sinetheo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Nice!! A little envious since I just built my own last fall ... with a last generation haswell i7 4770k mixed with older 1600 me ram and an earlier 770 card. Man should have waited. I have a similar build with 1 generation besides yours but with dual Samsung pro ssds for my virtual machines in raid. Your board has raid 0 as well if you turn it on in bios. My only suggestion is to downgrade to Windows 7 ... ducks The Evil Overlord 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsupersonic Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Nice build. Is that a glass table? I wouldn't put the case on top of the table...You're just asking for trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAZMINATOR Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Nice build. Is that a glass table? I wouldn't put the case on top of the table...You're just asking for trouble. It's thick enough... it can hold the tower fine... unless you drop the tower onto the glass, then you have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benthebear Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Really nice build. I'm starting to become a fan of the Air 240. What do you think of it? I may migrate my system from the Graphite 600T to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circaflex Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Why is the graphic card crap? its not, i think he was joking but if he is serious hell probably link you to one article talking about some memory leak that has no actual affect. Ignore the trolls. Nice build, i just upgraded as well picked up the rampage v extreme and some new Samsung 850's to replace my m4's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+kpo6969 Subscriber¹ Posted February 15, 2015 Subscriber¹ Share Posted February 15, 2015 On the ssd there are far better choices or did it have to be Corsair? For the graphic card Evga dropped the ball with GTX 970. The only one to even consider (disregarding price of course) would be the FTW + Nice build though and good luck with it.

The Evil Overlord Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Hell, if you want to replace your kb and mouse and don't mind membrane, I'll throw in a vote for the Logitech G19s and G700s (my kb and mouse) The keyboard's 'dated' by modern standards, but I like the techy/nerdy factor of having a 4th screen, so to speak Vvo 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACTIONpack Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 That's a nice setup. Good parts. Just one thing, that SSD will fill up in no time, if you install games on it, unless you don't plan to have more than a few installed at any given time; or perhaps you install your games on the HDD? I got a 3TB western digital hard drive. For storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are a graphics designer you do not need a lot of SSD storage. Since I have the same parts but last generation for my build I did put in tons of SSD storage but that is because I run an occasional game and do VMware workstation for domain testing for my Cisco and Microsoft certs and some LAMP Linux appliances for php coding. So I used that for my excuse ... err reason for 2 raid sets. But surprisingly I gained no boot performance for going to raid from a single ssd. It was IOS based. So you do not need any more SSD storage at all unless you game on the side and are sick and tired of waiting 3 to 4 minutes for big levels to load. Then it would make sense to add a 2nd 128 ssd and raid 0 it with your other for 256 volume. But that is really a geek gamer dream there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
