Stalker's custom PC desk

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
Might have to take a vacation in the u.s. the prices are dropping nicely as usual after the 1080ti's were released.

Just a litlle update from yesterday. I got my new GPU, the Gigabyte GTX 1050Ti O4G. Buy it for ~180 euros.



Next one is to order new molex to 6pin cable (probably from QuietPC, I think they have some good one), because this one is not looking good to me.


Also, Graphics Engine software is great for changing that colors and overclocking the GPU.
That's for now, difference between 750Ti and this one.... I got that.

Hi,
Why using a molex and not a direct 6 pin to 6 pin vga ?

 

[StalkeR]

Hi, that's cuz this PSU (some unknown) don't have 6pin VGA connector. I still didn't mounted my CM G650M.

Hi,
Thought it might be why

I sent a corsair psu back because I despised their wiring
They used pigtails on two wires to the gpu
I thought that was really chickenshit of them to do that but might be better than using a molex but is pretty much the same concept :/

A lot of the PSU companies are doing that now. I'm not fond of it either, but they swear that it's fine, power wise. They did it to make wiring easier and cleaner. I prefer the old fashioned way. But, I'm that way with most things. There's probably a reason for that.

Unless the PSU wasn't modular, I would have just removed the pigtails and/or made up my own cables (I have done both).

Myself would just get a power supply that had the proper cables and yes it would be a modular power supply.
Two brands I have luck with is Corsair and Evga. Last time I checked Evga has very good pricing.

Just to update the thread.

CM Sentinel was changed, so I bought Asus ROG Gladius and also Asus Cerberus. Plus, I got some protection over the pc parts.

Here are some pictures

For now, I'm done. Next one maybe will be just XXL mousepad, QcK XXL maybe.

Hi,
Looking good

 

[StalkeR]

One little update here.
Before few days I got some XL mousepad from DeepCool, Gamer Storm E Pad Plus...

Buy it for 15 euros. I can say that it's very good and Gladius is gliding great.

Edit: I can't see the picture, maybe it's some problem with my ISP. If someone else cannot see it also, link here.

Nice pad Boshko, nice price too.

 

[Lady Fitzgerald]

Alright, Boshko, that's enough of that! Stop making us all look bad compared to the good work you do!

All seriousness (?) aside, you are an inspiration to the rest of us with your rig! Keep it up!

 

[StalkeR]

Thanks people. Next one will be one more 4GB of Fury RAM, to fill all that 4 slots = 16GB. That will be enough for me.
Next one, will be investigating in CPU cooler, probably some air cooler.

 

[StalkeR]

It's been a long time since I post here... So hello there.
Just a little update with the RAM... Added one more and got 16GB now.. 2 x Blue and 2 x Black..

 

[Lady Fitzgerald]

Yipes! Stripes!

Looking good!

 

[essenbe]

Looking good Boshko. Well done. You've done an excellent job.

 

[rvcjew]

Nice to see it continue to evolve.

Sweet upgrade! We'll just finish installing the parts from 4WheelOnline for the truck and I'll start upgrading my desktop. 16GM is my target as well.

 

[StalkeR]

Thanks people. Next upgrade will be good PSU, and NVME disk after the prices become normal...
