Please welcome me to the club with my first new build in over five years!
Fell in love with Core 1000 (and its cost) doing my research, so that's what I settled on (detailed specs in the signature). A nice little machine to play modern games without completely breaking the bank (the total cost including every single item is just over £1,200).
Despite what many said, I have achieved decent overclock with air only in this tiny case: 3570k @ 4.3 GHz (81-82° C for eight hours of Prime95 blend and 85° C for ten passes of LinX) and GTX 560 Ti 448 @ 886 MHz core (73-74° C playing BF3 / 82-83° C folding). Most importantly, while not silent, it's far from being noisy (had to replace my first pick exhaust fan, which was too noisy at 2200 RPM).
Pretty happy with that
