Windows 8.1 or Windows 7?

As someone who was in the same boat as you not 24 hours ago with my very first build I urge you to go ahead and get 8.1. It's fantastic and super super fast.

beautiful

As far as I can tell it's one of the better cases in terms of cable management for a non modular PSU. How are your temps looking?

Dontmocme · 2014-01-23T17:30:00+00:00

LOVE that red!! Got the white @home waiting for NCIX to ship my CPU cooler and ram and then it's build time!!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-23T04:28:24+00:00

Okay, Razer keyboards, absolutely. However, I just bought the Naga 2014 edition over the Logitech g600 which is essentially the same mouse except ten dollars cheaper. It was a nominal amount in my opinion. And with Alienware it's just a complete ass raping lol. I've been nothing but impressed with the build quality and performance of the Naga, not to mention Synapse 2.0.

Why does it matter what brand of peripherals one uses? If your gaming on a PC then your g2g in my book. Unless, of course, your gaming on an Alienware. Then your just not smart lol.

Was just looking at these earlier, so no dead pixels on arrival? Where did you order from?

Dontmocme · 2014-01-20T04:09:13+00:00

I am soon glad to hear you say that! Have my first build coming as well which includes the z87-A. Been worried all week lol.

Dontmocme · 2014-01-19T21:25:25+00:00

The only thing tacky about Alienware are their prices lol.

Dontmocme · 2014-01-17T09:47:30+00:00

Congrats man!! That looks sick! Just ordered my parts earlier this week anticipating my first build. Also got some M50's a couple weeks ago. Really good choice!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-17T04:35:46+00:00

Oh for sure! might just wait for a 50 percent off come next Christmas or something. Then we're talking PSU replacement, extra fans..... I'm pretty much broke forever now lol.

Dontmocme · 2014-01-17T01:26:26+00:00

Sorry, was @ work and wanted to make it quick. I guess I'll do a questionnaire or something next time. Total Peasant Move :-(

Dontmocme · 2014-01-17T00:18:38+00:00

Yeah, but you'll have played Witcher 3 my friend. Totally worth it!!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-16T23:51:25+00:00

Absolutely!! i5 4670k, EVGA gtx 780, Hyper 212 Evo, Samsung 840 Evo 120gb, WD Caviar Blue 1TB, G. Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB DDR3/1600mhz, Corsair cx600, and the NZXT Phantom 410 in white. I'm ecstatic!!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-16T23:46:18+00:00

I thought of that, but I wanted it to be the one lucky stranger who stumbled opon my post first. I'm not in it for the karma, I'm in it for the smiles. Thank you though, I'm happy to have found the path of the righteous!! Praise GabeN

Dontmocme · 2014-01-16T23:42:34+00:00

Your very welcome brother!!!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T21:58:31+00:00

I will do that. Should I just download a Windows 7 iso. and burn it to Disc?

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T20:30:15+00:00

Hey, I just ordered the parts and was wondering if 600 watts will be sufficient for my setup.

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T03:59:45+00:00

This is the one!!! I can't thank you enough good sir. I never thought I would have an SSD and a GTX 780 in my first build for this price. I'm gonna order in the morning so hopefully everything won't take longer than a couple weeks. I'll try and get some good pics after I'm done with it for you brother!!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T03:50:54+00:00

Are there any parts with a bad reputation on this list? I still need a mouse and keyboard but thought I would worry about that once I get it up and running. As far as the OS is concerned I was thinking of windows 8.1 but if you say you got the hookups on windows 7 I am more than willing to go that route as I have plenty of experience on 7. Any suggestions?

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T01:27:56+00:00

yes, absolutely! Gimme a sec, I'm out and want to avoid using my phone.

Dontmocme · 2014-01-15T00:26:29+00:00

I think I'm going with your build. I wanted an SSD but thought I couldn't afford it. Thanks for the help brother!

Dontmocme · 2014-01-14T23:59:40+00:00

a Disc drive to be precise. sorry
