GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-D3H LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-D3H LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: does not bend at all when you hold it everything was easy to install works pretty fast has enough ports SATA 6Gb/s

Cons: wish it had one or two more case fan ports, but you can always get the adapters that turn one into three

Pros: looks cool easy to install not too expensive works just as fast as you'd expect

Cons: a little on the taller side, so make sure this will fit your set-up before you purchase this fit mine easily just check before you buy

Intel Core i5-4670K - Core i5 4th Gen Haswell Quad-Core 3.4 GHz LGA 1150 84W Intel HD Graphics Desktop Processor - BX80646I54670K

Pros: easy to install comes with a (sub par) cooler, which is nice to have if you're waiting on a cooler that is better than sitting next to the CPU and blowing on it really fast doesn't get too hot (even with stock cooler)

Cons: makes me really nervous to hold a tiny chip that is worth more than a days salary

Pros: easy to install looks cool comes with stickers (lol) runs great, have amazing graphics now quiet as far as i can tell

Cons: none

Overall Review: when i first installed it i went to test a non-graphic-intensive game and was getting 5 FPS in LEAGUE OF LEGENDS on the best settings.... realized i didn't install the drivers after 10 minutes of profound sadness now runs over 60 FPS

Corsair Vengeance Series C70 Military Green Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: BIG has 6 drive bays 3.5" and 2.5" installation is really easy comes with screws has motherboard mount in it already good cable management really easy to carry and to take off sides nice metal looks darn good more fan spots if you need it comes with motherboard standoffs built in

Cons: power buttons kind of cheap feeling (rubbery) holes on top (not problem for me because it's on top of my desk, and is better for cooling i guess) front panel comes off much easier than you would think, it came off for me when i was turning the case, don't know if this is normal though (not really a real problem though cause it can be secured better)

Overall Review: love it

Pros: really cheap is SATA easier to install than my hard drives works if you push the cd tray it will close automatically doesn't look terribly cheap once it's installed

Cons: on the louder side

Overall Review: remember this doesn't have the SATA cables included, but most likely if you are building a computer your motherboard/PSU will have all the cables you need
