Forums - PC - Lucidium's new build

Built myself a purely-gaming specific rig, here's the spec.

Motherboard: Asus Rampage IV Extreme (X79 LGA2011)
CPU: Intel i7 3970X
Ram: 32GB Corsair Dominator Pro
Cooling: Caorsair H100i
GPU: 2x Gainward GTX 780ti Phantom (16x3.0)
HDD/SDD: 1x Mushkin Chronos Deluxe 240gb (OS), 5x 2tb Mechanical
PSU: Antec HCP-1000 Platinum
Monitor: 2x Dell Ultrasharp u2711 (only using one at the moment though, in the middle of moving house)

Will post pictures once I'm done updating drivers/installing software.

I'm curious what did you pay for everything excluding the monitors? yes i'm a lazy sob and could go look for prices myself:D

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Nothing, I put it all on my employers tab.



Wonder how that rig will run without a CPU ;)

Are you putting the hardware on your desk or is there a case to it?

Case is irrelivant to overall specifications, I've never listed them when detailing builds, never seen the point.

The cooling concept begs to differ. With an inblowing radiator it would be interesting to see which case you chose to make it work.

I also assume noise is not an issue for you.

Added pictures to OP.

And it's an InWin GROne, just a temporary case till I finish moving and can modify a flight case for the new components, chosen purely because it's the only one I could find available at the time that had the space for the H100i.

When i port the parts over to the flight case, the GPU's will be on liquid rather than their stock coolers.



*looks at rig* Noice, wish I had that kind of money to burn

*looks at profile pic* And a man with taste!
