn't see the point in upgrading too now if I had a decent graphic card lol. But my problem here is that the graphic card I could use is around 3 years...

Should I wait for the gtx 8**?

Yeah I think I will wait because it would also allow me to put more money on the CPU and get an I7 4790k instead of the I5 4690k. The only things that I'm worried of is the price of the future card. I think I could spend up 450$. What do you think I could get for that price? The Gtx 880 or...

Should I wait for the gtx 8**?

Thanks for all answers guys. I know it's a hard question and the only true way to know would be to wait as 3D vagabond said, but if you were in my stead what would you do? I'm not sure if I'll be able to get a gtx 880 sadly. :D I think the GTX 870 would more be in the price range I could...

Should I wait for the gtx 8**?

Hey guys :) I'm new in the world of hardware and the only generation of graphic card I know are the GTX 7** and the r9 2**. :oops: But this is going to change since the GTX 8** are soon going to come out. As I have never experienced to release of a new generation of GPU, I have no idea what to...

Help me get my first build perfect.

I prefer modular PSUs and I think it might be worth getting the gold efficiency since I will keep the PSU for at least 5 years. As for the motherboard, I think the gigabyte only haves two phases and I'm scared it won't be enough to get a good speed on the CPU. I chose the MVIIG based on with I...

Help me get my first build perfect.

Thanks a lot for your help. It is really appreciated. Swiftech has a three years warranty that evens covers expansions, in the worst case if the pump fails, I can still change it. I don't have to throw the whole thing to the garbage. But nice point on the leak. This is pretty scary. Did it...

Thanks for all your answers. Mfenn: did it. Face2face: I want to get the fastest stable clock speed while being under the danger zone for my CPU and I might OC a bit my GPU when it will start getting old, but nothing too fast since I want to keep my rig quiet. Do you think 550w will be...
