Well,

I ordered my new i5 2500K and the ASUS Maximus IV Z68 Gene motherboard. Can't wait. Taxes in. It was $470. Not too bad. WOOOHOOOO

Should be a nice upgrade:)

2700k releases today. I'm tempted, because they are rumoured to be cherry picked 2600k's.

Well, I got it. And It was the first time I installed a motherboard. It took me a bit of time hooking everything up. But first boot and everything works fine. WOOOOHOOOO. Love it. Able to play BF3 in Ultra. What a huge difference.

Congrats dude.


Just hook everything up and get a drill. Go apeshit, file down your holes and then sand, prime and spray.
