#25308 Posted on: 14.05.2012 21:18:55 yeah i would rather go for two 670's rather than the 690. but since im building a mini itx wc'd pc one reference 670 is perfect because of its size.

#25311 Posted on: 14.05.2012 23:00:47 well. i WANT to use the new p8z77i deluxe and overclock the bejesus out of my 2500k. i also wouldnt mind using the asrock z77e-itx motherboard. but since im putting so much $ into the watercooling and case i'm going to use this probably: Newegg.com - Foxconn H67S LGA 1155 Intel H67 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s Mini ITX Intel Motherboard but i'd be fitting it in this: Newegg.com - LIAN LI PC-TU200B Black Aluminum Mini-ITX Tower Computer Case and modding the heck out of the case to support a 120mm rad on the side and putting a window on the top. but those are the plans.
