    Question New Build. Don't care for fancy RBG

    @Why_Me I assume this would still be a solid build even though we are quite a bit further out than I had anticipated for ordering all the parts. I will order them all in the next couple of days now, just wanted to confirm your thoughts :)

    Quick Question about Windows 8 upgrading

    I have an old computer with Windows 7 64-Bit on it. I just finished building a new computer (with the help of some of you guys on this forum). I want Windows 8 on that one. Could I simply upgrade the old computer's Windows 7 and download an ISO and clean install Windows 8 on my new computer?
