Build was finished yesterday, many thanks to my mate Jay helping with the build!! CPU is stock atm, but will be overclocking to about 4gig hopefully once i get a better CPU cooler on order.

PC is running like a dream, only played Crysis atm but with 1600x900 res, all settins on max, and 16aaQ averaging at 50-55fps

Looks great mate, and I love the Mamba's case and stand

How much did all of this set you back?

And I'm hoping your going to get an aftermarket cooler on that! Keeping a D0 at stock should be punishable by death!

Very nice, did not realise how much room is left at the top of the case.

Soullkilla · 31 May 2009 at 09:44

cost just over 2k

yea, just need to find a nice easy to fit cooler that i can fit on easily without having to take the motherboard out, then ill get it on order

Hope that's a legal copy of XP pro photographed on yourwall

why waste sooo much on the peripherals? for the price of the mouse ank keyboard you could get a second 285, watercooling or a months bills

Soullkilla · 31 May 2009 at 10:33

That score seems a bit low to me..

Soullkilla · 31 May 2009 at 10:39

yea? im running stock 920 @2.66, 6gig ram and a BFG 295 OCX, higherst OC version they do

wbc1 · 31 May 2009 at 10:43

Do you mean 285 OCX? My set up gets 10k, and I'd thought an i7 with 285 gets over 18k/20k

Usually cooler that don't have back plates for support aren't that great so if you want a good cooler, you'll have to take your motherboard out.

Apart from that, the pc looks brill

. That G19 and the Razer Mamba looks sweet.

Really nice setup but the stock cooler made me cry.

One observation though - isn't the PSU on upside down? surely the case has a hole for it to suck in cool air from under the case (I know my Silverstone does, but not sure about the Antec 1200)

RIZZEE · 31 May 2009 at 12:15

looking good mate
