Show Us Your Rig [8]

[pillainp]

Get a pair of CM JetFlo 120 or XtraFlo 120 fans. You could probably go flying yourself.

Seriously I have two XtraFlo's pushing through my radiator and my CPU stock temp is 34-35°C. Stress temp is 55-60°C, but that is probably because I messed up the pump installation slightly. Ambient here is 30-32°C.

I can feel a stiff breeze out the top of the case.

All that matters is how many 8 pin motherboard power connectors you need and how many the power supply has.

Are you good in that area ?

This link says they have 2

TX Series™ TX850 — 80 PLUS® Bronze Certified 850 Watt High Performance Power Supply

I am absolutely good.

I must have received one of the revised units following the reviewer comments.

Everywhere else it says 1 EPS.

Just upgraded my ram from 16 to 32gb, from 1866 to 2133 and from Crucial Ballistix to GSkill Sniper. I got a crazy good deal and now I'll replace my gal pal's Corsair 1333 with the Crucial's and sell the Corsairs. I'm a long ways away from needing DDR4 so this will keep me in this rig for many more moons !

Pretty slick

Look out for the Sniper

Nice Alan

Thanks guys,

It's a silly upgrade but I can already feel a snappier response as well when doing audio and video work it should shave some time. I tried to do a little timing tighten but I just don't have the feel yet and I think sometimes with this much ram you are just better off with what it wants to do and not to get to crazy with voltage and things?

 

[Layback Bear]

Alan if it was my computer I would leave the ram set to default specs. I have learned that if their are problems when using that much ram another 1/10 volt bump in ram voltage helps. But I wouldn't do that unless necessary.
For me over clocking ram really didn't do much in everyday use of my computers. The ram today is so fast not a lot of usable room to work with for overclocking.

Done with the new fans on the radiator, very quiet at full RPM, can`t really see the white fans on top, swung the rad around too.

Don`t ask how I managed that last shot but it looks so neat I thought I`s show it anyway :roflmao:

WOOOOAAH! Whats your Location??? i'm coming to Rob you

 

[linnemeyerhere]

Bilal, the rig is looking really tight with all the new changes. The glow from all the items is nice a subtle !

 

[ThrashZone]

Kind of anticlimactic but my little Acer mobo in it's new home is looking okay
Real temp showing a steady 38c

 

[Layback Bear]

What are those things right above the power supply with the red and black wires?

 

[ThrashZone]

Those 2 items are twisters to adjust the intake and exhaust rpm's
Since the Acer board only has 2 fan ports one for the cpu and the other for the back/ top fan
I had to add a controller then add fan speed adjusters to it
Works pretty good

 

[AddRAM]

The green Corsairs look awesome Mike, great job

 

[ThrashZone]

Thanks Brian it's working amazingly well
Can't believe I waited so long to pull the trigger :/

All I need is another monitor for it possibly next month

I feel the need to warn you that getting an additional monitor is an extremely dangerous thing to do. Once you do, you will be spoiled addicted and will never be able to go back! Trust me on this one (said the old lady who went from one to three monitors; four monitors if you include the TV cloned to the primary monitor)!

 

[ThrashZone]

lol yep well too late
The asus monitor has already spoiled me so I have to get another
I was thinking of this as Brian got one but I guess I'll stick to the same asus

Absolutely.......I have 3 LG L227WTG monitors LG L227WTG-PF Black 22" 2ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 10000:1DCR with HDCP Support - Newegg.com
and I love them. So sharp. Then the difficulty is you want more so you gradually add computers to the monitors and now I have 4 fairly decent machines hooked up to 3 monitors meaning I always have a working OS no matter what. So be warned. I got 2 monitors a month apart and then I started upgrading computers in 2010 to 2015 so now I have 4 PC's all controlled by mouse without borders.
The only time it ends is when you end up six foot under.

 

[ThrashZone]

Yep if I didn't like my Dell sound bar so much I might of already got a new monitor already :/
Seeing as the monitors I've had my eye on the cheapest is 250.+tax and the other is 399.us so the rush is off
