Well it didnt take very long at all to build , less so than it did installing W7 then upgrading to W10

infact it wasnt untill it was almost ready to ship and ready to put the side panels on that i noticed the windowed panel was fitting the cooler pipes on the GPU ... DOH

Never really occurred to me that it could be a problem even after changing to cpu cooler just prior to purchase due to getting info that it was too high from the mobo to fit.

Anyway GPU went back and replaced with the Gigabyte equivalent .

I did think about spraying the cooler fan but once its switched on it changes colour anyway.
other than that its very quite almost silent infact.

Only installed The Division but it was running at a solid 60FPS at default settings ( Mostly High )

As for the CPU / Mobo .. very nice mix .. very nice informative BIOS
and managed to take the CPU upto 4.5ghz with no problems at all ,
although a water cooler for the CPU would be advisable for prolonged use.
They didnt want to clock it anyway so reverted to defaults before despatch.

Very nice, been looking at building something very similar to this so i can play games at the girlfriends.  PDT_Armataz_01_01

What do you think of the Noctua cooler? Will be needing something with a  low profile and this was on the list!
