    I skipped 4,5,6 and 7th generations of intel completely so I could only google some knowledge but I bet everyone has the same (or better) googling skill :)

    Let me clarify myself - the point is - for the long term perspective on Intel side of the force - you should aim for i9 .. so at minimum we are talking about https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813144059&cm_re=x299-_-13-144-059-_-Product ( $220 ) +...

    don't listen to me lol ... I lose ability to build computers below 2k long time ago :) ... your mobo is really good for 6700k nobody is going to argue that.

    even 7700k could cause some issues with this board - I checked :((( .. also 7700k is much better with big cooling and inside of full tower ... so for upgrade memory ssd and videocard will be salvageable .. psu will be borderline and the rest is out :(

    well my latest i7-7700k pre-build lasted three hours of not too heavy testing before it hardware crashed and lose ability to even start star citizen all together lol ... returned less than 24h after purchase

    Looks fine and you got around your budget with all those promos ... the only thing to point out is - I wasn't able to find whether case has case fans included .. and judging by price - most probably not .. so think about getting one or two for the front intake

    Honestly ... I tried to get pre-build pc .. I tried not one .. not two .. but three times over last 10-12 years and I'm done with pre-builds. My current one is build at home, and while I know about few things I'm not happy with - it works much better than any of those pre-builds when they...

    Also as you are coming from consoles world you may want to have something non-standard - like https://pcpartpicker.com/b/jVw6Mp

    please put parts into pcpartspicker for real ... it's kind of tough to advice ( also getting K intels w/o custom cooling is waste of money ... and you need full tower preferably etc. etc. etc.

    Also - 1K is kind of tough thing to get great gaming pc from ... so anything you could offer as a salvageable addition from your console gaming times would help .... like hdmi tv / monitor etc

    Should we buy a Pioneer for $850 for the org?

    Only because I like highly complex things done after lots of beer is consumed - we should email spam org asking for skin transfer (or anything bigger) to the montoya's account as soon as possible, and this would give a montoya a chance to buy some 5-10-15 whatever pie in ears fot the org

    Intel Optane 900D SSD Optimised for Star Citizen

    I still try to understand usecase, and still fail. From personal experience - switching from good ssd to great m2 didn't bring noticeable difference in games/os loading etc. ( the great exception is synthetic tests ) ... so Optane would be nice for people who (for some strange reason) are...

    3.0 - How ready is it?

    I think so as well .. what worth mentioning though is that "public test instance" is called PTU .. and all "secret" testing resources are taken from that pool as well ( it would be quite painful to manage all data points reconnection for public test pool due to each secret testing wave :) )

    Will there be a new promo ship for this intel Optane partnership?

    Hmmm ... now I start being concerned on whether this "game changing ship" will be just a promo thing :( As for ssd itself - it could be logical step to buy it for the people who anyway was planning to upgrade to i7-8700 + z370 ... for the rest - 960 pro is good enough ... I wouldn't be...

    DirectorGunner may have a drinking problem

    Isn't it obvious? I support our glorious leader here - none of those cups is even remotely large enough for a good beer party @ owl's place

    Sorry - I'm really slow (comes with the age I guess) ... are you assuming that between 3 and 4 you MELT the ship that someone gave to you and re-buy it using your own real money ? And by the end of operation you'd just have some extra RSI creds on your account ?
