This has turned into a hobby for me. This would be the 4th PC build in the last year I have done. Maybe Ill keep this one, unless someone wants to step up....

Here are the specs.

This machine is awesome in gaming as expected. I dont do much else with it, but I do run all the benchmarks for multithreaded performance, and its a monster. I play BF4 still, and believe it or not [MENTION=5]Mook[/MENTION] I have been playing BLOPS3 and enjoying it. Still playing GTAV and NBA2K16 also. Plus several others. I get all my games from g2a.com and pay pennies on the dollar for them. Got Shadow of Mordor from there for $6 a few weeks ago. Its addicting to get it all built, cable managed then run all the benchmarks to see if I did it good or not. And this one is one of my allstars.

Lol well heres the real plan. I did the X99 and this board, because its already set for the Broadwell-E CPUs that are going to be available Q2 this year according to Intel. Probably once they announce them at computex in June. But I can literally just pull this CPU, sell it, then drop in the new broadwell-e 6800k or whatever it is.

And with this CPU being one of those golden batch ones, it should sell for TOP DOLLAR. I mean you can get the same one from https://siliconlottery.com/collections/2011-3/products/5820k47g for $530.
