New Members: Post your introduction!

Hey all, I'm new here, but I've been floating around the Gaming computing forums for a while specifically GPforums for New Zealand. I've been building computers Overclocking, benching and modding since I was about 14, Started off with a pentium 4 build which I managed to get a 4.2GHz OC on ^_^ Happy to be here and I hope I can contribute !

Cheers.
 
Hi everyone. I'm also new here. I built my first computer back christmas of 2008. I've been building and working on computers ever since. I think the system was a Q8200 with 2GB of RAM and a Gigabyte EP45-DS3L. Glad I joined the community.

Cheers everyone.

Hello all, just joined, love the reviews on youtube by TTL which is what brought me here, time to have a look round.
 
Hi All !

Joined the forum yesterday but have watched countless you tube vids of Tiny Tom Logan, who has inspired me into my first build of a Gaming Rig.

Posted a few comments yesterday in the Introductions area and was warmly welcomed into the fold and was also give some great advise to boot !

**BUT STILL I AM IN A QUANDARY WITH MY GPU !!?? **

To all who can help advise and 'OC3D ELITE' status I would really value your opinion, so far my build is as follows:-

My build so far is as follow:-

1. CASE Cosair Special Edition Graphite Series 600TSE White
2. POWER SUPPLY Corsair CMPSU-850AXUK Professional Series Gold 850W
3. CPU COOLER Corsair CWCH100 Hydro Series H100 Extreme
4. CORSAIR FANS x2 120mm x2 SP in the H100 (exhausting out top through H100 RAD) with 120mm x1 AF in back of Case (exhausting out back) I still have the 200m stock fan in the front I want to change this but not sure what to yet (any advise??)
5. CPU Intel BX80619I73930K Core i7-3930K 6-Core Processor (3.2GHz (3.8GHz Turbo), Socket 2011, 12MB L3 Cache, Turbo Boost 2.0)
6. MOTHERBOARD - amazon.co.uk
Asus Rampage IV Extreme/BF3 Motherboard (Socket 2011, Intel X79, DDR3, Extended ATX, USB 3.0
7. RAM Corsair 8GB (2x 4G DOMINATOR Platinum Memory Kit 2133MHz (I will probably max this through all the dim slots to be 32G.

I am yet to buy SSD Drives probably Corsair Force GT 90gb for system and another just for games etc

BUT THE BIG ONE FOR ME IS THE GPU !!???
I have been looking at GTX680s (probably Palit GTX 680 Jetstream Edition 4GB) what do you think ?
I was given good savvy advise yesterday from some of OC3D member and all is very welcome as I am just learning on the job here, but do want my build to be as good as my budget will allow and a little future proofed too, well as much as it can be !!

If money was no object what would you do? a GTX690 possibly a 680 ! or count your losses and look at the GTX670 as you could OC this to around the 680 marque anyway !

What GPU would you maybe recommend to compliment the rest of my system build !

Many thanks KANEY !

Not really the place to be asking questions about your upcoming build, dude :) That's what the 'New Build Advice' section is for.
There are quite a few things that can be said about the list that you have provided, but you won't get an answer on this thread. Create a topic on New Build Advice, and then we'll all be happy to help!

At any rate, welcome to :oc3d:
 
Greetings. Long time computer enthusiast here. When I'm not fiddling with computer hardware or programs, I usually tinker with other tech. Stumbled over TTL-videos awhile back and decided to take a look. Well met.
 
Hey guys, very excited to be here. Been registered for a while but never got round to saying hello. I'm a novelist but at the moment I'm experimenting with twitter fiction, in particular a comedy feed called @badinventor. Check it out/follow if you're interested. Great to be part of the 3D community!
