Hello OCN, this is my first build log even though I've technically had 3 different computers by now so don't be too harsh! thumb.gif

Parts List
Quote:
1x i5 3570k
1x ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe
1x EVGA GTX 680
1x Corsair AX850 with Blue Sleeving
1x Bitfenix Prodigy
1x OCZ Vertex 4 128GB SSD
1x Hitachi Deskstar 7K3000 2TB Hard Drive

Reason For This Build
Quote:
Too many times have I had to take down my 80 lb computer to change one small thing or go to a lan party and break my back getting it there. Well hopefully this is my last build as it has been a very expensive upgrade path since I first started.

Update time!

Angled side shots.

Close-up on the VRM daughterboard.

Size comparison to an ASUS P8P67 Pro.

Man this thing is small!

Well I was being hopeful for UPS to come through and deliver it before Saturday but I guess that won't happen so my order won't be here until Monday. frown.gif
