I know that they steal your info from the link but how do they bypass that verification thing that requires your email? Does anyone know? i've always wondered about that since I always have to enter in those random numbers that steam sends to my email when I log in from a diff computer.

You could always go by this list as well if you're looking for a pre-build with parts listed and price range. http://www.logicalincrements.com/

I have to agree with this. If you get the chance you should try to see what the numbers of the Blue Screen are which would definitely help detect what the problem is. The number im talking about is the one that say sometihng like 0x00000ea or something like that. It does sound like either a bad gpu, bad overclock(undervolt/overvolt), or an overheat on the south/north bridge of the mobo from the overclock

Its better to build it yourself cause you can swap part if something were ever to die. Also if you're not familiar with parts. You could always take a look at sites like http://www.logicalincrements.com/ that will have pre listed build that you can follow depending on your money and etc.

I would have to agree with the microcenter suggestion. They have the best prices on Intel processor. Also when you buy it with a motherboard you get an extra $50 off on the motherboard I believe.

If you friend doesn't have anything yet then its better to get the Haswell in a laptop. Haswell has better battery life and a better onboard graphic system. Then again it doesn't matter if youre friend gets a gaming laptop but I think gaming laptops are a waste of money. If you're not looking for a monitor immediately then I recommend waiting for a sale on the Asus VG248QE. They usually have sales on them for around 160-200$ and one of the best 23 inch. It has 1ms response time and 144hz refresh rate. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236313 If you're looking to get one immediately or pretty soon then I recommend either the Asus VN247H-P or the VX238H http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236305 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236307&nm_mc=OTC-pr1c3grabb3r&cm_mmc=OTC-pr1c3grabb3r-_-Monitors+-+LCD+Flat+Panel-_-ASUS-_-24236307

Maybe the mic line or the port is broken? Maybe test the mic on a different computer to make sure its working

Most ivy bridges can run 4.2 at stock voltage. You should up it to 4.2

The 560ti is an older generation GPU which requires alot more power than the 660ti. Its one of the reason why the 560ti has two PCI-e connectors on the card instead of one like the 660ti. For the 560ti you will need at least a 650w PSU if you plan on running the 560ti at stock speed, however if you overclock it then you will need a 750w power supply. You would need a powersupply that has 4 PCI-e connector plugs to power both your 560ti. Make sure it is a good brand as well! I usually go with corsair, seasonic, or OCZ System in IDLE = 201W System Wattage with GPU in FULL Stress = 449W These are the specs for the 560ti in SLI. As you can see your GPU running SLI would draw 449w alone at full GPU usage. Add in the proccessor, ram, cd drivers, and etc and you would need 600+W to run your entire rig stably in SLI .
