In the void? Terrible move.
Ask a mod to change it ASAP.

Wouldn't it make more sense and avoid trolling and everything else if you created it in the correct section?

Got my pc around 6 months ago tho..
I hate you.

Just make sure those RAM heatsinks won't be blocked by the CPU heatsink. That's why I chose Low Profile sticks. Besides, RAM heatsinks barely make a difference anyway as long as there's the slightest air-stream passing by.

Why would you upgrade now? Wait till November or whenever the new consoles come out, the prices of hardware will inevitably drop. I'm still sporting a 460 1 gb and an i5 2.66, 99% games working on high/very high.

yeah, gonna wait another 10 months ... hm not ?
And toni, thanks for your useless comments, as usual.
And couleur, if you had read the first sentence in the first post ...
Oh you couldn't believe how little i actually care rofl...
For the 3750k, i'll overclock it to normal speeds, obviously (basicly changing the multiplier rofl). Maybe a bit more (fsb+multi). The not so much into OC'ing was more for the gpu, not the cpu.

I thought Ivy Bridge was similar to Sandy, ie. you don't touch the FSB/BCLK these days, you either get a K-version of the CPU and change the multiplier or get a non-K version and accept the max turbo frequency.

Why not get 2 660tis instead? They cost as much as a single 680 but give 30-50% more performance. Or did I misread and you are going to get another 680 later?

What makes you think I hadn't read it? I dont know why your earlier thread got deleted.
Anyway, what is the purpose of this thread exactly? Do you want suggestions? Approval?
I have a very similar setup, except that I use a Fractal Define R4 case, and a Thermalright Macho HR-02 cooler, both of which are very silent, the Macho allowing for a nice OC to the CPU (4.5Ghz).
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

And what games are you going to play use this rig now? It's better to wait for some "next-gen" ports and see how they're actually ported.

Have you already ordered the GPU? Wait for the 2-slot card (same thing, only not that massive) for added aesthetics.

looks like a very solid setup, though the 7970 version is cheaper and a tad faster while having 3GB ram and leaves alot of room for overclocking

that 1200 case is a piece of garbage for what it costs.
Cheap as shit materials, that top fan goes kaput you're screwed on getting it out, took me an hour+ on my friends to get it out. Inside design is way behind in the times on top of the fact that it offers almost nothing for cable management, the space on the back of the MB tray and the door is almost nothing so you won't be routing many cables.
The NZXT Switch is only a little bit more and built HELL of a lot better and a lot more R&D was put into it. Hell even the Fractal cases are better and at a better price too.
Looking at the selection you have from the site you linked, 1200 would have been on the bottom of the list.
Cases that are better designed, better performance and better everything

I think 8GB will be small. Get at least 16GB.

So what made you change your mind about the GPU?
I thought from the prev topic that you decided to go 7970 because of price difference and games you get with them?
