AMD FX-4170 Gaming build, Nvida GPU, Watercooling

I love the complaining about slow loading times and then doesn't spec himself an SSD. How people can live knowing they more or less just flushed money down the loo.

Please, listen to these guys and get an Intel. This is just getting stupid.

Well, it's your money to waste to all I have to say is good luck.

This bit does make me laugh though:


You literally have no where to go CPU-wise.

The FX-x3xx (Fx-8150>Fx-8350) Series are coming out in next few months. They are AM3+ and based on Piledriver.

They are supposed to fill in the downfall of the Bulldozer range not living uyp to specs. As the FX-4170 is only £100 im happy to use it until an FX-8350/FX-4370 drops down in price.

The i5 will most likely still destroy it. With the i5 you wouldn't need to upgrade for years. With the Bulldozer range you will be needing to upgrade more than necessary.

But then you're waiting for an unknown quantity, that likely won't be as good as what's currently out from the Intel range.

Do you like wasting money?

I am already saving for an SSD which is for sale on another online store. I have enough for a 60gb one but want to go 120gb as I plan running FEA Analysis on some models which would end up in a 20/30gb file.

It has all been planned, I just didn't want to have to explain FEA.

Oddly yes. If I have nothing to save for and I have spare money I spend it on myself or my girlfriend as a treat for no particular reason, but when money is needed I can always put it back as I get paid Weekly.

Meh, you're just a troll.
No way you're buying the system in the OP.

Once you add £70 for the H80 so I could overclock the CPU quietly so it would be able to handle FEA Analysis, then the £30 for the quiet High flow fans to replace H80 ones your looking at £1025

OcUK will be quite happy to have you back in 6 months time parting with another £900 for a new computer as your system no longer plays the latest games on "Ultra" settings :rolleyes:

Nope because he's already included a heatsink, which is just short of £70. So take out the heatsink, put in the H80 and you just a few pounds over.
