Completely new build

[arwis]

Mate I didn't say anything about any MB lol.. I said

1) Get mushkin RAM http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=4181464

2) Get a Noctua NH-D14

3) get a Nvidia GTX570

Then you will have a perfect rig =]

Well MB comment wasn't for you. Somehow quote didn't made it.

Anyway what's the deal with RAM? How does Mushkin differs from Corsair and what's really the difference between yours and this http://www.komplett.dk/k/ki.aspx?sku=590451 . Read quite few reviews that Corsair Dominator series RAM's has exceptional performance and lifespan. Other parameters are identical.

As for noctua, could you comment if there's enough space in NZXT Phantom case to put a side fan together with Noctua DH14?

The NH-D14 can't be contained with the side fan installed. The Dominator RAM also can't fit under the NH-D14. Otherwise the Mushkin RAM goes toe to toe with the Dominator RAM.

I would take a couple tools and style the side fan port to pop out about an inch to allow both the NH-D14 and the fan.

Ahh ok then lol.. Mushkin as you should know by now is the forum favourite and will fit under the NH-D14.. As for space with the NH-D14 and the Phantom here's a pic I took earlier.. I think a 20mm fan can just squeeze in but not a 30mm =[

Thx for insight and for photos of your case with noctua. As for RAM and noctua compatability issues I found a solution on Noctuas forums:

Reason I don't wanna take mushink is because the site I'm ordering everything does not have them. Shipping all parts together ~60EU compared to ~200+EU shipping everything apart so I'd like to get everything from 1 retailer.

 

[FunkyMonkey90]

Ahh fair enough thn.. Ill post another pic when I get a 20mm fan to see if it'll fit

Ive always used Crucial as its good quality and hasnt let me down as of yet. and good prices on their higher end stuff. Ram is Ram...its just how the people put it together that matters.

I read a bit about the sandy bridge last night and apparently controller allows you only for 8/8 lane SLI/CF, so I am just confirming what was mentioned before just go for the single 570.

Ok than I'll stick with 570. However what about future SLI? Or it will be better to buy a new card?

 

[INMATE183]

One card all the way and save money up to get next best thing when its out dated imo.

6990 might come out at some point?

I don't really wanna wait for more than I already did. So I'll got for 570.

OR

Thx to blizzard I might be getting 580 afterall. Just need to find my account details on the old phone somewhere.

8x/8x is just as good (in actual games) then 16x/16x

you only see difference in synthetic benchmarks

any p67 board does 8x/8x

 

[arwis]

Do they ship these outside UK? I mean to EU countries(Denmark for example)

http://www.aria.co.uk/Systems/Bundl...Pre-Built+Overclocked+Bundle+?productId=43223

This is exactly same price as buying all the parts separately and it's already running 4.8k so no troubles OCing or anything.

 

[FunkyMonkey90]

E-mail them directly then they can tell you how much it would cost to deliver to =]

 

[Rastalovich]

The best single gpu will be less of a pita than any multi gpu setup.

Don't know if there's a cost-price on a pita ?!?

My order was canceled due to SB issues

All shops taken MB's out.... Also I'm starting 3 months long internship 22nd February meaning there's no point getting PC now as I'll be moving a lot during that time. Build delayed till summer
