Whom is still rocking an Athlon / Phenom II (even X6), or a Core2Duo/Quad? X58 users too.

My i5-750 is still kicking on daily in a family computer

Nanoxia Deep Silence vs Fractal Design?

Having used both the Deep Silence 1 and Define R5, I must say I prefer the Define R5, although both are excellent.

Help Choose a Good X99 Motherboard

I have an Asus X99-A that I'm a pretty big fan of. Anandtech Review I have a buddy with an MSI X99S Gaming 7 that he likes quite a bit. Of the boards you listed, I would go for the MSI before either of the Gigabytes, due to personal experience.

noctua NF-A15 as case fan?

In my Define R5 I'm using three NF-A14s as intake and they are amazing. However, in your case, you need either 120mm fans or the NF-A15, which will do the job well but is more suitable for the coolers it comes with. For your cases front intake I would recommend the NF-S12A. Noctua claims it...

What socket after 2011-v3?

2011v3 and X99 just came out, they probably won't be replaced for quite some time, especially the socket.

Single vs Dual Channel

Is there really a huge difference? I bought a single 8GB stick the other day at Microcenter for a mini-ITX build I'm doing for a family member, but as time has gone by waiting for a few other parts from Amazon its bugging me more and more that the system is (so far) going to be single...
