It'll probably be awhile until I get the heart 8700K though

I hear you. I'm still waiting on items to become available.

A good thing to use, to find out as soon as possible, set it up as a My Topic in MSN, and/or keep an eye on: NT Compatible

Just curious guys. How many of you sign up and pay up for the Intel Tuning Protection plan?

I have for the last several chips now. Saved my bacon on two different occasions to date. No questions asked, just sent me a new chip.

Looks like you will have a great rig there Cliff.

@doorules I never have. I have planned on buying one with my last couple of CPUs but just never got around to it, I guess. Maybe I'll remember in time if I get another one.

For the CPU:
In German "delidded" is called "geköpft", which literally translated into english is "decapitated"
der8auer Core i7-8700K @ 5,0 GHz - Pro Edition | CASEKING.deAttachment 163769

I see you bought one of those deBauer chips. Do let us know how that went :)

Good luck on new system.
