My new PC

Recommended Posts

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.

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 ;)

920's run at 4Ghz+ regularly

 

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

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.
