Seriously though, nice PC.

Endurance Man

omg, you must have a HUGE PENIS

I was getting the same vibe
Tis a beauty though!

rsynnott

Honestly, this sort of thing must keep the whole bloody economy afloat; tho if you need to do the showoffy thing, I suppose an over-the-top computer is a better way to do it than an SUV or somesuch...

Hagar

Shoulda went to Specsavers

Sparky

man i wish i had some money to spend

/me starts saving

DemonOfTheFall

Nice, but could be better done.

I'm not feeling the PSU, 80mm fans, 4000+, I-trigue speakers, or Gigabyte motherboard. Other than that very nice (and pricey )

Loobz

omg, you must have a HUGE PENIS

hehe
Nice setup.

First thing I thought was compensation

Has he gone into hiding now?

djmarkus

I think he dreamt that one up!

Hewlet Packard monitor cooler

What the hell is a monitor cooler. Never heard of cooling your monitor, can u watercool them to

CSSource God

Do you wana post a 3dmark 05 score or something?? See what the 7800 develops? Im gettin 6400 at the moment!

djmarkus

Maybe his computer assassinated him.

CSSource God

Richard can you do a compare with my system in 3d mark? This is stock settings(no overclocking). Im not doubting you but i want to see what the 7800 is like http://service.futuremark.com/servlet/Index?pageid=/orb/projectdetails&projectType=12&projectId=1009128

WizZard

Project ID isn't valid!

CSSource God

Someone said that before! Whats the problem Wizzard am i doing something wrong??

WizZard

Yes, you are copying the link in the address bar instead of the one that the ORB provides when a project is published. Your link should be http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1009128

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1009128
The bold bit is the project id which is the only thing that should change

Richard Dower

My PC is legit...i've shown pics of my rig and folks have seen my rig. As for "compensating"....folks always say that stuff. It's like you have to be dysfunctional or have a small dick.

You can't just be a PC geek and have a hobby you enjoy...no, must be a loser. I'll do some benchies later when i am confident of my tweaks.

WizZard

Don't sweat it Richard, it looks very cocky to post "Look what I have" without any other reason other than to show off.
You're just getting good natured ribbing



(So it's not true about the compensating then...?)

I am showing off!!!!...why the hell not?
Put alot of time and money into this, damn right i'm waving my penis around.

CSSource God

Sorry Richard, we dont mean to annoy you mate! Some people can be begrudging, we are genuinely interested in the 7800 coz not many have it yet. I know there are reviews online but its nice to see how a fellow boards member finds them Nice Rig by the way!

Richard Dower

The XFX is in the mail...due end of week. Just updating my specs to reflect this. I'll be selling my 6800GT PCI-E then and invest that money into Dual Core. I hear a 4400+ DC can go 240x11 no problem = 2.64GHz at stock voltage. I'd be well pleased with this.

Ooh...and i got the free XFX gamepad with the card is well, they retail for $40 in the US, all round great bargin. And when the XFX Extreme Edition drops the bios will be posted online and i'll flash. So i'll have 490/1300!!!!
