Excellent advice as always!

Looking for some quick help :) My i7 4790K just arrived. I do plan to OC, and my mobo is an Asrock Z97 Pro4. The case is a Cooler Master Masterbox Lite 5 RGB: http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/masterbox-lite-5-rgb/ I'm using 2 fans in the front (aigo120 rgb's), I can add a 3rd if...

Thank you both. I know what to do :) Awesome responses as always!!!

Awesome! TY John.

Finally got my build up and running, sort of. Everything is working nicely, except the RGB fans that came with my case, the MasterBox Lite 5 RGB: http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/masterbox-lite-5-rgb/ The Motherboard I am using is an Asrock z97 pro4 with my 4th gen. i7. It does...

Hmm, you might or probably correct. I and the person who supplied board made the assumption that the 4770S was very similar to my processor??

Here are the specs: (New Build) + I have read all guides on here and on YouTube: i7 4875T (pulled from Alienware Alpha) was working fine. IH81M Lenovo Motherboard (1150 Socket) (ThinkCentre M73 board) Intel Stock Cooler New thermal paste, correct amount DDR3 Patriot Ram, 2 sticks, 8 per stick...

Wonderful!

Finishing up a build for my son. The mobo is an Lenovo Ih81m. Yes, older, but my 4th gen i7,4875T works with it. I’m finishing everything up (had to make a 24 pin to 14 pin psu cable), but everything else seems fine. However, I cannot figure out what to do with the HD audio cable from the...

Ty for the quick response.
