    Looks
    The board and cpu are suspiciously cheap compared to the x99
    New ram is also
    Darn case is pretty reasonably sized for a tower :/

    My x99 sabertooth was 325.us I believe so yes that is a lot cheaper
    cpu price wise compared to my 5930k is wildly cheap

    Looks like I could of put to together 2 skylake builds for the price of one x99 shit almost 3

    X99 is too much even though it's a butt kicker

    Be a sport and make sure you load win-7 on it too and not just win-10 so we can see what the heck is the deal

    For the record you were kicking my butt on your old rig

    I'm sure there will be another 980 in there too.

    the X99 boards are going to cost more than the Z170s, even though they are a generation or two behind, since they have larger CPU sockets to accommodate more powerful CPUs, more PCI lanes (28 or 40 instead of only 24), more RAM channels and slots, more SATA ports, etc.
