Gaming Spec

[beejjacobs]

Nah I'm upgrading, so i've decided on the 7970, and reaper I understand it's easy to build a pc but I like to have the warranty and is that cooler air or water, and will overclockers build a computer that I specify ?

"antec khuler 620" is a sealed water cooler, so no maintenance is required.

I believe they will, for a price of course, call them or drop them a webnote I believe.

Yeah. Apparently I can't type quickly today

Ah right thanks guys so Overclockers will build that pc with an antec khuler 620?

 

[beejjacobs]

They'll build pretty much anything yeah. That cooler is a good choice

 

[Masterdeadly]

Can I contact them via webnote?

 

[Masterdeadly]

And what about overclocking the 2500K? reckon I could get like 4ghz with that cooler ?

You can, not sure if they will just ask you to ring up if it's for a truly custom PC (i.e. not one of their configs). Don't know on this one, worth a try!

Easily, 4.5Ghz+ should be in your sights really.

Doesn't that void the warranty and with my current AMD system I had to sacrifice ram speed for my cpu will this be the case with the intel cpu?

Do I need some fans or something ?

 

[beejjacobs]

Looks good, no it will come with fans.

That says how many are included, should be enough. Can always add more later.

No i don't think it voids any warranties, just be careful and stick to this:

and you'll be okay.

Your RAM should run at 1600Mhz with the overclock. As I said before, any reason for the microATX motherboard?

I don't know what a MicroATX motherboard is suggest a better one for me for the same price?

What is that for?

microATX is smaller than ATX, for smaller cases etc...

Are you likely to go SLI/crossfire? (multi-GPU) in the future?)

[Masterdeadly]

That is the case I'm getting the one I linked.

Edit yes I do I plan to get another 7970 in the future.

 

[beejjacobs]

Sorry misread your spec, that comes with two fans which should be fine. You don't need loads.

 

[Masterdeadly]

It's fine Seriously can't wait to purchase this

 

[beejjacobs]

Will be sweet. Post pics

 

[Masterdeadly]

Just gotta get rid of this current pc.

As beej says the mATX is smaller. This means your going to get fewer PCI slots and possibly fewer RAM slots on some mobos. If your case can take a fullsized ATX mobo you might as well use one, so you dont hamper upgrades later on.

I don't understand your need to have the system prebuilt. If you just buy the parts and DIY it, they still come with a warranty so it's not the best argument for paying more in the long run. If you aren't confident on building we will help you as much as possible. There are plenty of guides on youtube to help you see how relatively easy it is
