1200W

You could run 4 x GTX 980's off that

Nice build though.

to be honest, the cost wasn't much different from a 1000w PSU, plus need a little headroom for a water pump etc.. well that's when my wife gets over this spend lol!! :rolleyes:

Worst "oh look at my expensive rig" post ever!

Jelly of the swift.

Jay281 · 19 Dec 2014 at 18:52

True, however the rig has been through a few variations in the last year lol

I'm moving over from a IPS screen so i'm hoping the TNs colours on the Swift are upto it!!

and to be honest the parts may sometime be expensive...but not necessarily the best, or the right combo

It clearly isn't okay. It's in your house and not mine, ha. The ole' humble brag.

very nice, going to post pics?

garymcq23 · 20 Dec 2014 at 14:56

I've just came from a ips panel to the rog swift while gaming I don't notice any difference in the colours although I do notice it a bit on the desktop which doesn't bother me to be honest the 144hz and gsync more than make up for it o and I'm getting a better k/d ratio on bf4 to now which I'm putting down to the monitor

Jay281 · 20 Dec 2014 at 16:44

Cool, was hoping the Asus ROG Swift wasn't going to be taking a hit on the colours, will post some pics when I install the parts on Monday!!

cant wait!

Gilbert89 · 20 Dec 2014 at 19:16

Hurry up Monday!! Oh wait actually, erm.

I love the corsair H110 water cooler, I'm using one in my new build and wow. Compared to the old cooler master heat sink i had being using its amazing.
