dat videocard....

 

Why get all that but not water cooling?

[idl3]

Sorry not versed in water cooling never invested in it. I figure if I can keep running at a cool 35 degrees celsius I'm ok at OC 4.5 I should be good.

meh, the 690. That's only like a 1000 dollar/euro :pokerface:

On which resolution do you play?

 

First one I see that buys a 512gb SSD, bit jelly. Although I don't really need it, 256gb is more than enough for me

You should have put in a pci express SSD though, just for showing of ^^

 

ew, gigabyte. Hate that brand

 

Why an i7, just curious because for gaming hyperthreading is useless ^^

Which psu is it?

 

Sorry for the question, I tend to have many when I see people building pcs (the green one I really want to know )

I sure never would do something like this setup, but sure is a killer rig.

You do realise you can get an i5 which a switch on it to boost it in i7, for the price of the i5. ^^

 

Common sense to get it really.

Mind providing a link to that statement?

I have OCZ 850w PSU. The TDP for the Vidcard is 300W and the CPU is 70 so I'm well equipt with this. I'm sure it would be safe to have a 1500W PSU but I didn't have the extra $ for that at the time.

 

Cheers

Is that your signature at the bottom of your post? Looks like you have an i7 processor?? :/

 

I'm running 1600x1200 if there is a way to get HD please let me know, I'm a noob with .cfg files.

I bought my i7 before I knew there were the i5 with a boost.

That is not a proof. i7's have HTT, some have VT-d, stuff like that. And generally, higher ranked CPU's have better quality chips. Perhaps not worth it for you, but there is a very good reason they have a different price.

I am just curious, maybe I didn't know about that switch and you hark on me? Just curious why really. And if you can provide link that would be great I'll send my i7 back and get an i5.
