The 6 Years Old Beast And Still Strong

[George_Plays]

Hay guys George here, this is my first custom PC i built 6 years ago and it still rocks and plays everything at 30fps or more. But its a shame I have decided to finally create a new build because its slowing being out performed by all the new parts that are cheap and nasty. Once I'm finished building I will post new snazzy pics of my new build.

hehe reminds me of my old Alienware with a Phenom 2 940 and Crossfire 5770s

Shame Crossfire was derped, the stutter used to drive me nuts.

The Phenom II x4 CPUs really do hold their own, AMD still has trouble beating them with their newer quads TBH.

Nice build dude! Goes to show that age is nothing when it comes to performance, only thing that has the hairs on my neck standing up is your PSU.. I have literally nothing good to say about OCZ units. I'd swap that timebomb out for something else.

Not bad at all still... But a "1GB WD Black"? lol

He most likely hit the "G" instead of the "T" mate...... and forgot to read through thoroughly prior to posting ^_^

Damn, i wouldnt sell that PC for all the money in the world, its pure awesomeness!

Pretty sure they were just taking a little stab at OP :lol:

Again with all the OCZ is a no go. My ZX unit is still rock stable and runs my 290x rig perfectly fine. Never failed me. Also have OCZ ssds etc, literally never had any fail on me.
I know mine are just an extremely small percentage, however it should at least go to show that OCZ does not mean death to the PCs
