When you said you wanted to run outside the case I thought you had

I was able to afford those pieces in part by not replacing things I did
not need to.

Sorry to give you a hard time.

No problem ;-) This is my 2nd "new build", I've found there's such a
bewildering array of mobos, etc., that I tend to just go for something
that's sort of on the "bottom rung of the top tier", so to speak, that
way I seem to get near-state of the art performance, without spending
the absolute max, and also without having to spend eons studying each
available option. Kinda like buying the cheapest house in an expensive
neighborhood... ;-)
