cannot next time, next time means upgrade all together.
change parts and change block, change everything.

sell 780ti, buy 980ti sli, then build WC.
can last few at least 2-3 years without changing.

Haha for me the whole point is for me to stop changing parts. Keep buying and selling so feel remorseful...

IMO 780Ti still quite relevant card in 1080p (using measly 1080p) performance matches 980 just that much hotter than 980. Hold for a year or two when 4k is sibei affordable/when Pascal come out then say bah.

Then again if you tio poison me or I strike 4D/Toto won't exclude the possibility...

Guys, got any recommendation/experience for Fan hub/controller? Some choices I chanced upon:

Swiftech 8 Way PWM Splitter

Pros:
Cheap
Can detect fan speed thru PWM Fuction

Cons:
Only detects speed of 1 fan.
No variance in speed between fans (since mobo detects whole unit as one fan)

Corsair Commander Mini

Pros:
PWM detection for all fans
Can also use for led
Software controllable for fan settings

Cons:
Costly
Corsair link...

NZXT Sentry 3

Pro:
Convenient, can link fan speeds together.
Intuitive to use.
Touchscreen!!!

Cons:
Costly (compared to Swiftech solution)
Blue led does not fit theme.
No PWM...
Cannot detect fan speed?

Hmm still deciding.. Swiftech's solution may not be too bad after all...
Lamptron CM615 looks nice but ** so expensive :(

Lamptron fc5v2 at us$59.95. Cant choose colour at front panel but at the back. But it is 30w per channel and it works differently from other fc in the sense that it will not shoot to 12v at start up and thrn go down to desired voltage. It will slowly increase de.

when switch on will be at the voltage we set? Sounds interesting hmmm

But dont know to consider software or just manual hardware controller hmmm...
Understand that some software like quite chui/inaccurate also though...

Minor updates!

1. Update on purchase of CPU (thanks Avsquare!!) and RAM

2. Finally decided on loop order and choice of fittings (but not colours of fittings)
