Kind of disappointed to be going 4770K instead of 4930K but I really, really want to shrink my build down to ITX.

Just curious but why downsizing? My CaseLabs Merlin S8 sits on top my desk and isn't all that large.

Also if you're going Node get a blower 780.

Maybe eventually. I have to get it built first but to do that I need to sell all the shite I have, which including my build, is basically 5 gaming PCs.

I could build the new one without selling them no problem but I am not allowing myself to do so until I get rid of some of the shite I have.

Just to I guess but mostly because I want to integrate my PC more into my furniture instead of it standing out so much. I am gay like that.

Yea I probably need to get a reference card anyway just in case.

Whoaaaaa you sound like me! I have boxes of MOBOs, CPUs, GPUs and PSUs. The bad part is most of my spare shtt in boxes are AMD CPUs and MOBOs.

Send that shite to me. I will put it to use and split the profits with you after your initial cut off the top that is.

That reference blower is great and looks awesome.

About the "standing out computer"... idk man, that doesn't bother me because my computer is in my office/computer room which is across the house. Now if the computer was in the dining/living/game room I could understand that. My HTPCs are all in Lian-Li iTX cases because they look remarkable without standing out.

I put a few things on eBay in the last month. I'm about to send Bruce some watercooling stuff like pump/pump top and other shtt. Really need to do some sorting of my computer parts. My computer room's closet is stacked from bottom to nearly ceiling with boxes/hardware/parts.

I don't have my gaming PC in my home office because I use my office for work since my business is home based. It is already cluttered enough in there with equipment, filing cabinets, etc. I have 28" plotter printer in there for example.

I keep my gaming PC in a corner in my master bedroom. That's why I want to integrate it more into my other furniture.

I am actually about to go to sleep. I think I am going to work tomorrow to try and catch up. I put it off today for football. Need to get some sleep though.

I may be interested in buying a PSU and water cooling parts if you have some extras

Yeah.. I have RESs and a ton of EK and Bitspower fittings.

Just hooked up the Lightning for the first time.. beautiful card. About to do "strictly" stock 3DMark run before flashing a custom BIOS.

I have an XSPC rasa Intel CPU block and an XSPC Razor 7970 full cover VGA block.

I also have an OEM Asetek liquid cooler that looks to be equivalent to H50 or H60. Not sure what socket it fits.

Tons of barbs, hose clamps, some primochill tubing (blue), and a 120mm Swiftch MCR-QP radiator. Need to locate the plugs for it. (it's a crossflow)

Stout

or anyone else who sells on Amazon.

I purchased a 4770K and ASUS Z87 Impact iTX like 2 mins ago. Now the Impact's Red/Black scheme will clash against the Lightning's Yellow/Black. So returning the Lightning for a Classy might be an option. I knew since ordering the Classy should have been my card (EVGA fanboy also).

So now I'm in the market to sell my current 3770K but tired of taking a hit from eBay. So, what process must I go through to sell anything on Amazon?

EDT:
Nvm just went through the process. Very simple...

What are some pros/cons with selling expensive items on Amazon vs eBay?

I was looking at it for my next build, but it's too pricey for an ITX imo
