Ok folks, after a long hiatus from desktop computing (since 2009!?), I am getting back into it. My last desktop was a Q6600 based setup...yeah, it has been THAT long!
Well, the parts arrived yesterday and I am excited to start putting it together.
Honestly, I did not do as much research as I should have when I picked these parts. Price was the primary consideration. Anyway, I plan on getting the most out of this setup, especially the relatively cheap 750Ti by performing whatever (Volt) mods necessary etc...At this point, I don't really care about overclocking the DRAM.
So, I guess my first stop is to read hokie's Haswell guide.
