I almost used that MoBo on my last build. The USB 3.0 is a nice addition since were going to start seeing more of it in the near future. Look forward to seeing the end result. Keep us updated.

Hey Third Bat
The intel i7 extreme 980x is actuall slower than the 2600k out of the box and about 600. cheaper
I was just reading some forums about it on a gaming cpu hierarchy chart.

Cowboy in my oppinion stay away fromt the coolermaster tower I had that one and changed to the Antec 1200 comes with 6 fans with filters to keep the dust out. Plus you can install 2 more 120 fans to direct the air to the cards. The only draw back to the antec 1200 it has no Post beep speaker I removed from my other tower and mounted in this one without any issues.

Another article
http://www.pcper.com/comments.php?nid=9695

And newegg has officially pulled all sandy bridge chips and motherboards off their website.

This could cost up to 1 billion dollars to fix- oops. The sandy bridge was looking pretty good as well.

PostSubject: I7 Sandy Bridge Recall   New Build  Battlefield 3 Icon_minitimeTue Feb 01, 2011 5:49 pm

Ok guys i just figured out what the recall is for.
This is for the Cougar Point sandy bridge chip set made to the intel motherboards Not the CPU.
They Are realling all motherboards with this chip set
So the I7 SandyBridge Is ALL GOOD
But know I have to send back the P8p67 Pro ASUS Board i just bought
Oh Well better now then after I built it.

I have a coolermaster full tower and love mine, however I do have the dust issue. So the fan and the filter are together as one in Antec?

I own Coolermaster's HAF 932 full size tower. I had to personally build a stand so it would not sit directly on my carpet. Although, it sucks in dust like a V8 sucks gas. Just blow out the dust once a month and you'll be fine.

I have a CoolerMaster CM Stacker 830. Mine is on wheels. I have had it for about two or three years and I keep it dusted.
