hi 8 pack im thinking of selling my current rig and building a new 1 in 900d case

i primarily game with it.

what would be your choice of spec and money is no object

i will be watercooling.

thanks in advance.
 
Money no Object 8 Pack Supernova. With new upgrades which I will implement on my return to the UK. 4930K RIVE BE 4 x R290X, 2666 C10 Memory.
 
build options

hi 8pack

how much of that ram do you recommend 16 or 32 ?

i currently game on 2560x1440 and will never go multi moniter so would a pair of r290x be sufficient.

thanks.
 
Put a thread in the GH forum, give yourself a budget, whether it be £1500 or £3500 (whatever you can spend)...

We'll help you out..
 
I say we do an ask Doomedspeed forum as he is the expert around here!!!

Yeah R290X x 2 would work well under water and will rip through the resolutions your playing at!!

16gb is enough for performance in quad channel yes. More = Perf down unless you absolutely need it!!!
 
thanks for help will get my current rig up for sale then be in touch for advice before placing large order.

please feel free to advise on any changes and ive read about the new 1200iw corsair do i need to change my existing 1200w corsair.
many thanks.
 
No keep yopur Corsair the AX1200 is better in my eyes than the 1200i. I use 1200 AX in my systems not the newer model.

Build looks fine. GPU can be debated but those are good GPU and clock well. AMD R290X are worth a look with water cooling on em. As are 780ti the same.
 
thanks again for advice 8pack had a look into 290x sli vs 780 sli



and 290x beats it hands down.

never used amd before but there's always 1st for everything.

probably go for 2 pre watercooled from you do you know if this includes backplates as i prefer the look.

thanks.
