Red&Black Spec Check

[Hyburnate]

Basically I want the build to be black and red, anyone know if I can get any components for Red&Black for around the same price, and will this be ok? Want to run GTA IV on it, thats about it apart from MW3 probably.

I need a Red or black CPU Cooler for a affordable price or a CPU Cooler and a fan

OcUK 6950 2GB (VTX).

Missed the Lancool DragonLord PC-K62 red interior Maybe you can find it somewhere else.

NzXT red. Bitfenix Colossus. Although tbh they are pretty garish. The Lancool is all right though.

that MOBO will look tiny in that case as its m-atx

Will take a look at them

*Edit: Took a look and I have threw up.

Well what motherboard would you suggest?

 

[Jony27]

none as at that price you can get a Gen3 board, a black/grey theme will be easier to do though

Might drop the Z68 and go for the Asrock Fatal1ty Intel P67 as I don't see how the Z68 Chipset will actually help me in any way.

Ask OcUK if they gonna stock them. IMO the best looking red case you'll ever find (Along with the FT02 red ).

-folds arms-
You ain't gunna change my mind about the 650D. If I see something I like nobody changes my mind. xD

 

[olivier renault]

You sure? sure sure?

OK It's a good case anyway.

I'm sure, you know what Evoss did? I'm nabbing his idea, but red and black, the red back is wayyy too much.

CPU Fan anyone?

But the RAM has those tall heatsinks, so a closed loop water cooler will be a guaranteed fit, Corsair H60/H80, Antec Kuhler620 etc.

 

[Hyburnate]

I looked at that but apparently it wasn't as quiet as hoped.

What paint would I need to spray a fan? It can't be that hard?

The http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-000-BX is much better when you see it up close than in the pictures.

Looks like plastic.

I've been told I'm too picky.

Well then, the Asus Direct CU range.

Well then, the Asus Direct CU range.

I want to stick to AMD as later on I will buy a couple more monitors for EyeFinity and don't want to have to pay an extra £200 for another GTX 560.

 

[Hyburnate]

Going to keep the Stock Fan (Waits for haters) till I can afford a H80 or H60.

Titan Fenrir xmas edition CPU cooler (if you can find one).
