I want a over kill PC

I am serious now I am looking as just had blue screen 116 and might as well buy a new PC as fed up of looking to see what the problem is. My case is too small to for a new graphic card in so if I buy a new case I might as well buy a new PC. I was only playing Far Cry 3 as well.
 
the £2981.95 seems ok price but not the £12k lol. Wouldn't buy that if I won the lotto that's too over kill for me.

Why do they allways put seagate HDD i don't like that make.

Just build a tidy 4790k Titan X PC and leave it air cooled. It'll be a damn sight cheaper than the ones linked to above and will be overkill for 99% of the time.

That sounds good. What to go with it. I want it so I can easily get to things later on if I ever need to change. Like now I cant even get to my RAM with out taking CPU cooler of its that big.
 
Intel i7-3770K
Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H
Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GB Kit
MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670
Sandisk Extreme 120GB
Antec P183
LG GH24NS90
Noctua NH-D14 Cooler
Antec High Current Pro HCP-850
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

That what I have now. All I keep getting is crashes on crashes and blue screen. I formatted it but no help. I also get bad stuttering in games. Like I say the case inside this is too small to fit another graphic card in and the CPU cooler is like a big tower block blocking my ram so I cant even get to that with out taking it off.

Its never been right from day one with HDMI to HDMI not working and 2 weeks later fan stopped on top of case. lol. Will not be buying from there again ccl I will defo buy it from here as more good reviews on service and build times. I had to wait 3 weeks be for I got it and they where making excuses up waiting for delivery even though it said in stock on website.

It a shame.

A new case and a closed loop water cooler (H110 etc) will fix your two smaller issues.

Then its a case of finding out why its crashing, if its overclocked try going back to stock.

Ive done all that going back to stock settings in bios etc. Not over heating according to GPU. Most games run at 82c.
 
No desk top perfect and fast. Just gaming. I updated the bios to F18 from gigabyte website but that didn't work. I updated bios fine just didn't mend the 116 error and crashes in games.

That's too good a system to give up on it - it's gotta be fixable.

My first thought is that 82c is high - can you do something about that, maybe take the side off the case?

Can you take a photo of the rig so we can see what you're dealing with?

Worth doing a clean Windows install so we can eliminate that.

Also worth testing each ram stick individually - if that means taking the heat sink off then so be it - you can pick up a stock cooler for peanuts.

82c is in game on desk top its around 38c. I have formatted quite a few times to see if it was that and installed drivers etc but still no good.

Throwing silly money at a problem is not really a solution imo.

It's one thing wanting the BEST, but what is your reasoning? What is your set up?

You have more than a capable system. Fixing your current issues are more important.

Yup. Doing what stulid said and putting on windows 10 preview. Can all ways format back to windows 7. Can only try. But 99% sure its graphic card with 116 error as when search google 116 error normally driver or graphic card dying error.
 
WOW. Just installed windows 10 and massive improvement from the word go. Not tried games yet as just updating windows update. Never upgraded be for as I always format so is upgrade a lot different then clean format?. I have not formatted this time because I updated it using windows up date as not got a blank dvd or usb for iso image. But I didn't no that it would update the drivers it self as its installed the new 349.90 version. But the net at the moment is a lot faster.
 
Ive noticed something else different. I looked on the internet while on windows 7 to see how you can tell what windows you booted up in. Legacy or Uefi. People said to look in msinfo32 and it tells you there. I did this and it didn't say anything that was missing. In windows 10 msinfo32 it says Bios mode UEFI. I tried Legacy mode too in windows 7 and that wasn't there either. So did windows 7 not get fully installed?. Not played games yet as still updating to 10049 version from 10041 version.
 
Well I hope its not a placebo effect as they say. As I just played FarCry 3 like I did in windows 7 with ultra graphics and the mountain back ground glitch seems to have gone. I will download GPUz and look at the temps later. Only problem is Xbox one controller not working wired as get code 19. I search and is common for this build of windows so hope there is a fix in next. Will play a bit of Elite Dangerous too later. I hope I'm not jumping the gun as I not played it long enough yet but as seen as windows 7 didn't see what I was booted up in in msinfo32 and does now, it looked like windows 7 wasn't installing properly.
 
I have formatted my PC again with windows 7 yesterday. I then updated all the drivers from windows update. The only thing I didn't do was put the mobo drivers on as I wanted to see what drivers windows 10 installed as I installed that too. Under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller it has.

Standard SATA ACHI Controller
Standard STAT ACHI Controller

I did notice under storage controller that it did install Microsoft Storage Spaces Controller which I think is GSATA for marvell. So is my SSD installed in the GSATA marvell and not normal sata 3?.

The last time I am doing it because it takes ages lol.
