PP Mguire Build Guru Messages 32,592 Location Fort Worth, Texas Oct 23, 2012 #11 The 3570k? It would be worth it. I don't trust Geil at all, but should be worth it and work.
OP OP B bpm55 In Runtime Messages 248 Location SC Oct 23, 2012 #12 If the ram is bad I am not really out any money. Definitley the 3570k, if I am going to go Intel. I want to go with the best for the money. I can always buy another set of ram. So based on the I5 and the mobo, what would you do for the other parts? Still keeping it below $650 - 700.

PP Mguire Build Guru Messages 32,592 Location Fort Worth, Texas Oct 23, 2012 #13 Same as in my other post. Keeping it under that amount I would bump the PSU up to the 650w TX instead and maybe up to the 660 instead of 650ti.

OP OP B bpm55 In Runtime Messages 248 Location SC Oct 23, 2012 #14 okay sounds good I ordered the mobo, so I guess the process is started now.

OP OP B bpm55 In Runtime Messages 248 Location SC Oct 23, 2012 #16 One more question and I think I will have all the parts covered. I was wondering if you could suggest a case with good cable management, either behind the mobo, or something else? Thanks So this is the updated list: CPU: I5-3570K ($230) PSU: CORSAIR 650TX ($100 - $25 rebate) MOBO: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA {Already Purchased $114) RAM:GeIL EVO Veloce Series 8GB(Free with MOBO} GPU: EVGA SSC GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB (Cost $170 + Free Assasin's Creed 3 - $10rebate) Total without Case $580!

PP Mguire Build Guru Messages 32,592 Location Fort Worth, Texas Oct 23, 2012 #17 Corsair Carbide 300 is pretty nice and cheap.
OP OP B bpm55 In Runtime Messages 248 Location SC Oct 23, 2012 #18 I was leaning towards that case already, still looking but I do like it.
