Zowie AM and Zowie FK are both pretty nice, and have somewhat similar shapes to the WMO. My friend who also used to use a WMO says the razer abyssus is nice too

#19 New Build is ready to order, one last check? in Hardware
KissmeHow much of an OC? I'm sure you'll watch the temp gauges to see when your CPU cooler reaches it's limit anyway.

Whatever my silicon can handle within safe voltages

KissmeMy brother literally just made the exact same build as this (with the exception of more RAM because the guy logs into the servers from online sometimes), for one of his co-workers. It is pretty dam fast. Also, because of the smaller case, there is a LOT of airflow inside of the case and not any noticeable dead pockets of air. As long as you setup the fans correctly (which ones are blowing in/out), the airflow will be amazing.

Do you plan on OC'ing?

Probably the nicest build I've seen on these forums.

Here's my plan for the case fans http://i.imgur.com/HHvu9L9.png

I do plan on OCing :)

frknThe 350D fits full length video cards and has excellent cable management. There is room for large air coolers depending on motherboard layout and ram heatspreaders.

If anyone is wondering about their motherboard and ram's compatibility with noctua coolers, noctua's site has an awesome list

KanecoAwesome... Although I would buy 16gb ram. If you have such a beast setup some more ram wouldn't hurt, and believe me it helps alot when rendering video, modeling, and heavy programs like those... I couldn't possibly use after effects with 8gb ram.

Also, no storage driver? I would get a 1-2tb WD caviar green

I'll definitely think about more ram, but I don't really do any editing or anything so i think it would be a waste for me. I have a network drive at home for all my movies and stuff, and a 500gb external i use for backups of big files.

Setsulmicro ATX is a weird choice for such a powerful build.
With an i7-4770K this looks like an editing build but then there's no HDD and only 8GB RAM.

Answering these two questions would help a lot:
What are you going to use it for?
Why micro ATX?

I chose an i7 because it's worth the 100 dollars to me to have hyperthreading in case i need it in the future. Mainly gaming. I chose MicroATX so the case has a slightly smaller profile on my desk, and i dont lose anything aside from some pci slots that i wouldnt use anyways.

RigelFan is pretty big, the only thing that might cause an issue is fitting it on a micro ATX with the RAM and GPU. That RAM hangs pretty low though so it will probably not be an issue. Everything else looks good to me though, except the GTX 780 ASUS is out of stock on Newegg.

I checked Noctua's website, the cooler is compatible with my mobo and ram. All the non-reference 780s always go out of stock :/

#13 New Mice? in Hardware
CelticLadyDeepRazer Abbysus.

40 bucks, good mouse.

I second this, especially if you have hands that are small or are comfortable with a claw grip style. Plus, both the Mirrored and the regular versions are priced at around $34 on Amazon right now.

I'd reccomend you buy the abyssus at a brick and mortar store, b/c of the jitter problem so if you need to exchange it's easier.

#4 Promblems with internet in Hardware
svejkyep yep, all plugged in, my computer doesn't have a wireless port.

Thanks for the conformation, I guess I need to order the new modem.

is there even an outside chance that my ISP is at fault?

If when you plugged it into the modem it still didn't work, then your ISP may have been at fault. Since the issue only occurs with your router, it's your router's fault.
