Post A Picture of Your Last Purchase

So for £17 I thought why not. It will keep me busy this winter .

I enjoyed Legion, Only annoying thing IMO is that the legendaries that you level up are sadly not carrying over to the new expac even though someone at blizz said it may be a possibility.

Too bad rest of the puzzle pieces are all over the place and probably won't make it here for weekend.

Made a comeback to wow as well. Anyone else on Tarren Mill horde?

I'm on Defias Brotherhood Battle tag is Tolemac#21442.

Now I need to sort my add-on for my Razer Naga and Anansi and wth Curse I don't want twitch installed. I just played about 2 hours on my mage. I'm enjoying it so far I just got to the scouting map. I play alliance btw

I had 2 x of the Sapphire 580X Limited Editions, On their own they were great but holy crap, Crossfire sucked.

isn't that the norm though, new expac time to start farming new gear, it's part of what put me off raiding the futility of it all.

Well well well...

Ryzen 7 for me, Ryzen 5 for the missus

Not going to lie though, despite the small I/O on these Asus boards they are absolutely brilliant, kinda tempted to get a X370-F Strix myself now...

 

[AngryGoldfish]

Ooh, nice! It's cool to see an ITX Ryzen build.

 

[AlienALX]

Yeah can we have pics? no one has built one and showed it off yet (ITX).

 

[g0ggles1994]

I can do once I get home from work later, will warn though it isn't terribly flash or anything. Other than the stuff pictured above, its got a Shadow Rock LP, Corsair LPX black, RX 460 all crammed into a FD Core 500. The cables are a mess

 

[g0ggles1994]

As promised.

I did warn it's a dull mess

 

[AlienALX]

Looks great man nice case

Looks great man nice case

Thanks man, missus wanted an ITX build to save space on her desk and we narrowed the cases down to the Core 500 and the Node 304 and we settled on the 500 purely on the DVD drive (which she actually does use a lot haha). I was going to get the Gigabyte AB350N but when I read Tom's review about the VRM temps I didn't bother especially since with regarding the CPU socket position on the board itself, I didn't know whether the Shadow Rock would even fit. You can't see it in the pictures, but there's actually about half a centimetre (if that) from the PSU. Sits above the RAM the same amount too. Going to be getting an AIO next I think.

 

[AngryGoldfish]

I'd love to build in a tiny case some time.

 

[g0ggles1994]

From my own experience building ITX it is rewarding thinking you have a top end PC in such a small case, but at the same time can be extremely frustrating. You have to check your parts fit, then if they only "just" fit, go back and do it all over again. Especially when it comes to the PSU, good lord don't get me started on cable management, depending on how laden you are with components it can turn into a logistical nightmare. My only advice with ITX is keep the parts list light, don't go for big GPUs and always get a modular PSU.

After much deliberation I went to a co-workers house to check his build out after finding out he has a 570X with front mounted AIO, At first the thought of it wasn't that attractive but upon seeing it, It actually looks decent so I pulled the trigger on the 570X Red version, Red filters instead of black, Red LED's on the PSU shroud and front logo instead of white LED's and red anodized screws/bolts instead of black.

I'll be replacing the stock fans with Corsairs HDRGB's, 2 x 120mm HDRGB's at the top, 2 x 140mm HDRGB's at the front with the AIO and a single 120mm HDRGB at the back, The optional £4/$4/€4 PSU shroud cap will also be added in when Corsairs EU store get them back in stock.

Arriving tomorrow, Will post pics of the build when it's up and running.

TBH I wouldn't mind the white one of those it's quite nice

Have you considered putting a 360 Corsair AIO up front? That would give you more performance and look better (IMO).

Read my mind ^_^

Corsair are releasing their first ever 360mm AIO sometime this month, so I'll get that and hook it up to the front with 3 x Corsair HDRGB fans

 

[AlienALX]

Defintely the wise choice, IMO. Cooling wise 360mm is better than 280. I had a Corsair H110, and whilst it was class leading at the time having a 360 has made me realise you can set the fans to low and never have to worry. Which is nice.
