My first rig project :D

To do list;
Check overclock settings
Upload photos
Get the system 'housed' properly. This mainly involves sorting the cables out and perhaps will involve paying for it at the shop down the road.

At present;
CPU multiplier: 38
CPU voltage: 1.16
DRAM: 1.55

I will re set to factory to settings on the bios as the system double posts frequently. Much less frequently since I lowered the multi to 38 (it was at 46 but blue screen a couple months back so I lowered it as can't thinl what else would have caused it.)
 
i wrote down all the bios settings earlier as I couldn't find the exact video i used to make the overclock seeings.
full system spec;
i5 25k
z68 pro gen 3 asus mobo
zalman 9+
7950 3gB msi twin frozr
8bg 1600mhz corsair ram
800W corsair psu
1050p monitor
150 bg hard drive

the hard drive is a weak point in the overall system and certainly the next things i will purchase would be an ssd, or a 1080p monitor for a clearer picture while gaming.
 
Hi there OC :)

can someone suggest best hardware choice for upgrade, mainly for gaming, but could use extra grunt for running resource hungry applications simultaneously on dual monitors.

gaming is online multiplayer.

current spec;

i5 25k
z68 pro gen 3 asus mobo
zalman 9+
7950 3gB msi twin frozr
8bg 1600mhz corsair ram
800W corsair psu
1050p monitor
1080p monitor
150 gb optical hard drive
250 gb ssd

I'm thinking more memory?

Alternatively to invest in another SSD, to dedicate to separate uses.

Thank you :)
 
ok thanks.

im not really flush enough to buy another gpu yet, but ill see how it fares up when the 1080p monitor arrives, im guessing some fps drop.

current budget is £100. though by NYs it can be £300 and maybe ill get a new gpu then, which would be the best thing to uprgrade.

i've got afterburner which I rely on to do my OC.

jbh your main rig looks really cool and tidy. i cant even work out where everything is lol - what are the specs?

cheers
