    I am leaning toward the i7 3770k with this mobo
    Newegg.com - ASUS P8Z77-V LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard $190; Z77 chipset
    I think it best serves my purpose.
    What do you think?

    Glad you got the problem straightened out! In the near future, if you do go ahead with a build, save some money and get the 3570K rather than the 3770K....put the extra $100 into something else. Also, as far as motherboards go, the big three are Asus, MSI, and Gigabyte....I wouldn't try to save a buck and get anything else.

Who's built or building a Windows 8 machine?
in PC Custom Builds and Overclocking

The reason I post this question here is since most of us are high end system builders, modders, and overclockers, Id like see how many of you have or are building a high end Windows 8 machine. I'm not going to argue the merits of whether the OS is good or bad. I'm sure many have their minds...
