Hi guys just wanted to post a pic of my newly built rig. Love it so much. I havent had much issues like other AMD users. Never get BSOD's. Only issue i have at the moment is the crossfire and vsync audio crackling. But hopefully that will get resolved in next driver update. So i turned off vsync anway. Other then that, all my games look great, BF4, WoW, Tomb Raider etc.. Next project will be watercooling. I wanna do a loop for my CPU and 2 GPUS. Advice and recommendations, suggestions and ideas on products appreciated please. Current Specs: CASE: Corsair 800D Obsidian PSU: Corsair AX-1200i Motherboard: ASUS Maximus Formula VI CPU: Intel Core i7 4770K Cooler: Corsair H100i GPU: ATI Radeon R9 290X Crossfire (ASUS) RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 2133mhz 16GB RAM. (2x 8GB) SSD: Samsung 500GB Evo series HDD: 3TB Seagate 7200 HDD DVD/BD: LG Blu Ray burner FANS: All Corsair AF200 HP FANS. (9x FANS) full link http://www.freeimagehosting.net/newuploads/x6mmq.jpg
not yet. i do want a soundcard when i do the watercooling setup. also gonna add another 16gb ram, another ssd and hdd as well.
im using a crappy monitor at the moment. any suggestions on monitors i can get? edit: full link for full picture here.. full link http://www.freeimagehosting.net/newuploads/x6mmq.jpg
Just wondering, do you use cat 14.1 and have no issue's with direct X 9-, 10- and 11-games and do you run win 8.1? Nice rig
You should look into some 21:9/2560x1080 monitors, or 120hz/144hz if you don't care alot for accurate colors. Otherwise Asus is coming with a 1440p monitor with 120hz.
hey yeah i was using 14.1 drivers. i switched back to the 13.2 WHQL drivers. they work fine. jus the vsync audio xfire issue. but other than that they are fine. im using windows 7 64 pro.
Sure, here's one just before I went water cooling......as you can see, I'm somewhat of an ROG fanboy.:nerd: After I went water cooling... Another shot showing the reservoir.. Next up, changing the H100 for my CPU to an open loop, already gotten an Aquacomputer Cuplex XT LGA2011 nickel block, going to decide on what rad and pump to use..... Edit: Oh yeah, the parts for my dual R9 290X water cooling: 10x EK ID 7/16" OD 5/8" compression fittings 2x 90 degree connectors 1x EK Reservoir X3 150 2x EK FC R9 290X Nickel water blocks 2x EK FC 290X backplate 3x 120mm Corsair SP fans XSPC RX360 Triple fan Rad EK DCP 4.0 pump EK tubing ID 7/16" OD 5/8" XSPC EC6 Koolant Red
damn that is sexy as.. what case is that? i might have to modify my case to get the radiator at the bottom like that.. i was thinking of just doing a loop for the 2 GPU's like that and keeping the H100 as well. Thanks for the info on the WC setup.. i like your fittings its very nice..
ive just added a razer blackwidow stealth edition with a razer naga mmo 2014. and using razer tiamat 7.1 headphones
Not all cases has space for a 360 rad below like that, the original case I had certainly did not (Thermaltake Level 10GT). But I managed to snag a Caselabs Magnum M8 and it's got tons of space......one side houses what you see (mobo/GPU/ODD's) while the other side houses the PSU/HDD's and even two 360 rads on top and below should I choose to go that route. Caselabs make amazing cases....
