TheMailMan's System

TheMailMan78 · Jan 12, 2009

Ok I finally got my parts in today for my new build. Iv replaced every part of a computer before however this is my first build from the ground up. So I want some input from the TPU community as to what I should name my system. Here are the specs.

Case: Ultra m998
PSU: Corsair 750
Mobo: MSI DKA790GX "Platinum"
CPU: AMD 8650
Cooling: Thermaltake "V1"
RAM: 4 gigs Patriot "Viper" 8500
GPU: Visiontek ATI 4850

Now I'v included a few names in the poll which I kinda liked but I'm open to suggestions. Also what do you guys think of my system thus far?

I like it. I just don't think its worthy of the title. After all it only has a 8650.

J-Man · Jan 12, 2009

How about watercooling? :cool:

kenkickr · Jan 12, 2009

How about the Paraplegic Dragon, since it only has 3 cores on the proc and 1 4000 series graphics card.

Its not a Dragon. It has a Phenom one. Its more of a Spider with Dragon wings.

"E-Mail" would be sufficient to describe the functionality of the system

I think it's a little more powerful than just an e-mail system. Its for gaming. Not benchmarks.

Hence the smiley

But seriously, being creative?

"Special Delivery"
"Expressmail"
"UPS" (Ultimate Postal System)

hmm I guess I could go on like that

Ahhzz · Jan 12, 2009

The PO Box.

TheMailMan78 · Jan 12, 2009

Damn nobody liked "The Mail Sack" but systemviper. Odd I thought for sure that would have won. I mean "Male Sack" :laugh:

Exavier · Jan 12, 2009

why 790GX and not FX?

Darknova · Jan 12, 2009

The Mail Sack! hahah

How come you get the 8650 and not an 8750BE?

Gam'ster · Jan 12, 2009

Advanced Mail Delivery

But congratz on the new parts enjoy man..

Ahhzz · Jan 12, 2009

oi...yet again, throw out your nfo, and everyone has an opinion on why you shouldn't have gotten xxx card/proc/mobo, and why you're wasting money on it, and should have spent it on yyy card/proc/mobo....

MRCL · Jan 12, 2009

How about... "The Heffernan" (yknow, King of Queens)

The FX SB is slower.

Darknova said:

Simply because I plan on getting a PII in a few months. Didn't want to spend to much money now. FYI I got everything I listed for 450 bucks. Someone I work with also works at Tiger Direct here in Miami.
