I'm not sure if it's against the rules to share a build, but I didn't see it in the rules.

I just wanted to thank the members of tom's hardware for helping me along the way. Everything from compatibility issues to which parts are of high quality, to how to set things up. In 2009 I didn't even know what a motherboard was... haha. The info I've received here was priceless :)

Nice computer and great to see another gamer making use of the X4 keyboard!! HUGELY underated keyboard. I prefer it over all the £100+ logitech ones and honestly think it looks better than them. I think the whole screen on your keyboard BS just looks tacky - especially as everyone seems to buy one for their gaming rig.
