    So I just bought a 1TB m.2 nvme and it has a sticker on it saying that the warranty will be void if i remove it. Meaning i cant use any heatsink including the one that comes in the box with the actual drive. My board also has a heatsink. Here is the pic. View: https://imgur.com/a/4jOXX5t...

    [SOLVED] Best CPU for my MSI H270 Tomahawk Arctic?

    I've made up my mind. I will go the more expensive i7 8700k. I will probably have to delay my build for about 4 months, but I think this is better for future upgrades as well if I want to change GPU. Thanks a lot everyone!
