That would be awesome... until the fist electricity bill came along

Seriously...
2 Xeons
6 Samsung 840 pro 256 in raid 0
2 x gtx 690
128 gb ram cas 9 2600
Corsair Obsidian 800D
water cooled with a huge loop, that actually warms the floor under my feet(underground passage) before it gets to the radiator.
3 Asus VG278H
Xonar Essence STX
Sennheiser hd 800

I would be a happy man

- mostly because I already am but still...

Well it is a dream computer

So obviously I was going to exaggerate a bit

HammerON · Nov 27, 2012, 08:14 AM

Still waiting for the next release from Intel. Hopefully with AMD's inability to compete at the "Enthusiast" level, Intel will still push the bar with "enthuisiast" CPU's...
A rig with a Haswell cpu might be a worthy upgrade.
At this point. My dream rig would be:
Intel i7 3930 K
ASRock X79 Extreme11
2 x EVGA GTX 690's w/ Hydro Copper Signature 4GB GPU's
Corsair Dominator Platinum 64GB RAM
CORSAIR AX1200i 1200W PSU
2 x Intel 320 Series 2.5" 600GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

your system wont create enough heat for floor heating
only 1nf3rn0x system is capable of doing that

Really? Distilled water running at 35ºC 3 inches beneath my feet wouldn't warm up the tiles? With his build I could warm the whole house

d6bmg · Nov 27, 2012, 09:11 AM

My dream rig would be very simple.
Just getting the best, fastest and most elite components from the market. :P

You do realise you are killing my dreams? The laws of thermodinamics shoulnd't matter in my dreams ... Thanks a lot

Well, I guess I will have to give up the notion, still think it would be pretty cool x)

Aquinus · Nov 27, 2012, 09:20 AM

I'm pretty happy with most of my system is now, to be honest. If I could indulge a bit I think I would this on top of what I already have:

Intel i7 3970x (replacing 3820)
64GB (8x8Gb) G.Skill DDR3 2400 (replacing 4x4Gb G.Skill DDR3-2133.)
2xMSI Lightning Radeon HD 7970 3GB (replacing 2x6870s.)
4xWD 2Tb RE4 (to replace 3x1Tb drives and add a 4th drive.)
1xLSI SATA6/SAS2 8-port RAID controller with BBU and 512Mb DDR2 cache.
ASUS Xonar Essence STX PCI-E 1x

I like dreaming, I just get discouraged when I come back to reality.

Also

@ radiant heat powered by your rig(s).

The one I just bought and am working on completing

Other things I'd like and will probably get:
7870 GPU
SSD

Ditch the radiator and put the tubes around the entire house. Add 3 more rigs to the loop and get some strong external pumps to keep everything flowing no matter what. Put on some benchmarks if you feel cold.

ASUS Xonar Essence STX PCI-E 1x I like dreaming, I just get discouraged when I come back to reality. Also @ radiant heat powered by your rig(s). __________________ MyHeat
