    Note quite correct, I have a Haswell on this very rig and it does have an integrated GPU. But what's relevant in this thread is that Eddie's (non-mainstream ) CPU doesn't.

    Ok Mr Pedantic, none of the socket 2011v3 Haswell-E/Broadwell-E enthusiast chips have onboard GPUs. The more common consumer socket 1150/1151 chips do.

    There's always a smart arse.

    So, yeah, that escalated quickly. At least I kept the CPU and RAM...

    Nice scene from the upcoming Tron movie...

    And I'll be joining the upgrade band wagon in the near future. Plan on keeping the case and that's about it. No RGB though as my box is tucked away in my desk. How do you like that Corsair cooler? I'm looking at the same one.

    Second one I've had, they're great. I moved from a H100i to the H115i purely for larger (quieter) fans.

    I've got the same cooler as well on an X99 and they are great. Changed the fans from the corsair ones to phanteks as they are much quieter.
