Have fun with it, it's gonna fly.

You might be confused, TigerDirect is Compusa, Newegg is seperate. (as far as I know)

I paid only 9.99 for shipping, saved 104 in local sales tax, got a 30 dollar gift card included for free and no mail-in rebates.

Ok I had the 2 confused but almost identical pricing/shipping. The i7-3770K is $289 and the Asus z77 sabretooth for $194 when purchased with i5/i7 chip. You still got a good deal compared to a bunch of sites.

Any ideas on a good processor fan add-on? Super cooling with very low noise and low energy consumption?

dallasnovelty · 07-28-2012, 07:47 PM

I like coolermaster there are some nice water cooled systems. I'm OCed a lot and use a coolermaster hyper 612 and it keeps my CPU at 29? idle and under full load it hit 51?. I don't hear my CPU fan because I have 7 120mms humming away.

Parts are in! Getting ready to assemble now!
