Spec Me

5960xNvidiaGamer · 17 Jun 2015 at 13:05

Ok guys I did post a spec me the other day but my budget is now a lot more. I have £3500 to spend on a full system. I know skylake is around the corner but thats ok. I want a Fury X and obviously theres no price yet so I will say £600 for that. So basically £2900 for the rest including monitor, keyboard and mouse too. I want a big case, the one I have now on my other system Antec 1200 is massive but anything bigger?. This is for gaming and need a decent amount of ddr4 ram too. Was looking at X99 but not sure what to pick. I can probably up my budget to £3800. Thanks for the help.

I quite like the look of these https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-184-GL any good?

The cases you want are 900D or Enthoo Primo really - well suited to custom loop cooling

Will you be fully watercooling this? Might be worth doing at this budget

Sorry only just seen this question, I have never done a full custom loop before but yes im very interested in giving it a go. My budget should be plenty going off the specs so I might do just that. I know theres 2 versions of the Furyx coming, I was wanting the watercooled one. Will that be like an all in one kind of thing or will it need a custom loop?

Also if I do need a custom loop what kit would I need? and again price isn't that important. I have had a good look at those cases but not made my mind up yet. Might go for the 900D. Would that be ok to fit in a H100i + a fury X.

It will be a sealed water cooler similar to the R9 295X2.

If you are going for a H100i for the cpu cooler, then you don't need a 900D.

So the Fury X is doesn't need a loop, thanks I was unsure. I really like the Phanteks and would like a go at a full loop, its just I have no knowledge at doing them. Have been building computers for years but never actually done that. So if I got the H110i the Phanteks would be suitable then? I think I will go with that and trust your opinions. How on earth do you post the items above in a list with the pictures and links? is there some kind of extention I need for chrome?

5960xNvidiaGamer · 18 Jun 2015 at 22:06

Thanks Stulid, I am going to go with the Ethoo definately. How do I list my items like you just did? Yes I know im thick lol . When are you adding the fury x onto the site so I can add it to cart ? eagerbeaver me !

5960xNvidiaGamer · 18 Jun 2015 at 23:25

It will be gaming + College Uni ( Computer Science ).Thanks for that stulid will have a mess with it now and show you what i have so far.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 18 Jun 2015 at 23:36

So far without the Fury X and a few others things I have this. Stulid you sir are a legend

Might order 2 sets of the Geil ram. Any idea how long the wait is for that monitor mate?

Oh right ok great, thanks mate.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 19 Jun 2015 at 13:40

Have been working on this a litte. I have decided not to go with the pcie SSD for now but to double the memory to 32gb, does this cause any issues with the 5960k?. Just need the Fury X now guys

and when is that monitor in stock? Also I would like some of those braided colour cables, do ocuk stock them? Am i missing anything? I already have 3 other SSD's I can use and I do have a soundcard in this system but I won't use it if it's not worth it.

Sorry yes mistyped it, its the one shown 5960X haha. Will have a look at the solid states again thanks. Great I couldn't find those cables, you sir are a legend.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 19 Jun 2015 at 14:10

Ok lets try that again. Those cables are out of stock like you say. Any idea when they are back in Stulid? If there won't be any stock for some time can you link me to a PSU which does has braided cable stock please? Won't be ordering for 2 - 4 weeks likely dependent on when I get paid.

Windows 7 64 ultimate for now till 10 is out mate. I didn't know that certain versions could only use so much.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 19 Jun 2015 at 14:56

Yes I get free shipping, will ask about the cables. Thanks Lee.

Solid, but two RAM kits? do you really need 32GB and do you have a suitable 64bit OS for that much RAM as not all version of windows do support high amounts.

Erm do I really need it probably not.. but don't tell my wife that

. Yes I have Win 7 Ultimate mate.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 20 Jun 2015 at 14:28

Just been told from the fiji thread my hx850 would be enough for PSU so think I will reuse that will new cables to match the case.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 20 Jun 2015 at 21:02

If the Fury X is out of stock when I goto order my parts in a few weeks, would I be stupid to go for a 980ti?

5960xNvidiaGamer · 20 Jun 2015 at 21:19

True mate, I am getting ahead of myself lol

5960xNvidiaGamer · 21 Jun 2015 at 22:36

Yeah the fact it was semi modular has been on my mind. I am going to get a new PSU. Was thinking earlier, any idea if it would be worth waiting on Skylake? and would it be compatable with the X99 mobo?
