I like the badges. Its just the evga one thats wonky.

I'm a sucker for badges as well. Always stick them on my cases. Plus, crucially, I actually think they dramatically increase re-sale value amongst the general market. :cool:

Water cooling is the one thing I've never looked into. Always tempted though. Have had a few self contained water coolers but never a proper setup. Great looking build though. I'm a sucker for vanity when it comes to my PC's.

A few pics of everything installed and up and running.
And my new side panel finally arrived from NZXT, only took a month!

in this picture i have quoted on the left fitting there, it looks like you have screwed it in on the wrong thread. that is why the compression cap it is slightly sideways to the fitting itself. you might want to fix that before it leaks.

no prob man, i would hate to see a post in a few days saying that it leaked and bust something on you.

I agree bout quoting the pictures. Bad enough on large monitors, but can't imagine the torment people face on 1080p and worse still, 720p monitors

chewythefirst

true that TerrorFirmer+Danger781, there is no need to quote all the pics and also no need for the useless post abusing that guy for saying it is annoying.

TerrorFirmer

It does remind me however, begrudgingly, how ****ing sweet that water cooled setup is.

Using a phone, trying to edit out other pics was wayyyyyy too much hassle. Plus I'm kinda selfish about other people's wanky eyes and feelings and emotions. I'll never make it in America.

I know I could have responded more maturely, and kindly request that he edits the post so he does not quote all of the photos as it a a major inconvenience to the users of this thread.

But where's the fun in that? I prefer my way

Major inconvenience? Wow get a load of the real first world problems.

I didn't "abuse" him for finding it annoying, I "abused" him for caps locking. Either way edit post call the ss, I'm already awake so not losing sleep.

It's an inconvenience to scroll past that many pictures when there is no need for it. It's not going to ruin my day or anything, but a small bit of consideration for others goes a long way

Anyway, I'll leave it there. We're going off topic now.

no one abused anyone. we just pointed out that it's a little annoying when someone quotes a series of high resolution/bandwidth pictures to make a comment. Hardly criminal.

if we used 'first world problems' as a criteria surely the irony of this very forum hardly needs to be pointed out.

See I never claimed anyone was abused? Hence why I typed "abused" like so. I was accused of "abusing" danger after his ahem capslock malfunction.

But that is neither here or there. In my naivety I was quite simply not aware when quoting the comment ,of the horrendous backlash from the forum minions.
It was as If I had sacrificed someone's first born. But I see now it is an arduous task to scroll a web page. Did I go 88 mph? is it the internet in 1995?

Forget Jesus carrying that heavy cross getting whipped and tortured , Mel Gibson should do the passion of boards "thou shalt not quote pics". I will Cleary be playing the part of the devil himself. Pure evil reincarnated.

edited original post.. I have exercised the demons ... This tread is clear....

I havnt really tried pushing much as the new mobo should be here late next week.I just have this one at 4.2...
I did jump the 7970`s to 1.3 v and ran them @1140/1700 and was on bf4 for an hour and the max temp for the cards was 45c and cpu was 50c...temp in the sitting room is 24c so not so bad for 2 rads me thinks..

That a fair bit of volts for that oc on the gpus but as you know some cards will need a bit more juice than others.I would have said for the 1140mhz on the core you should be fine at 1.25v i(one of my profiles i use 1.23v for 1180mhz).Even with bad Oc'ers i'd say you could lower it a fair bit.

Temps look bang on and good considering the 24c ambient.
What speeds did you run your fans at when you played bf4 last night?

The 1.3v was just to see how warm things could get..
My 24/7 clock is 1140 /1600 @ 1.2v...I get 60fps for bf4 on ultra settings(2560x1440)Vsync on.
Thats all I need.

The fans are controlled by a bit fenix fan controller...Set at the lowest setting..Well just a tad from the lowest..
Cant ever hear em..

Awesome... no harm in having the voltage at 1.3 if you can cool it, especially under water. See how high you can get with 1.3v

Leave the memory alone for now and just play with the core so if you do crash you now what caused it.
