No point at all geting a 290X X2 By the time 4K becomes the standard better and cheaper cards will be out. Save your money.

You will notice it ingame. When I swapped I found it soo much better playing games, especially FPS titles.

now I have to regretfully inform you that, spending so much on a PC has meant that I have to use a sony bravia 40 inch tv as a monitor for the time being. The problem being it has a refresh rate of 50hz LOL. So I basically spent £1k on a pc and could get the same result from a £400 pc, but I will save up to get a 144hz monitor, hopefully at the end of the year. How will I notice 50 fps cap? (do I even english xD)

That is another debate entirely :P My view though is that eyes can only take in the equivalent of 28 FPS so as long as its more then that I dont care lol.

yeah, well whenever I get £300 to spend on a monitor i guess I will be able to play at 144hz then, but I will be waiting a few months. Can't wait to build my pc, it should all come by thursday and then I will either build on wednesday or thursday depending on when it comes

Oh no...It has begun.

Yep, still sitting here scratching my head. So, I have done cpu, cpu cooler, added to case, then connected all of the case things except for 2 things that I cannot workout where they go. Still, will take a picture tomorrow. I know one of them is a direct audio power thing but idk where the F*ck it goes lol. Will just add the gpu tonight I think, or maybe psu or both, idk we will see

right time for bed, just done some cable management. I have to do - tomorrow will add the hard drive, connect everything then check everything, and do some research making sure everything is right, and then hopefully thursday the ram will come and I can fire her up and get the os installed, and then do some gaming :D

right to update: done the hard drive, connected pretty much everything into the psu, so now all the mini circuit boards on the case have power. I think everything else has power as well, there should be a number of connectors that don't have anything in it? i think e.g sys fan 1 and 2 etc won't be in use as the case has a mini circuit board which is plugged in, although I have one connector which I have no idea about. will edit it in,

You plug in the molex hanging from your fan controller to your PSU's molex power. And when you have that done just plug in your fan fan connectors to the 3 pin connectors hanging from your fan controller.

 

(Edit: It should tell you in your case manual how to connect it. Sorry for long replays on phone.)

the molex is all done, that powers the LED's and the fans. However there is one connector that I have no idea of what it does, just uploading photos to photobucket, I can't find where it goes anywhere it seems

 

That is just a fan splitter to make the case a bit neater. What plug are you confused about?

i will upload some photos to show you.

 

will add another one when done

right guys, it is actually just another way to power the fans, so it is not needed. Was a bit worried then. Ok, so now i just need to check everything, and then I have to wait another day -_- to get the ram lol to actually use it. Should I power it on to see if it works or not?
