Holy shit..... nice rig.

[Korny]

very nice

i don't have and internal dvd drive, i have to many disks not enough space

I've been waiting for the 12 core intels to be released before i retire my I7 920.... mind you the 2600 was very very tempting to me.....

mm similar to mine just I have 2 raptors in raid 0 for steam and two 590gtx's for smashing cunts plus I went the ASUS P8P67 WS Revolution as it has that nifty nf200 thingo that is cool for graphics cards or something and dominator GT ram cause it has a fan for them... as if you don't need a fan for your ram!

[Korny]

lol, you don't need a fan for your ram hahaha, i had a corsair one on my ram and it seemed pointless as my silverstone case has a very good cooling system

[Jay]

Instead of RAM bling I went and got a NH-D14. Shit be massive. So yeah it'd be well worth it for crazy to grab a decent CPU cooler at some point.

[feary]

I went the h70 for water cooling...

I went the h70 for water cooling...

H70 is hardly water cooling.

It's a decent cooler though which does well to separate heat away from other components but with decent case airflow these days it's pretty redundant. It does about as well as a decent air cooler. The fans on it are pretty rubbish and per-dollar higher end air coolers are better value.

RAM doesn't really need cooling beyond a decent thermalspreader for basic OC'ing unless you're planning to up the volts on your ram but that sort of OC'ing you'd be looking at a real water cooling kit anyway.

A swifty kit is what I would call water-cooling, and better value for your dollar but it's hardly cheap or easy to setup. H50/H70, great marketing.
