did you use some sort of software to set up the network initially or did you have manually access the router using the IP address? If you used the proprietary software, I would guess that you could rerun the software to get rid of the guest access.

When are we planning on doing the Benchmarks test? I'm hoping to have my new build sometime done sometime within the next week or so, and I want to try to win that H100 before I go buy one!

Yo guys, one more question about my new build. I'm eventually buying a new monitor. What are some things to look at in buying a new monitor?

Depends on what you want. Right now I'd save the money for a better video card before a monitor. I have an asus vh236h and I think it's one of the best for the price (Newegg has refurbs that are $129.99 when in stock)

+1 on the 24 inch 1080p asus monitors. I bought mine new for like 150 with free shipping. Its pretty good for 1080p gaming and was a fair price. Considering that you have a budget build going on I wouldn't worry about a new monitor until you are ready to upgrade your gpu. Monitors certainly get a lot higher definition and quality but that comes with a bigger price tag.

Well shite I have 3 23" on my desk with 2 other oldish (gateway and NEC) flatscreens in my closet. You can easily pick up a decent monitor off craigslist

i was gonna say pawn shop but craigslist is a good idea too. you don't need anything high end. but seriously if you don't find any killer deals, just bear with that shitkicker for a while until you save enough for a monitor and gpu. I bet you'll have the money saved in no time.

I'll probably be selling my monitors soon to go to a bigger single monitor... Since I'm downsizing my build I don't think my 7970 will handle eyefinity as nicely as my two 7950s

ASRock Z77 Extreme4 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Rosewill CHALLENGER ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports. Is this a big problem or not really?

Not a big deal. I don't really give a shite about USB 3.0. If you absolutely needed it you could get an adapter that would fit in a 5.25 bay. I don't ever use that many USB ports. You get 4 maybe 6 on the board itself and 2-4 at the front depending on the mono and case you pick. I also don't really notice a big jump in performance with USB 3.0 but the. Again I am not moving a ton of data via USB that often.
