Time for an upgrade.

Well yes. But IMO ivy bridge is a little mistake. In everday use you wouldnt see the difference.
In most games the difference wouldn't be much unless someone got a fast graphic card like GTX690 or SLI/CF pair of high-end on a 120Hz monitor at 1920 res. But in CPU intensive games like Shogun 2 the differenct can be between a minimum fps of 27fps vs 30fps, or on 36fps vs 40fps on a dynamic event in Guild Wars 2 with like 40 people/mobs.
 
hell no, 110 for a case that looks like a ugly cousin of a thermaltake
whyyyyyy
maybe it looks better in person ><
black, glossy, will it look good for long?
 
The DS3H doesnt have Luicd support (graphics switching between a card and IGP), the sound chip or outputs are different too.

Ok, thanks. Re : the above psu question. What do you think (#20)?

Also, what would you go for, cpu / mobo / cooler and case?
 
Yes I would give the PSU a go.

CPU = 3570K
MOBO = D3H
COOLER = Alpenfohn K2 (but its OTT for the actual mobo, maybe a Coolermaster 612S instead?)
CASE = what you like to look at everyday;)
 
Thank you. Much appreciated. :)

I'll take a look at the coolers. Case wise, whatever I choose, it needs to be big. I've had midi's before, and things cooked a little in there, and even worse than that, trying to fiddle with anything was an absolute nightmare due to the lack of space.


This might be overkill, though...:D

lol thats for sure overkill yep
tinytom looks smaller than me there!

anyway i think smaller cases not always have to be hot, space to work in is fair enuff tho
