I am going to start to post some blogs about my most recent time/money waster...

I PLAN TO BUILD MY FIRST PC!!!

Yep that is correct, been using them since BASIC, but have never build one from scratch. I have replaced hdd, PSU, video cards and ram, but never assembeled all the parts and built one up from nothing.

So I have picked the brain of a couple PC geeks and started a wish list on Newegg. Now you may (or may not) ask why are you doing this LB and I will tell you because my current comp (8 years old) finally crapped the bed for the final time, plus I want a rig that I can stream my spectacular gaming failures on. Yes I know the Xb1 will be able to stream on twitch, eventually, but that time frame has not been too clear as to when it will be AND I am not super confident it will be working without a hitch from the start...

Also I am not abandoning my Xbox gaming ways, yes I play some pc games here and there, but it is more for streaming then anything else.

So I want to build a rig that can handle at a minimum 720p 60fps streaming. Which means yes I will be going for a Hasswell i7, at least 16gb's of ram, intensity pro capture card and a BIG O'FULL SIZE ATX CASE!!! i am tired of working in a case that is barely big enough for the components that are in them, not to mention my meat claws.

So after coming to a decission on using the Asus Sabertooth z87 mobo and actually reading the suggested components guide from Asus I have started picking up parts to "potential name of the comp goes here" taking advantage of some discounts on Black Friday:

That is all my wallet can take for now, I will update as I go along and I might even record the "build event" so everyone can get a laugh at me freaking out.

Oh and I will leave you with these last few images of...BEWBS
