Hey So after a year I am going to retry a build , Last time I failed/gave up after much hair pulling using a Asus Sabertooth Z77 :banghead:. In the end I ended up just using as a windows machine but gonna give it another go changing to a Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H as it is on the buyers guide.

Would this work with my current cpu or do I need to upgrade to the new haswell one.

Gear I have

- i7 3770

- COOLER MASTER GX 650W 80PLUS BRONZE PSU

- TP-Link TL-WN951N Wireless N PCI 3T3R 300M
- LG GH24NS95 24X SATA INTERNAL SATA DVD WRITER
- Cooler Master Silencio case
- apple wired keyboard
- logitech g400 mouse
- LG flatronic screen

Any help and recommendations will be greatly appreciated as real want to do it right this time :).
 
You'll need to get a Haswell socket 1150 cpu. Look at the 4770 (1) or 4770K for the best

Thanks! everything else look good?

The TP Link wifi card you've listed I've never seen before. Why not go with
one of the two choices in the April B.Guide ?
 
Hi
The WIFI card you listed wont work wit OSX. I had the same card and after month without a kext for this card a had bought the TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 and this card worked out of the box.

(sorry for my English ;D
)
 
Ok cool the wifi card is no biggie as they don't cost to much :D
