Thanks! That's exactly what I needed. Didn't know that it comes with a built in soundcard. Will I be able to do wireless only? I know the connection won't be as good, but I don't play that many games online. Also didn't know it came with a fan!
Edit: Also could I get some tips on motherboards? I have no idea what I should be looking out for.
All consumer motherboards come with audio and wired networking built in (just look at side pictures).
USB Wifi is fine. You can use either and disable or enable whatever (Wired / WiFi) one you want.
Haha young people.

The PC used to double as a monitor stand for your 50 lb CRT to stand on. Those sideways cases were reinforced to be pretty durable!

This is my current pc with the exception of now using 8.1 and the GTX670 which I just swapped out for a 780 Ti. What is the next big upgrade path? CPU is the big thing but should I wait until the next revision? And what is the new type of ram about? Of course at that point my motherboard needs to be replaced too. Appreciate the knowledge!

As mentioned on the previous page Microcenter will be selling the 4970k for $279.99 vs the $370 MSRP. I have a MIcrocenter up the street from me. I am willing to pre-order and ship to whomever is looking to upgrade, but doesn't have a MC nearby.
So far I have reserved one for myself and one other person. Payment is not due until you pick up instore, so you can wait until the day of release (7/4) to transfer funds via Paypal.

So windows 8.1 is pretty good from what I hear? Is it better than the regular windows 8?
EDIT: also, Smokey, were do you live? How long would the shipping take?

My work PC keeps having an issue today where the screen goes black for a second then comes back on. I then get a notification that the display driver stopped working and has recovered (integrated graphics). It's done it at least 8 to 10 times in the past 20 mins. Any idea what I can do to fix this?

I'd appreciate you pre-ordering one for me, don't want to spend the 30 dollars in gas to drive to the store just to put a reservation down, and then do the same when it comes out. Didn't realize there was a discount, so no point in waiting a really long time for what comes after.

Thank you, will do then. Makes the choice a lot easier.
Thats a bit far to drive.... You no get to see GTR
Alright, I'll mark ya down
You have a GTR?
Wow what are you doing associating yourself with us mere peasants
It works. Nothing fancy, just plain works.
I'm still using my 2500K/290 system primarily though because I'm too lazy to move the case, and swap out the SB-Z into the other one.
THAT'S MY DREAM CAR YOU KNOW.

Since they just released the pc drivers to make the Xbox one controllers work for the PC, does this come with a usb to connect to my computer?

I was eyeing a Corsair Vengeance C70 case, and according to the other thread Hazaro linked that should be good for a H110.
doesn't come with usb cord
it uses micro usb though

Welp, bought a 2nd 780 Ti Classy and some backplates because why not.
I'll bring my Impreza
Are you digging the military theme in particular? The Phanteks Enthoo Pro just came out and is better than any case under $200.I was eyeing a Corsair Vengeance C70 case, and according to the other thread Hazaro linked that should be good for a H110.
Also, you don't really need to bother with the 140mm version. It's overly big for zero benefit on standard Haswell, and has an unproven benefit on Devil's Canyon.
I'd be interested in this as well.

Nothing really. I would advise getting a good cooler and overclocking your CPU. No need for a new one as you will see a marginal 5-10% increase in CPU power which corraltes to even less gains in games. IF you are going to go i7 wait a few months but if I were you I would hold on for Broadwell or Skylake as there are no substantial gains to be had at this time that are worth the price of a new motherboard and cpu. IF anything maybe up the ante and go for 16gb of ram but thats about it.
It seems you can preorder online, you just have to select the location you're preordering at, then pick it up on release. At least that's what it lets me do with the two Chicago microcenters.
It applies here too.

Yes, that military theme looks awesome. :O
The Phanteks case is 2x the cost of the Corsair C70 though. x_x
If I had a case that can fit the H110, I figured I might as well get it since it's only $15 more then the H100i, and as you surmised I am considering them for Devil's Canyon, I know most of us are dreaming 5GHz here, I didn't want to skim on cooling if that's at all possible and the lottery is kind to me.
The Enthoo Pro is less expensive. You're probably looking at the Enthoo Primo.Yes, that military theme looks awesome. :O

I'd like to get in on this. should we PM you, should you post this in the B/S/T thread in order to go through official channels so both parties can be vetted and receive feedback accordingly?
Also take a look at some benchmarks/power usage comparing 4770k to 4790k at stock clocks: http://www.digitalstormonline.com/u...-canyon-review-and-benchmarks-stock-idnum294/
this time it turned out to be about 8c cooler and drew less power... hope this turns out to be true!

I really want to see this kind of analysis on the i5. People seem to be ignoring its existence.
Probably because the charts should be pretty linear. Disabling HT isn't going to be that significant.
Where are you seeing them at this price? I have been seeing them around $390 and up.
ed- Whoops just saw used now, nevermind.
I'm fine with this.
I'll post it over there with names of people I'm doing this for so everything is transparent.
Disable some of the boot stuff is BIOS. I can't remember off the top of my head. My P8P67 double booted, but I never got oc failed.
You mean the one in the build sheets and having the mATX and ITX version videos being posted in the past few pages? Yeah
Just waiting on full release to make sure people can actually buy them, seems like Enthoo Pro is in stock now.
No point in updating mid Computex.
Also always PM build sheet updates to me. No gauntee I'll see it in thread.
Sorry about that, I don't follow this thread that closely and didn't see it in the OP at first glance. Looks like an amazing case though. I'll have to check the posts I missed on it.
Yep. ASUS, GB, and MSI all have warranty based on serial #, so it doesn't matter if you're the original owner or not. Basically the only risk in buying one is a very very very slight chance of it being defective, in which case all is made right by the AIB.

Hello, I am Smokey da Don, and I'd like to pre-order 23 4790Ks please. I have a big appetite for chips.
No reviews yet. Most of that will likely be dependent on frequency, which promises to be higher than it is currently, but will ultimately depend on silicon lottery.
I'd be down for that if it will be anything like SC2 GAF Toronto meetups. (Make sure CC is on for the first one)
I thought I told you? Don't think I'll be driving it to Vancouver anytime soon =(
hmmmmmmm road trip to Austin GP?
Mitsu for life
...so end of next year *tear*
Ugh I've been to TO-GAF meetups, mostly boring.
I'm mining bitcoin the manly way!

"Hi, I'm Smokey 'Charlie' Bucket, I'd like to buy "x" number of 4790K's!"
why?
"I'm uhh... checking them all for a 'Golden chip' to do 5.5GHz on air! :evil laugh:"
Well I have 5 people including myself. I just called to verify that this was ok and he said he didn't see anything in a memo from his supervisor about it nor in the online ad.
But he did say if they think people are resellers they may put a limit, but for now that's not the case. Either way if that happens I'm sure I'll get an email about it.
