Medium Budget Gaming build

Looked up on Aria how the hell is that RAM so cheap? Decent latencies and 1.5v for that price is an amazing deal.

Yea - I couldn't resist! Not that he'll notice any extra performance though...

I remember TTL on the original Dark Rock Pro (not version 2) had an OC3D sticker over where the logo was but they might have changed it for v2 (it does look formed on the metal to me, too). I was hoping to do something similar with my little hornet logo over there <. Guess I could dremel/sand it if it really comes to that. Let us know when you get it, sure. Have fun!

Will let you know! You're after a new cooler are you?

It's for my new build. Apparently the girl that processes the money was on holiday but it's coming in soon, maybe this weekend. Then it'll be mostly from scratch, depending how much I get (might get another 7850 if I can afford it).

Well the whole thing is basically done - I'm just doing the final stress runs for the CPU overclock and then I'll be onto the GPU.

The whole system is pretty quiet and is performing well. The only issue I have is that the supplied fans are 1800rpm @ 12v and non pwm so I'm trying to think of the best way to knock them down. They are wired to be powered from molex or 3-pin. I'm thinking of getting this to keep wires off the mobo.
