Ordered the motherboard today. So glad the Z77 chipset opened up the playing field and brought ivybridge support to an acceptable price point, paid less than half of what I was planning for.Originally Posted by Ominous Gamer
Its a Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H
$119.99, which brings my build total up to ~$764.
Ran into a bit of a spacing issue inside the case. Thanks to size of the radiator my exhaust fan is screwed to the outside rear of the case and I had to cut a section off of one of the radiator fans to make room for the USB ports located on the top of the motherboard. It looks clean, but I suspect I'll be picking up some scythe slim model 120mm fans for a more complete and traditional look. Once the motherboard comes in I'll throw up some pictures.
