My new PC

[HavockJoker]

Built this about a month ago. Spent about $2250 and running strong. Cable management hasn't been done yet cause will be doing mods to the case, including side panel window, future watercooling with top panel holding Thermochill Pa120.3 rad. Interior painted black. Trying to get Tacen fans but not available in US yet. And cut cable management holes in motherboard tray.

Damn! Nice PC there, wayyy better than mine :P might get a quad soon, not the i7, toooo expensive for my tiny pocket.

You got pwnd. For what you got you paid to much. At least, prices here in Holland are lowe.

(You said 3,8ghz, but it says 2,8?)

[Sponge]

3.8ghz is a little too high for a 920. Considering the stock is 2.67Ghz. I'd make sure you keep a freezer in your case.

[HavockJoker]

I got a Cooler Master V8 CPU cooler. I can run 4.0Ghz but its kinda unstable.

[Sponge]

Hell, I'd say it's unstable...!

 

Take it easy with that processor, I'm slowly forming an army of i7's to combat Beem3r :)

[HavockJoker]

Its ok. The 920 can handle being overclocked as long as it is sufficiently cooled. Btw what is beem3r's setup?

[SLRRR]

3.8ghz is a little too high for a 920. Considering the stock is 2.67Ghz. I'd make sure you keep a freezer in your case.

 

You can go to 4 ghz + with a i7 920 and proper cooling.

 

 

Nice system btw shame off the cablemanagment ;)

yeah I know. There is only one hole for Cables and its wedged between PSU and Mobo. I'm gonna add about 4 more holes around the case.

[KoenigseggBG]

920's run at 4Ghz+ regularly

 

@ OP: if you update you bios then you should be able to run it with a 21x multiplier

Like a dream. Easy 750-90FPS on both GTA IV and Crysis.

 

@macd79: will do man. Thanks for the heads up.

750!!!!! :shocked:

 

I know it's a typo ;)

 

And nice PC

[iLLGT3]

Very nice! Nice case too.

I reckon you could have saved a chunk load of money and got a normal Quad Core CPU, then Overclocked it rather than spending what i assume is a lot on an i7, which i belive are for businesses and so on at the minute.

[HavockJoker]

The 920 cost me $220 USD. Pretty cheap for the speed. The Quad core extreme overclocked to 4.0 is slower than the i7 920 stock. I use my comp for 3d rendering in AutoCAD and 3ds Max. So i'm pretty glad for the extra speed.

[GTAMADDOG]

Sweet. I want the CPU cooler just because of it's name. I was looking at that same cooler a few months back.

 

Nice rig.
