Hi,

I am going to start a new build named PST: Project Silicon Talisman. I have received most of the parts and awaiting some. It is a combination of old and new parts. I am not upgrading monitor, CPU, motherboard and memory as there isn't much to gain with the Skylake over Haswell Devil's Canyon. The build consists of the following components:

Samsung U28D590D 28-Inch Ultra HD (4K) Monitor
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K Haswell Devil's Canyon

PSU: SuperFlower Leadex GOLD 1300W Fully Modular "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black
Case: Phanteks Enthoo Luxe Full Tower Case - Black
