Having only two front bays will help keep the budget in line. The more you have, the more you want to fill them.

All four of mine are filled but I could probably squeeze-in another accessory if I moved my SSD and pulled one of the HDDs. I'm torn between a second DVD or a temp monitor panel.

(Ignore the dust.)

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

Yea I'm a bit torn with the front usb ports on the top :/
Not sure why they put them there it seems unusual to me which is why I didn't get the case with the front door model for noise reduction.
All I really need is a dvd burner doo-da my stereo is way better than anything I could put on a computer

Possibly would add something for swapping out ssd's in front it would be easier to do rather than inside the case,
I have a dual ssd hot swap evo already ? although not the prettiest item ever created it's very functional.

Just get the Z87, at that price I grabbed one

Gav (Boozad) has one and he loves it.

What cpu do you intend to put in it ?

The 4690K or the 4790K ?

That is the last item for the first round the mother board,
Reviews are pretty bad for either one I would probably do the z97
It has or at least newegg shows it has the 5 year warrantee

The z87 doesn't show that ?

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

What reviews ? You can`t believe them, my Z77 works perfectly

ASUS Sabertooth Z87 motherboard review - Introduction

And the Z87 is just an improvement on it, and it has 8 internal 6Gbps sata port and 2 esata ports, my Z77 only has 4 6Gbps sata ports and 4 3Gbps ports and 2 esata ports.

Not that that`s ever been an issue.

The warranty is 5 years. Just scroll down to the near bottom of the link I posted.

You will have to update the bios to run the Devil`s Canyon cpu, why that is, I have no idea.

That is an excellent choice on a PSU

I'm off of Newegg
I'll never buy anything from them again with their shit drivers discretion drop and run policy with ups
I couldn't get any assurances so I canceled the z87

They seem to think it's a ups issue but in reality it's an agreement between Newegg and ups
ups points at Newegg and Newegg points at ups

I point to other places to buy stuff.

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

I hear that, I worked at UPS for 5 years, seen it all, but so far I`ve never had a damaged product come from Newegg via UPS, and I`ve ordered alot.

The Z87 is the same price at Amamzon, but who do they use for delivery, I think Fedex and the USPS are the best.

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

Difference in amazon is I can reason with them

Once it ships (I did it after purchase) I can call them and tell them to inform the delivery company signature only/ drivers license only

I live in a apartment/ condo where neighbors come and go which most I wouldn't trust as far as I could throw them
Not to mention people follow ups drivers and take the stuff they know full well ups will drop it and run.

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

That sucks, fortunately I know when my UPS driver will be pulling up, so I keep an eye out, and my neighborhood is very good, things like that don`t happen here

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

ups used to be a good company very reliable and never left something without handing it to someone answering the door,
I miss those times

Oh well all ordered,
Total about ~~450.us~~ 418.us
And yes the z87

578.01

case
psu

See what to get next month or when available funds appear

Thanks by the way Brian

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

What cpu are you gonna get ?

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

i7 the one you posted

That will be in the second round with I suppose one other item possibly the cooling system ?

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

Ya the Devil`s Canyon is better then the 1st gen Haswell, good choice.

If the top of the case can take 2 140mm fans, take a look at this one.

But you can always use 120s and the H80i

This is also a good cooler.

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

Yep I was looking at Gav's morphed thermal paste question

The 450D,
Amazon.com: Corsair Obsidian Series Black 450D High Airflow Mid-Tower Computer Case CC-9011049-WW: Computers & Accessories
can fit the top double radiator and where it would be in the house is not an issue and probably the preferred location on the top,
But there's a little time to decide plus the upgrade fans for it and I guess elsewhere too for a little more quietness ?

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

Here it is on amazon, 99. for an H100i

AddRAM · May 1, 2015

I went with the Corsair H110i GT, I ordered directly from Corsair, it`ll be here Wednesday.
Much better construction on all the parts and the tubes look much nicer.

Dude · May 1, 2015

I'm looking forward to the pics. Nice upgrade Mike

If you get very many packages, you may want to consider getting a private mailbox service (I've been using them for years; I only get junk mail at home). Since they are a commercial address, carriers can't do a drop and run. Once delivered, packages and mail are kept in a secure place until it is convenient for you to get them. Even regular mail is safer since the mail boxes are individually locked. The banks of mail boxes most apartments have need to have only one lock picked, drilled, or punched to access all the mail boxes.

ThrashZone · May 1, 2015

Oh that's sweet Brian nobody has that one

Prefilled :/ sounds right up my alley !
I'll probably pick up the i7 Monday at MicroCenter I have some dough burning a hole in my pocket and that's a deal not worthy of passing up

I'll have work on my photography skills Doug might give up on the photo doo-da app and use my camera

LF,
It's tough to constitute that but it all depends on this next delivery
If this orders preferences are ignored I will indeed
It is a pain to deal with two different companies to get a single refund for something so basic
