Lol indeed :) I take it games aren't a priority ?
And shall ever be thus
At least we can still utilize the hardware for the most part.
I can see how it could appear that way, but if you knew me better mate you'd know I don't play that game :)
I'm pragmatic. I realize my rig is an uber rig compared to many, but it's still mid-high compared to others. I don't deny I'm proud of it however. I've already said I love my setup and have been complemented on it - I don't need 'sneak' compliments. No pretense here
To slip into the high category I'd expect a watercooled X79 system with 3-4 GTX titans in SLI, x3 30" screens, all max capacity SSD's etc
Compared to a system like that, mine doesn't hold up.
I'm simply asking what others consider to be a high end rig since opinions vary.
Lol. I don't have debt or kids and do flap all else - that's the only way I've managed to build my machine. I will let this rig run through a few more generations I think.
Yep. It's called surround for nvidia and Eyefinity for AMD. Some games I stick to single screen for performance reasons, but most others I game at 5760x1200 so it's pretty resource demanding. That's why I decided on a third card. Cheaper than two new 780's etc.Now, let me understand something... do you play on all those 3 screens at the same time or I am reading all these wrong?
Yep :)
Tbh, I could actually do with more power solely because of surround. For single screen, it is massive overkill.See your rig to me would not be high end, it would be to the point where it is complete overkill, because I would never need that much power. Now your rig may not be overkill to you but simply high end, again depending on what you do and how you use it.
Thanks Mate :)P.S. Nice rig man!
