New PC

[NightHawk]

You may have noticed i've not been around for a few days. Been building up my new pc, yes another new one

This ones a little more badass.

Asus P5k Premium
QX9650
4GB OCZ Reaper X
Leadtek 8800GTS 512MB
Enermax Galaxy 1000W
Creative X-Fi Fata1ty FPS
Western Digital Raptor 74 GB
Seagate Barracuda 7200 500GB
Silverstone Temjin 10

Here's a few pics, but poor quality but you get the idea.









I also lapped my heatsink, here you can see how it looked before....quite bad...



Here's after i finished, 2 solid hours, blood sweat, maybe a tear of relief at the end hehe.



You can see the idle temps on the LCD screen pic, that's after being on for about an hour.

After first switching on the pc, here's the temps lol.



Everything is at stock at the moment. So plenty of room for overclocking. Just need to get to grips with this bios, theres a ton of options to tweak.

Looks Good Dude the question is how does it run ?

Well at the moment, in games it's a lot smoother, but in windows not that much different from my olc pc. I think once i crank it up to around 4GHz an OC the GPU a little, i'll be golden

Thanks! Yea, it was a bit of a bitch to put on, but it's not going anywhere now lol. Think i might change out that rear exhaust for a higher cfm, it's only 37.

I have that stuck to the top of inside of the case. I have all my fans connected to it so they run at 100% all the time. Plus, i can use the little 3 pin connectors instead of having to daisy chain molex connectors together
