So I should finally be getting the cash to get an IB rig up and running, but I haven't been keeping an eye on hardware updates so looking for a yay/nay from those of you who have.
i5 3570k (aiming for ~4.5ghz)
ASRock Z77 Extreme4
Xigmatek Aegir
G.Skill Ripjaws X 1600/CAS8
WD Caviar Blue
OCZ Vertex 4
MSI TF IV GTX 670
Corsair HX750
+ case/odd/os
In the spring I was leaning toward an MSI GD65 or Asus P8Z77-V, but from some quick and dirty research it looks like the Extreme4 has more or less the same features for much less, unless I missed something?
Not sure what changed between the OCZ 3 series and the 4 but a 128GB Vertex 4 is only $10 more than a 120GB Agility 3 so why not go for it...
