Purple would look awesome :lol:

Nice PC you've got there, hurry up and mail it to me.... :para:

I'm not good with wiring and all that. Plus, this is sleeved and I certainly can't resleeve cables to save my life.

Your case really lights up the place. :)

I don't see the point in having a disco inside your case but it looks good :P can you turn them off/on anytime you want?

hmm I couldn't decide this, should I buy a case with a psu or should I buy a rubbish case then buy a good psu afterwards. I could do with a rubbish case it doesn't has to be flash.

iLLGT3 · August 1, 2011

Spend the money on a PSU. The case really doesn't matter.

Yes, cases that include PSUs often have some cheap generic PSU, which might appear to have a decent amount of power, but lack any protection for your hardware, or are inefficient (increasing power bills).

Ozzmcom · August 1, 2011

yeah thought so , I'll stick with the good psu rubbish case option

I've pretty much made up my mind on crossfire 6850's. More to come!

And just when I thought one 6850 was enough to play everything. :/

I reackon 1 hd 6890 would've been enough

A little update on what's gonna happen. I will be purchasing a Corsair water cooler, (not sure which one yet) Corsair Graphite 600T White Edition (and also buying a custom side panel like you see below) and another XFX HD6870. Instead of 6850.

It's gonna look like this..

That just look s a bit daft to me. :hmmm: But that's just me.

:(

I was hoping not to get caught lol

It'll be awesome. Just need to find some pink LED's.

looks nerdy... great. Altho I still think cpu should always be your primary spending target, a 2600k would worth a lot more than the crossfire setup in an opportunity cost deal.

Depending on what he will be doing. If he's running GPU accelerated programs such as some Adobe CS programs, video editing or gaming then the extra graphics card will be a lot more beneficial than going to a 2600 from a 2500.
