Worth it? I'm just getting a lga1150 board and slow/cheap cpu now,

in a couple years I'll upgrade to a faster K model once they come down from stratosphere.

I am requesting other options and reasons why they are better and why (and why they may be worth the extra $$$)

ALSO I'm looking a a 7790 vid card, maybe in time a 4670k 8gb ddr3 2133, 3 7200rpm drives, 1 m500 ssd 480GB, 2 hardly used combo opticals....

most psu estimators say that runs about 375-400 watts, so I'm looking at a 450watt antec... so long as intel continues the march toward low power and the gpu makers dont get crazy, won't that suit my needs for a long time?

John thanks for the links. I like just the extra room of a full atx.... also asrock....rocks lol

I heard some less that good things about MSI, thoughts on them?

I already ordered a couple things but I'm seriously looking at this: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=8678576&sku=B69-1762

sell the ram and get more for a few dollars but the chip is worth 120, then the ram say 35... and 50 each for the case and mobo (and i assume psu included too) I wish i could but i dont think i can beat that...
