Thanks for the quick tutorial. Makes sense. Yes I greatly misinterpreted it

CPU was back ordered. Should be here mid-late next week. Everything else is here. I'll start putting things together over the weekend.

Processor finally on the way. It will be here Thursday. Build is almost complete, I just need to pop the processor in, attach the water block (the radiator is already mounted, which turned out to be a pain. The heatsinks on my motherboard are massive and didn't have the clearance for one of the fans so I improvised and mounted one on top, one on the bottom.) then I'll put the video card in (that card is HUGE). Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have everything done, including the overclock, software, etc. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm hoping for at least 4.6ghz out of the CPU.

Apparently shipping is slow this time of year. Looks like early next week for the CPU and SSD. So the 2 day shipping that I paid for is going to take a full week.

Here is what it looks like so far. Everything is in except for the SSD and CPU, then I just need to attach the cooler and hook the connectors up for the water pump/radiator fans.

Awesome. Yes, we've found the carriers are behind this time of year as well! Hope your parts arrive soon!

Everything is here, system is built. On to the process of installing everything.

Everything is up and running.

CPU running at 4.6Ghz Stable. Temperatures hit a max of 77 degrees under stress testing. I couldn't keep them below 85 degrees at 4.7Ghz. I'm happy with that though.

Nice that will be a solid rig
