benching...that sounds addictive
it's no where near ready yet. Waiting for ram and then will move onto flashing the bios, patching the os and then maybe clocking her a little.Built this rig to use day to day... Might run a few tests, just to prove the oc's metal
that case is real nice, any more pics to get a look see what kinda size it is overall

i really wanted the ballistix in red, unfortunately c@@@@@l are a pos and despite claiming the contrary when i ordered had no satock of any colour and kept putting the delivery date back and back.
Way back when I specced this system I picked this reaper but had to change my mind due to the mobo layout. Thanks to the H50 i've been able to fall back to my original plan. Got to get my head round setting the speed and timings yet, too used to xmp profiles..
