Hi Guys,
Just got back into Pc's after years of just consoles. Whilst I still mainly play on xbox due to friends .. I've got the bug for Pc's again... more building and fiddling rather than gaming at the mo.
I bought a pre build about 6 months ago and have added a few bits but I've just got myself a Corsair C70 to get ready for when Haswell comes out and will do the build myself.
The pre built I got was from Freshtech Solutions and went like this.
i5 3570k @ Stock
Asus P8Z77-V LX
CIT Vantage case
16gb Corsair Vengeance
1TB HDD 7200
unbranded 500w PSU
DVD RW
I had a Sapphire HD 7750 low profile lying around so I bunged that in. I then added a TX3 Evo and clocked it up to 4.2ghz (lazy one touch OC) . I then saw a decent deal on a Corsair 850AX Psu so that went in also. Finally I've just bought a EVGA 670 FTW so I can start doing a bit more ARMA 3 .
When Haswell drops i'll transfer the 850AX and the 670 into my new C70, get a h100i and add another 670 FTW I think (unless I can step up to 700 series)
Anyway hope to be picking up a lot more knowledge on oc'ing and looking at product sneak peaks on here.
