gerrynicol · Mar 7, 2009

Ok, so I just ordered the following:
Intel Core i7-920
Asus P6T Deluxe
6GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-10666
and a Coolermaster HAF 932

I will get some pics when I get the stuff in.

Should be good along with the X2 gtx 285s

DrPepper · Mar 7, 2009

You lucky shit

I've got an i7 build coming up for a friend. How much did all that cost you ?

gerrynicol · Mar 7, 2009

LOL, it was a fair chunk, it was around £700 all in( shipping as well)
Hop it performs as good as I hope

HolyCow02 · Mar 7, 2009

cool! hope you like it. pics and benchies when it's all done!

Polarman · Mar 7, 2009

You should do a comparison result between your older rig and the new one.

CDdude55 · Mar 7, 2009

Dice · Mar 10, 2009

So jealous.

Dice · Mar 10, 2009

I wouldn't even bother building it yet, id pile it up on the floor and sleep on it!

gerrynicol · Mar 10, 2009

Lol with the size of the HAF, I reckon I could get a double bed in there

HolyCow02 · Mar 10, 2009

im very very jealous. I want my new machine now!

Jakl · Mar 10, 2009

I hope you enjoy your new system and overclocking experience if you plan on doing so...

Methious · Mar 10, 2009

Should be a pretty beefy build, I use the P6T Deluxe Palm OC Edition and it's pretty rockin. Best memory handling board out there IMO, I've been through MSI, and Giga boards on X58 and the P6T is the only one that every kit of ram I've tried was Plug and Play.

Ocing I got 4.4 on the 965, and it drives my 285's pretty darn good.

It's a little light for my 295's but I don't think there's anything out there that is capable of driving them without bottlenecking.

If you use it make sure you update to the latest Palm OC software cause the original usually causes a system hang.

gerrynicol · Mar 10, 2009

Kewl, i started doing some benchies, tried fear 2 but its not really taxing my system (current)
With a low of 70 a high of 250 and av of ~130. I will get some different games together
And hopefully get started on the build on either friday or saterday.

Rich Bastards!!! I killl you !! :laugh:

gerrynicol · Mar 13, 2009

Finished the first part of the build, just need to strip this pc of it's HDDs, power supply(corsair 1Kw) and gfx cards(X2 gtx 285s) get them installed and then i'm good to go.

It's a standard ATX board, just the case is freakin huge lol, I didn't think it was going to be that big :roll:

. I will get the rest sorted out tomorrow and get the rest of the pics up after that.

Cheers for the comments guys.

If any1 has any comments to help the build at this stage please feel free to post :toast:

ste2425 · Mar 13, 2009
