Hi all,
my old Z68 mobo has given up after 4 years of service with my 2500k. As it's quite hard to find a new mobo for the chipset I thought I'd just get some new shiny gadgets!
Any glaring issues with this build?
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,755.02
(includes shipping: £23.10)
Am planning to re-use my old Corsair H100 cooler and my Sonar Essence STX soundcard.
I was wondering if my 4 year old Corsair Professional gold 750W PSU is still useable but added a new PSU just in case.
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated
