Nobody lol

 

[harmony gardens]

Mine is in a Fed Ex truck,,, lol.

I'll play the case is kind of crappy because I spent to much money on cooling block and it's stashed behind my LCD TV so I don't really care about the outside of it

I have an xbox and a PS3 too

 

[dysfoundation]

Is that a fan controller or liquid cooling?

 

[kabonk]

liquid it's running PG through it I have cooling blocks on the CPU, both video cards, northbridge and the southbridge
i7 960
2x 295gtx
12GB DD3

it's almost time for new video cards but these older ones can still run new games at high details so I've been putting it off because I would have to buy new cooling block for the new video cards

 

[dysfoundation]

Ooo I likewise the setup, why so much ram though lol?
I'm tempted on pulling the trigger on a zotac 550ti but $116 is out of my budget atm... how much was your overall liquid unit?

 

[kabonk]

I got a good price on ram at newegg matching set of corsair couldn't pass it up
it was 200 buck for the koolance and around 90 dollars each for the video cooling blocks and 45 ish each for the smaller cooling block but its really quiet and it will last for years I had my last koolance for about 7 years before I replaced it and just replaced cooling blocks as I moved it from PC to PC when I rebuilt it just got to the point where it couldn't handle the power/heat of a new pc

 

[dysfoundation]

That's pretty awesome, I've been thinking about liquid cooling but my case moves tons of air and upgrading the CPU cooler is cheaper haha

 

[kabonk]

yeah it's expensive it really is a hobby thing

 

[dysfoundation]

Indeed lol, I think I'm gonna save up for the November release on games and upgrade then

 

[kabonk]

some games I'd just rather play on a PC I'm look forward to bioshock infinite

 

[dysfoundation]

Yes!! Me and my roommate are huge fans of bioshock. He got me into playing the first one and honestly I love the fact you can be completely brutal in your playing style. Do you play black ops on steam?? I do mainly for the custom zombie servers people made. That and I built my rig for bf3 but never got to actually buy bf3 because I didn't know it wasn't compatible with steam :-\...partially why I'm excited for all these game releases coming out!

That and it gives me reason to upgrade stuff

 

[chad]

Here's mine:

Intel Core i7 Quad-core 3.4GHz OC to 4.0GHz, 16GB Corsair matched RAM, Liquid Cooled, Gigabyte Z68XP-UD5 MoBo, Dual Radeon HD 6970 2 GB Video Cards, Intel Smart Response 20GB SSD caching with 2 Seagate 500GB HDs, CoolerMaster HAF Mid-Tower, NZXT Fan Controller, LiteOn DVD, Win7 Home, etc, etc... ~$2k built from scratch. Display is Apple 27" LED. Controller is XBox Wireless. Keyboard is Apple low-profile extended. Games come through Steam and GameStop App.

Recently, I've gotten stuck playing FFXIV for a while and I've played Deus Ex: Human Revolution like three times through.

I also have an original PS3 (played moderately) and a Wii (played rarely).

Another smilodon case user! I had the blue/silver version though.
Btw I like the looks of that fan controller but I always run mine at 100% so never needed one. How are those HD 6000s?

 

[MASTER0FDAMPF]

I will try to take a pic once I get the new video cards are put in. 550 TI's are crap. Go with a 560 standard or OC'ed if you can instead. They are about the same price. I am about to pull the trigger on 2 560 ti's to replace my 9800GTX+'s Trying to pin down the best deal on some Asus GTX 560 Ti TOP/DCII 's.
Running in sli I should have no problem maxing out diablo III

NZXT Lexa Blackline (Piano black with Red)
1000 watt OCZ SLI edition PSU
8 GB OCZ Sli edition ram
2.8 quad (Q9550)
2X sata 3g 1gb in striped.

A couple of red cold cathodes that stay off but turned on via a switch on a PCI cover. Mostly used for service lights, or for showing off.

Proc, board and ram could be better....but I don't really need them to be.
If they would just build ssd's to last I wouldn't mind, but the 1.5 year expected life just sucks.

Haven't moved to liquid cooling. The sealed systems look nice, but piecing them in would cost more than I could justify. Too many other hobbies
