Aaaand seems like it doesn't need a fan :toast:

Played some games etc. and not even near at throttling temps.

Could always use some tape to makeshift a duct to the case fan too

True, but I have a windowed case so it would look ugly.

Actually, you could use card stock, make it with proper folds and holes and you could even print some kind of graphics on it. It you are more talented and have the right tools, you could make something out of plexi or some thin sheet metal and paint it.

Pretty damn good idea, but unfortunately I don't have tools to do that. I can just imagine how cool that would look!

edit: I've always liked the looks of reference cards and their coolers, tho those coolers should have better performance and less noise..

Well i had it with the issues from the gigabyte mobo so....

moar LED's

Time to see if i can get a stable 4.7GHz @1.25~1.3V

Made a temporary downgrade for GPU, got this baby free! So I'm selling my R9 290 away since I'll get a cheap GTX970 soon from my friend. :toast:

7750, not a 7770. Doesn't ruin my life to run games temporary with lower settings. :toast:

I think he meant that since I had R9 290.

Hm, max temps 70C with 900MHz core when played CS:GO and this stops the fan in idle. I kinda like this little puppy! :toast:

This card exactly: http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/all-previous-gpus/amd-radeon-hd-7750-core-edition-fx-775a-cgfv

I don't complain even it has slow DDR3 instead of GDDR5, since I got it free.

no more compromises

the panels are really thick and heavy :oops:

Beautiful build! I am planning to switch my 750D for that case in the near future. What pump are you running and where is it located?

JATownes · Jul 22, 2016

I've always been an AMD guy...ever since the old Am486 days (yes, I'm that old). I've literally never owned an Intel CPU...until today. I just couldn't wait for Zen any longer...I''ll switch back if Zen is competitive, but I'm about to begin a new overclocking adventure with Intel. New waterblock arrives tomorrow, and I'll start tearing down my rig to switch to the Blue team for a while.

Wish me luck!

I feel like a traitor a little, and I am having to spend a lot of time learning about overclocking an Intel CPU, which is surprisingly different, which I did not realize. I'll have a few (re)build pics incoming in the next couple of days.

OCN has some nice overclocking guides, welcome to the blue team.

I'm learning it is all basically the same, Intel just has different names for certain settings/functions that makes it seem complicated to a previously exclusive AMD user. Overclocking the cache seems really interesting, and I am anxious to toy around with a fundamentally different architecture.

What chip we talking about. overclocking for haswell is very different compared to Sandy/Ivy and now Skylake. Way more voltage settings to deal with and tweak.

EDIT: Ah 6700k. Shouldn't be too hard. I think Skylake is easier than Haswell now that it doesnt have the iVR anymore.

Now I know who to PM when I hit a wall and have questions about voltage.

Edit: Apparently my building will have to wait until Monday. Waterblock got delayed in transit. So much for paying extra shipping to get it by the weekend.

Sorry for the double post, but just wanted to send a little praise to UPS. :clap:

Placed a call to the sort facility it was at, told them why it was critical (to me) it be delivered today. The guy was a member of the PC Master Race and started asking about my build, and assured me it would be delivered today. Shortly thereafter I got this:

THANKS GUY IN THE BIG BROWN TRUCK! You saved my weekend! :toast:

Last pic of the FX9370 and 990fx Sabertooth before they get demoted to my wife's rig.

I've had this board for 5 years next month. Revision 1.01...started out with a Phenom II in it, then the 9370.
