GPU WB so expansive, saw mine around RM2k for all the bridge, fitting, fullWB, backplate from EKWB.
cannot afford high end cards I think my 970 should be enough for few years.
I'm thinking current rad isn't it enough for a cpu only? all those misc parts wanted to buy but don't know where to get. Asked before some sellers and they're out of stock.
Yeap. using XSPC bloody red. Now what left is some bling bling to show the coolant colour

Haha, I just refresh my setup to X99 and GTX980Ti, now really broke

I just noticed that EKWB shop doesn't automatically invoice price without VAT like it used to. So if anyone want to buy from EKWB, make sure you get invoice without VAT.

we running very similar setup

Is it? Haha, itchy hand actually, X99 is overkill to me

it auto deduct after checkout

ya same here... although the fact that my pc boots up in 10-25 seconds compared to my sister's z97(sub 10) and my mom's laptop (sub 5) irks me to no end.

really hate gaygaybyte bios lol (the delay is on bios, windows load in like 2-3 seconds)

Yup, and the price also increased (or maybe due to our RM depreciation), last time i bought GPU block with backplate & shipping roughly about RM500++, now i'm planning to get the GTX980Ti block with backplate nearly RM700 including of shipping. 

Bro i tot it is the nature of X99 board maybe?   My previous Z87 system is booting faster than my current system 

lol our ringgit went to hell.
however since euro went to shit too, it wasn't that bad. besides i bought my stuff before GST where everything since that time period just went on a nosedive
not sure, but i'm sure it shouldn't be intended, or the bios is in need of serious optimization :/

Since EK updated their online store, we (Asian countries) can't used Euro currency anymore, we have forced to use USD

Bro audio is more worst than pc,  i'm not even dare to touch it at all 
The problem with X99 is the DDR4 still at high price, i bought the 16GB Kingston HyperX Predator 3000mhz @RM1200

It's okay, my C602 takes almost 2 minutes to fully start up. 

It just feel bad a setup costing more than 4 times the money boots up slower lol

Trust me on this, I know how you feel.
Can you believe a sub 20k system takes almost 2 minutes to go through it's stupid BIOS and start up?

You'll get used to it soon. Besides, startup time isn't that important.

Do a UEFI windows Installation.
As to y x99 needs longer init is because of the DDR4 init. Set more manual settings including all the iols etc.. you can change the mem boot to faster options.

Its equally fast as a z87/97 on uefi install.
