Built a new PC recently..

Recommended Posts

 I put a new PC together recently as my other had been around for a while.

I am in no way a super PC geek but I believe this one to be pretty good.

 

I decided to share some of the specs with you guys/girls, hope I got the info right..

 

I dunno much about cases but I think this is an ATX case, black with a window on one side and cool looking neon blue lights shining through.

the rest is as follows (If I forgot to mention something important, remind me and I will post it also)

 

AMD FX-8320 Eight Core CPU

 
Geforce GTX 1080 GPU
 
32 gigs of ram
 
2048 GB 2TB SATA III 
 
24x DVD±RW Dual-Layer Super-Multi Drive
 
Liquid cooled
 
8x USB
 
I feel like this should last me for a while and help me play Battlefield 1 nice and smooth when it finally releases..
 
I didn't post this to brag, I just wanted to share it with you all :D
 
 
The only thing not new with this system is the OS.. I am not a fan of Win 8/8.1/10 So I installed Win7

O.o you got a 1080... why amd chip <_<? Intel pairs so much better for modern gaming. Still nice little build ^.^

Well I'm not so much PC savvy and put things together bases on price more than anything hehe

Yeah the price of the 1080 is why I had to skimp a bit on other things lol

The cheapest I found one at the time was $649.00 they may be a little cheaper by now though

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I googled a bit just now and saw them around $599, so you may even find them somewhat cheaper

Yeah, GTX 1080 is a beast, though I think that FX 8350 would bottleneck the system a bit. You can check this up by running a game and checking CPU usage on Task Manager, if its 100% all the time then the CPU is bottleneck. HWinfo64 saves the data also.

Any pics? Do you have CPU\GPU under custom liquid cooling loop?:o

 

(I´m waiting AMD-s Vega till I´m upgrading GPU, should bring prices down and also would force nvidia to come out with a GTX 1080Ti. At least thats what I hope)

Nice build bro!

What Vanaraud said though, I feel like that 8320 might be a bottleneck for the 1080! Not to worry, overclock and be happy!

Pics would be nice too.

I will do some pics tomorrow and post them..  I didn't know about the bottleneck or maybe I would have went another route, but so far I have been able to play all games in ultra settings at a crazy high fps so I am pretty happy hehe :D

Well you know what I'm gonna say....so I won't.  It's like this....Fender or Gibson???

I am not 100% what you might say but as far as Fender or Gibson, I am a Fender man all the way :D

Also..... Crap I forgot pics... I am going to do that right now hehehe :D
