Hello there!
I'm first time posting here, and I thought I could show you my rig, "the beast" that I use for all of my work.
I've been using it for like half a year, and it's been quite a journey with it, especially with GPU's. I've changed 3-4 GPU's from then, and, now I use my HD7540D. Why? Just because of the noise, and power consumption. I hate everything that makes noise, can't stand when a fan makes some noise. Yeah, I've got stock cooler on my CPU, but I don't have any money currently to change it, when I get some money, some giant cooler will come so I can OC my CPU and cool it passively.
Another thing why I don't like noise is because I sleep in the same room where my PC stays, and I'm a part of folding @ home community here so when I go to sleep I turn on folding.
My rig specs:
AMD A6-5400K currently at 4GHz. Most stable clock was 4.7GHz
6GB DDR3 Ram @ 1600MHz (OC'ed, 1x2GB Transcend 1333MHz / 1x4GB TakeMS 1333MHz)
ECS A55F2-M3
HD7540D
Corsair CX430M
500GB Segate @ 5400RPM 2.5" (soon an SSD upgrade)
Some NoName case, but I like it
I was a bit concerned about the RAM sticks, but it turned out to be very good. I'm happy that I can keep them at 1600MHz because of the GPU.
But, enough of my talking, here are some pics!
Testing of the newborn GTX470 SOC (was baked
) - Now working perfectly fine. 
I don't have some beastly PC, because I don't have the money for that. But I like mine, it does the job.
Just, I'm thinking of adding one more screen, for better multitasking.
I hope you like it, and if you have some comments or questions feel free to post it here!
Thanks for listening!
