Hi guys, this is my first post here and I really like what I saw on this forum so far, keep up the good work!

Just wanted to know your opinion on my build, especially because I'm not sure if all the parts work fine together. I'm open for any tipps to improve my build.
Can I boot from the Samsung SM951 AHCI and this mainboard? If yes is it worth it?

The Parts so far

I already have a Gigabyte Windforce GTX-780 Ti OC and a few HDD's, so don't worry about that...

I appreciate every answer, thanks for your time!

Yes you...

Yes you can boot with your MB. Best advice for install is follow instruction at Ram City they have for the SM941. Which is how I installed my SM951.

"Is it worth it?"
Is time important you? Does a hard drive scan that took 20-25 mins to now 2 mins and 45 seconds important to you? Is restoring of your hard drive image using a Samsung 840 Pro that took 5-6 mins to now 90 seconds with the SM951 important to you?

Is it worth it you ask? You have too look at the cost of buying, what reviews you can read, and really only you can make the decision. "Most" people will tell you no, not worth the cost. If you have the budget for it, go for it. But in the end, it is your $$.

Me personally, I am loving it :)
