    Power supply needs to make a certain power on the rails for 770 and above. Do research I don't know the specific values.

    Don't go cheap on the board. A B85 is a low-end board, with a low-end chipset, which bottlenecks your CPU. Plus it's micro-ATX. smaller board = smaller e-peen
    I'd get a Z87 instead. An Asus Z87-K costs around $50 more but it's much better.

    If you get a 4690, you will have to update the BIOS in your motherboard (unless it's a Z97/H97), for which you'll need an older LGA1150 CPU that's supported by the Z87 mobos.

    The rest of your build is nice.

    Why don't people check their PSU...
    Go with a good 600W. You'll have plenty of upgrade headroom, and your PSU should always be ~50 watts in excess of what you need.
    And don't buy generic PSUs. If it fails, it will probably kill most parts, and warranty doesn't cover PSU failure.

    Yeah, don't cheap out on the board. If you do you'll wish you didn't. My current board was $80 (Gigabyte 970A-UD3P) and I'm very happy with it. My last board was okay. Definitely not as nice to use as my current one. (MSI A75A-G35)

    Anyway, I'm taking apart my phone because of borked digitizer (It also gets burning hot in the corner where the digitizer connection is when I plug it in.) and I got the bottom part off but I can't take apart the screen assembly because it uses even smaller torx screws than the bottom part and I can't find a bit small enough..

    If you are referring to IRC, then all it is is rape and people gutting you with a giant cactus. (from my experiences)

    I still have no idea what these quote things mean or why they're supposed to be hilarious.

    Does someone want to fill us in?

    I didn't mean only #BeamNG, but the two other channels I am in usually are involved with a greeting along those lines.

    Pic for proof after I joined:

    Edit: Don't be inappropriate in #BeamNG. That is for help and support. Go to #Offtopic for that stuff up there.
