Biggest fail ever?

How many problems can you see here?

Darkpilgrim · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:18

For a start you bought Startrek online :eek:

No cooler unless you are using the stock Intel one, also dual channel ram for a triple channel board.

Dual-channel (?) RAM with X58?

RJC · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:33

Dual channel ram, I assume the Intel CPU is a i7, can't really see.

DBT85 · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:35

I see no TIM

Redmint · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:35

You've just discovered the graphics card doesn't fit in that case?

Ken · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:37

Case box already open on delivery?

Bito · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:37

SKT 1156 or 1155 cpu and dual channel ram with X58 mobo?

You printed the letter in Comic Sans MS, nobody in their right mind is going to take that seriously. Get a better font, stat.

Dual channel RAM and a Sandybridge processor on an X58 board.

It isn't a high enough res for us to steal your Mafia 2 code.

Who in their right mind leaves new hardware boxed long enough to take photos ?

Ah I know! its so obvious! OCUK didn't ship the BURGER??

- Non-80 Plus PSU and a high power rig
- X58, when SB is out
- Dual channel Memory (not that it makes much of performance difference - but if you go for X58 you may as well get a triple channel kit, the price per GB is good).
- Paid well over the odds for the SC version of the GPU to get a tiny overclock

Would be nice to have a keyboard, mouse, some speakers, better cpu cooler and some TIM ? Also I do hope that is not Dual chan memory.

Tomcat825 · 11 Jan 2011 at 15:57

Box is tatty and there is no CPU cooler is what I noticed...

MADEinSTOKE · 11 Jan 2011 at 17:31

You could have gone amd for cheaper

Means nothing? A psu can be not so efficient yet deliver the power when needed, albeit with a little more waste and heat. Looks like a Coolermaster psu though, which is usually crap. No idea on the 700W version, but the 600W was outed as really a decent 450w supply by hardware secrets.

Sorry, I should have gone into more detail. The low efficiency is just one of the things wrong with this PSU. Looking at this review for the 500W version of the PSU, it isn't a great PSU.

Considering the £500+ graphics card, I would definitely have gone with a better quality PSU - this one wouldn't have cost too much more and is much better quality and efficiency.
