Time for new computer. Just ordered what's in the image. What do you think?

My current computer, which I'm also keeping:

Fractal Design Arc Midi
Asus P5Q Deluxe P45
Intel Core2Quad Q9550
Asus GTX 580
4GB DDR2 RAM
Intel 520 SSD 180 GB
NZXT 750W PSU
>>
Corsair gave me bad ram but that might just be a rare thing
>>
Also put the OS on the ssd
>>
Price for anyone interested:

16644 SEK

(2012.87 USD)
(1781.77 EUR)

Bear in mind Sweden is really expensive compared to the US.

Just built something very similar, still waiting for the GTX 1080 to arrive though.

I went for the Define S. It's the exact same case without the drive bays so you get better cooling and the NH-D15 instead.

Blisteringly fast. Just be aware that Corsair RAM and the MOBO you chose don't really play well together. You might want to go for Kingston.

change the board and processor, go with the x99

Yeah I bet. All your cuck-supporting taxes must make the cost of living quite high, right Muhammed?
>>
>>55010061
Any particular reason why you are recommending this?
>>
>>55010061
I considered X99 and 6800K until they reviewed very poorly
"If you buy this you are throwing away your money", "Fantasy pricing", etc.

Looks solid. Not sure about the PSU though, I would have just went with an EVGA G2 also maybe get a noctua dh15
>>

Nooo get the nh15
>>
>>55010956
The PSU is nearly identical to EVGA G2, but the fan needs to work less, so it should make less noise.

Scared of Noctua DH15, retailers don't ship prebuilts with it here due to the risk of it breaking off during delivery, since it's so big and heavy.

I'm building this computer myself but I would fear going to LANs with it.

OP do you really need a $2,000 computer? What are you going to use the i7 for that an i5 couldn't?

6600k would bring it down to about 1889 USD

6700k won't bottleneck my next graphics card purchase in a few years and has slightly higher performance for games
>>
Just for fun I counted what this would cost on newegg: 1591 USD

It ain't fair
