I'm a first time pc builder, building a pc for gaming and I'm nervous to pick a mobo after reading reviews and seeing so many people getting bent cpu pins.
I was thinking about maybe getting an Asus Z87-a or a MSI Z87-G45.
CPU Intel 15-4670k
Still haven't fully decided on a case but i'm leaning towards Thermaltake Chaser A31 ATX mid tower.
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM
I'll be ordering a GPU a couple weeks after I finish deciding on parts but i'm pretty much set on either the Asus geforce gtx 760 or the MSI gefore gtx 760.
Still haven't chosen a power supply or optic drive.
So please share your knowledge and experience with me!
