Description
Had to mod the case a little bit to fit in the giant gtx 580 asus dcii.(that thing is huge) i also have cut a window into the side panel and hotglued an acrylic window onto it.(the parts look soo cool, it would be a shame not to show them off.)
Parts:
case: got it for free and it does the job, i have added a 82 mm fan in the front.
CPU: fx 6300 oced to 4.2 ghz
GPU: Asus dcii gtx 580 (extremely stylish looking card). if not overclocked extremely silent but still it kicks out a lot of heat. (bought it used , got a quite good price on it)
MOBO: Asus M5A97 R2.0 ATX AM3+. (gets the job done pretty well, i really like the software utilities from asus(Fan xpert, turbo v evo,epu,......)
Ram: single stick of 4 gb Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3-1600(yes not the 1333 version). some people might say that that 4 gb is insufficient . but for playing BF3 and metroLL it is fine.(i just do gaming on this pc)
Hdd: some seagate baracuda 250 gb hdd. is far away from an ssd in terms of speed, but i have reused it from another pc.( I am a quite patient person when it comes to game loading times)
PSU: thermaltake berlin 630w . gets the job done.
CPUCOOLER: in this price range(Got it for 25Euro (-30%), there are better air coolers, but i went for the esthetics of a watercooler(Looks sexy and stuff...).
monitor : an older one. samsung sync master 205bw. Not full 1080 p. just 1600x1050. but hey with this resuolution i can play everithing maxed out.
