What motherboard is that though? I assume it's going to be Z97 because of the Haswell Refresh K-series CPU, though what brand and what model? 

 

Filly, this is the motherboard I ended up getting today.

 

And yes, it's Z97

 

I took a gamble and got a refurbished board rather than a brand new one outright. This was about 35% less expensive than a new board of this kind. I showed it to Daring and he said it seemed like a nice board. He liked the 8+2 power phase (and I'm going to have to do more research into that, but from what I can gather, it just means it has better electricity delivery and better overclocking potential). I liked it because it looks like a solid board, it's ASUS and while I think ASUS is a bit on the overpriced side, they do have well-built products (in my experience), and it has plenty of expansion slots, unlike all the CPU+motherboard deals I was finding on Newegg. So hopefully this was something someone used for a few days, decided he didn't like it, so he sent it back and it's hardly been used. 

 

I tend to buy major parts like the CPU, GPU, mobo, etc new because you want the warranty and whatnot that comes with a new part. But I've spent enough money on this thing. I need to seriously chill. So that's why I took a gamble on a refurb. I don't mind gettign minor parts like a network card or a blu-ray drive used. But the major components...I don't know. I'll have to see what this is like. I don't think it's going to be bad because it's a manufacturer refurbished board.

Well, it seems like a good board for the price.

I'm super stoked.

 

I think that's funny I got the same board you want to get

Don't let this happen when you wake up, @!

 

 

Title text: Hang on, I've heard this problem. We need to pour water into the duct until the phone floats up and ... wait, phones sink in water. Mercury. We need a vat of mercury to pour down the vent. That will definitely make this situation better and not worse.

Yeah, we're definitely on the same 'board' right now...

 

Okay, that's a tastelessly-done pun on "the same page".

 

Night Woona!

 

Wew, another MLP episode tonight. Damn, do the days go fast with CTAM...

That's really late. Are you going to stay up and watch it then, or wait till tomorrow?

I usually sleep at 12:30AM or 1:00AM, so I can definitely watch it live.

Broadcast ends at 2am for me, so you can count me out again.
