    damned false advertising!

    although... I'm not even sure what you'd do with 6 TB of ram... you could run a supercomputer with that shit

    Was doing this for fun to see how far my computer has depreciated in terms of technology in the few months since I've built it.

    $900 budget pre graphics card (Factoring in Shipping Costs):

    Case: Coolermaster Storm Scout $60
    Mobo: Asus P8P67 $150
    Processor: Core i7- 2600K $310
    Memory: Kingston Hyper-X 6GB $81
    Hard Drive: 500gb Momentus XT $110
    PSU: OCZ ModXtreme Pro 600Watt $65
    Cooling: Corsair H60 $71

    Subtotal: $847

    Shipping: ~ $50

    Total Cost: $897


    Maybe I should have waited a few months and built an intel computer instead of my AMD... It's now around the same price, and that processor has about twice the performance of my 1090T at a 5ghz overclock.

    ah well <_<
     
  7. 5ghz OC .... lmfao... will the h60 be able to cool it?

    You can overclock it to 5ghz on the stock intel cooler, but it's not recommended for long-term.

    The h60 would definitely be able to handle it.

    The 2600K is nuts...
     
  10. on the stock? that shit would be like 200 deg cel

    Wow, one of the cleanest Watercooling systems I ever saw.
     
  14. I could never have the ambition to do something like that for some reason.... maybe its the cost factor lol

    Makes me want to build a similar desk/case. Would have enough space to add a huge fan for some good air circulation.
