I stopped reading when I realized I wasn't going to get free stuff...
surprisingly u made it in to the thread
Because I thought this was a give-away contest and I could win free computer stuff.
But thanks to 4ball I now know that it's not worth it since it's not an i7 or whatever the shit he stopped reading at.
Finally got my Phantom and switched my system over. Pics say more than a thousand words, so here's 15000 words for you:
Spoiler:
A few real words:
- #12 are the header plugs MSI shipped with my motherboard, they're fucking brilliant. No more fucking around getting them onto the motherboard, just plug em onto these and job done.
- #15 shows the one thing I'm really not happy about: the 8-pin CPU power. The cable is too short to route it across the backplate unfortunately, wish Seasonic had made that a bit longer
Also not too happy with where I have to put my X-Fi, I might just stick it in the secondary PCI-E x16 slot, it's not as if I'll notice my videocard running at x8 instead of x16 :E
Just a recap of the hardware:
- i5-760 + Thermaltake Frio (which fits with the case rather well I might add )
- MSI P55-GD65
- 2x2GB OCZ DDR3-1333 Low Voltage
- Gigabyte GTX 460-1024 OC
- Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB + WD Caviar 320GB
- Seasonic X-650
I'll post some "in-action" pics later :}
The fans are barely audible, even at full speed; all NZXT fans except the front one, that's a Noiseblocker PK3, so I'm quite happy with this thing. Finally time to push my i5 to 4.2 GHz
Ignore the timestamps btw, had to go out to fetch some stuff for dinner, as well as make some calls in between.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
