do you need to keep putting the 30days verification key?

no, I just downloaded a legit copy of windows 7 ultimate from microsoft, then ran a crack
eight months later and it still works beautifully

I just got it from my friend soundtoxin, and it was pretty easy. You should be able to find one (probably) trustworthy.

I mean, its risky business, if it ain't legit you're gonna have something nasty on your hands.

>cheaping out on the PSU


RE: Help with the Comp Build! - merkinkids - 01-07-2015

if you are getting a 980 it might be worth it to get a 4790k


RE: Help with the Comp Build! - TylerToast - 01-07-2015

^ That was stupid.
Unless you plan on doing heavy video editing or streaming as a job getting an i7 is down syndrome. Its a waste of money and you will probably never squeeze the performance out of it anyways.

What you should do is get a better PSU. An AX series or a RM Series from Corsair should do fine.

You're also forgetting a CPU cooler.
