Other than that it's a I7-4790, Asus Sabertooth Z97, 32Gb of Corsair Vengence ram, 120Gb Samsung 840 Evo, WD black 1TB, Corsair RM750 PSU, Corsair H90 liquid cooler all in a NZXT source 530.
That's gonna be solid. I'm usually a stalwart Nvidia supporter, but I think I'm gonna do AMD's on my next PC. I usually like to buy a nice PC from Dell and then upgrade the graphics card after about a year. So it's kinda like all those ZL1's at C5Fest with aftermarket FI.

I guess that is one way of putting it. Right now at idel, my CPU is running at 77F and I will say that ambinet temp is currently around 73F in my room. Pretty impressed with the H90 so far, waiting to see how it will act under load.

What's your reasoning for going with AMD?

Rolled in with the top down this morning and was really tempted to just drive past the workplace and go for a long drive down some twisties because it is absolutely gorgeous outside this morning. Instead I'm trying to get motivated to polish up some drawings and process change request paperwork. Blah.

Just want to see how the other half live I guess lol. We've had a good experience with them at work though. I might just get a new laptop with them instead and leave the desktop as an nvidia machine.
