I already purchased or have in stock all the parts. I found a great deal on the new Haswell, so I leaped on it before thinking or consulting other people...
I have read so many conflicting reports about the power consumption differences between the 3770k and the 4770k. Several reputable websites give conflicting reports...[Anandtech, Tom's Hardware, Tweaktown, CPU world, etc.].
Who do I believe?
I hope I made the right choice in choosing the Haswell over the Ivy bridge!!
Purpose of the build: dedicated security rig [will run Blue Iris and 10-12 HD IP cams], running 24/7. It needs to be totally stable and reliable.
Here we go:
Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced - Mini-ITX Computer Case
Intel i7-4770k
ASRock Z87E-ITX
Corsair Vengeance RAM 1600 8GB
2-Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm x 25mm Fan - 1850 RPM case fans
Modified ARCTIC COOLING A7P-75000023 92mm CPU Cooler [shaved/milled 5/8" off the top]
PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk III Series 400W Modular Power Supply
Intel 160GB SSD
Western Digital Red 3TB HDD
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
So what do ya think? Is it ok?
