Your PC ATM

[GreiverBlade]

My pc atm. I dunno if i will keep the r9 290's sell them an get another 780 or whaaat.

selling 2 290 and getting 1 780? eh? a single 290 is on par with a 780, the only way to be profitable would be selling 2 290 and getting 2 780 or 1 780Ti or wait till the next gen.

nice rig btw

agreed, if your gonna sell the two R9s i'd get a single more powerful 780ti, if possible (i know nVidia can be more expensive) and possible the 6GB model

A single 780 Ti would be a downgrade

you didn't specify it in the original post, also if you go 2 780 for 2 290 it's a side-grade, CFX has less and less issue and frame pacing isn't a good enough argument anymore for switching, plus the 780 is marginally slower than the 290
sell your 780 and use the money for something else (IE: like a WC loop for the GPU's) or wait the new gen then sell your 780 + your 2 290.

testing the Vendeta 2 ... well ... not bad not bad, and huhu retro cable management in a NZXT Nemesis

hello in there, this could be called my workstation.

















yeah, i know the second card has no power connecter plugged in.

finally got my i7-4790k clocked to the 4.5Ghz/1.230V with stable max 85 degrees when under full load. i guess, i bought bad chip with even worse silicon on it. when i push to the 4.6ghz, it gots cooked up pretty fast when running through prime95 for about 25minutes with approx. 95+ degrees. its getting weird when you realise you got quality water cooling on it. any advices with similiar setup appreciated!

 

[Jetster]

What do you mean "Quality water cooling" I have the 4790K with a H100 and can do 4.6 1.3v and its not anywhere close to that temp. I fairly sure it was under 70c on Prime95. Ill double check later. Check your mounting

mine is getting 70c as well for most of the time, but there is some kind of loop of the stresstest, when it comes to the edge and pushes all the power out. for a while, and it gets 90 and above. then it downgrades to more appropriate temperatures.

i will take a look inside and reattach the cooler from beginning, but i bet i have done anything right. thermal grease is painted all correctly. i will be really thankful if you rerun the prime and share with your sight.
cheers.

Painted? I just use a grain of rice of AS5 in the middle and tighten it up.

Just moved and most things are still in piles, that includes most of my PC's. So a rare look at all of them in 1 photo. The grey boxes are old machines which I'm planning to do something with at some point.

The 2 black PC's are installed and usable. It's a surprisingly comfortable use experience, as long as I don't have to use the mouse much. And Steam in-home streaming works even if the computers are directly connected.

Also installed some filters on my Shoebox PC.

Looks snazzy, don't they?

I've used a few chips and they all do this, before a pass finishes temps fluctuate

InWin Diva is definitely more female friendly than the Elite 120 you were talking before lol.

Air 540 isn't quite as nice as 440 IMO but if you got 50% discount thats awesome.

The Air 540 is great, it rewards laziness. No need for neat cable management in that. My PSU chamber looks like, well, you don't want to know. Awesome that you got 50% off, I do think they are a little overpriced to begin with if I'm honest.

Hmm well it has been a while since I have posted my pc(s) in this thread. So I have sold off my old Asus G53 and my LanBox (the orange box) and bought a Gigabyte P34G V2 gaming laptop with the money I received from the G53 and lanbox (<- I'll be making a video review of this in about a month's time). I bought the 256GB SSD and 8GB RAM version. I installed my 1TB SSHD drive I had taken out of my old G53 and also bought and extra 8GB RAM while I was at the shop (I know 16GB is overkill but hey they let me have it for half price because of buying the laptop).

Comparison of the thinness with my TAICHI31 I use for uni;

I received a store credit for a broken Asus R9 280X graphics which I then used to buy my new screen, BenQ GW2765HT. I only had to be $80 out of pocket for the screen (wicked special intro price of $489AUD here)!

I also wall mounted ye olde FP241W (tis still an amazing monitor though, 500cd/m^2 :O )

Also I moved the 128GB Agility 4 SSD into my main desktop for installing more games that I would like to have quick loading times. I also taped up the holes underneath the 2 3.5" drives to try to limit the noise that came out of it, which has worked to some success but you can still hear the drives sometimes. I also have the front ceiling fan as an intake now as an experiment for temps.

The Agility 4 is in that cage you can half see behind the rats nest of cables

The red and black thing? That's a Buttkicker. To better feel the low frequency sound.
