I randomly started youtube'ing computer videos about 3+ years ago (whenever the i5-2500k and GTX 560 Ti were out lol) and since then i have wanted to build my own.
took many years of putting build specs together, only not to have the money. finally got a chance to, and it has been a dream come true.
Only problem i had was that i couldn't get the damn Maximus VII Hero I/O back plate in the NZXT H440 right. so just left it out.
On the plus side, i bought am EVGA G2 750W 80+GOLD fully modular PSU for $105.... box came.. box says 750 G2.... but i got an 850 G2 in it XD gotta love it. Here is the build!

On a side note. i bought my own RJ-45 crimper (came with a cutter, tester, and 100 RJ-45 connectors) and terminated my first CAT cable (CAT-6a). was using the T568B wiring. (currently table a voice and data cabling class lol). worked perfectly.
Special Thanks to Logan and the whole Tek crew, and also Linus and Carey Holzman. been watching them since back when i got interested in it.
Getting a GPU in April.. but next up... Overclocking lol. aiming for 4.5GHz.. but idk, we will see.
