Sorry for the confusion, its a simple typo

Hi guys, recently I've really felt the need for a smaller pc and have been looking up various mobos for my next micro-itx build. I've come up with two for LGA 1150 and one for LGA 2011. I thought i'd go with an i7 4770k for 1150 or i7 4930k for 2011. I intend to take it to LAN parties and only...

Hi guys, I am currently building my first 4k gaming rig and have been scoping out the 4K monitor landscape. My search for a 3840x2160 Resolution, 1ms, 60Hz monitor still continues, but I have already found some contenders and I need some help weighing them up...

Hi guys, I know a lot of people post one of these, but this is my first build and I need some reassurance. I know this is massive overkill but I want to play games at 4K with all the settings maxed out. Also, will the 4-way SLI create significant problems while gaming, because I hear that a lot...

I'm new to pc building so I need some pointers as to what components to get for a custom cooling loop. This is my first build so I want everything to be near perfect. My budget is in the higher end, so I intend to use only the highest quality components. I will be overclocking. I want to fully...

I have another question about the terms around ram. Searching the web for the ram I would like I keep seeing 'PC3' with a number like 12000 after it. What does this mean? Is a higher number better. For example G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)...

Ok enough quoting the quotes when you reply please, I not berating anyone its just getting hard to look through it all.(I know I just did it, and I just realized its getting ridiculously long)
