I must add aswell that the 6770 is a brilliant card for the money it lets me play bf3 with good fps at 1080p

 

[TheOneHalf]

you did a good job

and it is a good card, especially for the amount of money it costs ^^

Its a great case, only problem ive had with it was front panel USB3, the cable just would not bend so i had to remove the top HDD rack and feed it round

Nice looking rig you have there.

How's the psu? I heard fromk many places that the fan would speed up but wouldn't slow down thus it sounds like an aircraft carrier.

As to the pc then it looks great. Especially for a first build.

the PSU has been fine, and quiet, the pc runs near silent undergaming load when i have the h100 on low

Good. I shall get that psu then. Which shop did you get it from?

Dont hold me to this but i believe that the PSU is quiet for me as it has a load controlled fan and my system will be nowhere near pushing a 750. i got it from aria.co.uk as i did with all the pc parts, good price + amazing delivery

H100 + 2500K = 4.2 Ghz? Ur math is not right my friend xD

 

[Iyax]

H100 + 2500K = 4.2 Ghz? Ur math is not right my friend xD

My math is wrong? the CPU is cool as hell and i dont need anything above 4.2Ghz.

some people just want it quiet and very very cool. also the fans would basically be non audible at this level
