Newegg kept my order since 2007, thought that was pretty cool. For some reason though the video cards (8800gtx sli) wasn't on the list though. Post your fist system builds!
fuck 680i chipset up the ass raw
Pic related is my first build, getting ready to order parts soon.
GPU is missing because I can't decide on a 480 (if Radeon unfucks it) or something a little more expensive.
Comments/Criticism? It is a budget build, shooting for $700-$750 right now and all my accessories are scavenged.

Why the hell u buying Haswell?
>>55449711
Never heard any issues about it until now. What's the better alternative?
>>55449736
Don't mind that anon, I have the same exact CPU and it's great.
>>55449389
this is from 2012, already had the hard drive

I know that my mobo will need a BIOS update before anything to make sure to resolve some issues with Haswell CPUs (thanks for the heads-up PCPP) but otherwise I didn't think there'd be any issues.
What all do you use your PC for? I don't plan to do anything very intensive at the moment.

10% better benchmarks
Newer platform

PCPP says the I5-6500 is incompatible with my RAM, since it exceeds the maximum voltage. Plus I'll have to hunt another mobo down. So unless the 6500 is going to have notable effects on my build's ability to access the internet, shitpost, and run mid-range games, I'll pass for now.

Ok buy slower, dated technology. Come to the internet to ask opinions, get mad when you receive them. Totally makes scene.

Sorry for the late reply. I use if for daily browsing, media, photo editing I need to in photoshop, torrenting sometimes, and gaymen (GPU: GTX 960). It's fast and works great for my needs, I've used it with some Linux distros also, using wangblows atm though.
My first build is my current build. Was given to me a few years back. Finally getting around to upgrading it.

>get mad
The only person upset here is you, I just can't be bothered going for 10% more optimized tech and having to restructure my build when I'm not intending to use this computer for anything even remotely intensive.
That being said, if you have a recommended mobo and RAM solution that doesn't blow the doors off the $275 my setup is going to run, feel free to share

Cool, sounds about what I'd use it for.
I haven't build a pc, still using a prebuilt from 2011. (The only thing I did to upgrade it was add an ssd.) Best $40 I've spent on it.
