Hardware - MY TURN!

[Calneon]

i7 build, my E6400 is starting to get old.




Along with these from my current PC:

GTX280 (not that make ofc)
Corsair HX 520W PSU
Hazro 24W Monitor

Probably going to order tomorrow, so i'll have it in time for i37.

EDIT: SHIT! I just looked at DE's thread and forgot about MicroDirect. Going to see if that's any cheaper.
EDIT of EDIT: Sod that, they're way overpriced.
EDIT EDIT EDIT: Godamn, that processor from Ebuyer isn't D0. Thought I was getting a bargain there.
EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT: Fuckit i'm getting it all from OcUK.

Wish I had free OcUK delivery.

I'll have free delivery in 2 days, pay me the cash and I'll order it and bring to i37 .


I think the i7 from MD is D0, just MD fail hard at giving products decent descriptions.




You basically copied the 4Ghz bundle from OCUK but are going to build it and OC it yourself? That's where the fun is to be had!

Yeah, but with the cheaper motherboard so it's gonna be even harder!

Trigger why aren't you on steam.

Gigabyte mobo's clock very well, so shouldn't be too hard.

200 x 20 = 4Ghz, put Turbo on and you hit 4.2Ghz when your CPU is at full load.
Just voltages that need tweaking, but I'm sure that can be figured out.

I'm sure DE can help you out xD

Everything going smoothly so far, the Noctua cooler took a while to put on but was a lot easier than most reviews suggested. It feels much sturdier than a standard fitting. Right now i'm waiting for my backup to finish so I can grab the GPU and PSU from this PC and use them in the new one. I have lots of pictures to post afterwards too!

Opinions on the HAF?

It's big, i'll tell you more when I start putting stuff in it. The only downside is no dust filters, but I knew that before I bought it.

Just finished building it, on my iPod at the moment. Full build log with many photos will come tomorrow after i install vista.
