So, I'm getting ready to put these:
Intel Core i7-3770K
GA-Z77X-UP5-TH
GeForce GTX 550 Ti
into this:
Corsair Carbide*500R
Pretty much following the Buyer's Guide recommendations. I don't need a super crazy graphics card, because I'm mainly doing audio. Also, this is my first Hack -- although I have built PC's before -- so I want to do my best to make sure it works on the first try.
My main buying advice question:
1. Should I buy a CPU cooler? This is not explicitly recommended in the buyer's guide, but cooler (vs louder?) seems worth $85 (Noctua NH-D14 120mm & 140mm SSO CPU Cooler) ... ?
Also,
2. I don't see this motherboard listed on the DSDT page (unless I somehow missed it). Should I expect to find a DSDT for this one in the next few days? Or am I missing something?
3. When/if do I need to run BridgeHelper? http://www.tonymacx86.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=43 (again, sorry for noobish questions, or if this has been answered somewhere - didn't see it anywhere in the UniBeast 1.5 guide)
