That's still a card that's at LEAST three times as fast as my 8500GT :laugh:
It's pretty bad when my low-power PhysX card is faster than your main GPU... in an SR2 rig nonetheless. I use a 9500GT to drive my 1280x1024 monitor that's used for monitoring software and PhysX, exclusively.
Placeholder card aside, I'm literally drooling over that SR2 setup you have. Always wanted an SR2, and you even have the CPUs I'd pair it with. Lucky bastage.

Yeah, I am AMAZED that I was able to get it. Never would have spent the $600 that EVGA charges for it normally. And I wouldn't have gone for X5690s, normally, given that I'm not goinf ro extreme overclocking, and even the X5650s will do 4GHz w/o much difficulty.
Currently it's a 4.2Ghz @ 1.28V, which I'm really happy with. Temps are still great, so I'm considering trying to push it a little bit higher. For sub-$600 for the whole setup, I'm way, way happy with it.

Although, the laptop HDD isn't so nice. Really, I should put in a SSD or at least one of the VelociRaptors :)

please ... get back to your sense ... a 660 is plenty bang for bucks when compared to a Titan"overpriced&useless"X (not when compared to a 290... i mean com'on ... almost 10 time cheaper and only 36% slower )

so then back to the topic... not enough pics ... and pc atm

my PC atm ... oh wait not a PC (shoot i was trying to get back on topic) well it runs Windows CE... ok it use a Hitachi SH-4 cpu and a PowerVR2 graphic adapter and could also be used for something else than gaming... ok ok not really a PC :p

so guys I'm thinking of some solutions to get get rid of the blue of my psu to match my system better without getting a whole new psu, id rather not buy anymore hardware till I build a whole new system in a few years once in done with school.

how does this sound?: Carbon fiber 3m ni-doc vinyl, and cover the hx850 sticker, the entire top of the psu, then use what's left to wrap the sides of my radiators in it. Been wanting to put some carbon fiber in my sustem for a while not but wanted to be subtle with it and now use it all over like most rigs you see.

How do you like the case? Are the drives/fans/internals all easy to work with? I've been eyeing the black/blue one as my build is mostly black/blue.

Makes me jelly. I like to do a custom water loop at some point but, i honestly dont need to. Since my h100i keeps my 4690k cooled with the 4.4 oc np.

And once you taste custom liquid-cooling and your trip is ok ... you get "addicted" to it and not wanting to go back to air-cooling ever :laugh:

At least for me, the hobby became addiction really fast ... and since 2008 I never air-cooled a computer unless it was for "testing" purposes. Oh man, how I love the "fill" moment in all my loops, it's like having a good high w/o any kind of drugs :D

Before, could set the GPU fan at 30% and leave it there.



After, the GPU reached 101 C when playing Crusader Kings 2 (64% GPU load max).



Dang. :( I might look into downclocking it, I'm not going back to the integrated sound.

EDIT: And the P8H67-M I've got as a upgrade path (hopefully) has the same layout. Blergh.

Drop a fan blowing from the end of the GPU out of the case, where your bunch of cables are.

That case does not have any venting on the side, correct? The only reason I could think for the rise in temp would have to be due to the rear slots/vents being blocked by the sound card, forcing the air to become dead in front of the fan (or having the hot air from the vid card recirculated). Maybe a fan over the GPU might help.
