    Default Rate my build.

    I built my new desktop a while ago, and forgot to post it here.

    Time to showoff...

    why such a powerful graphics card & weak drive?
    The only true authority stems from knowledge, not from position.

    You can contact me via matrix protocol: @grats:grats.win or you can email me at the same domain, any user/email address.

    Yeah this, nice build but I would've spend more on the HDD. Perhaps a Seagate SSHD or just a 64/128GB SSD in addition to a normal HDD. Perhaps it doesn't bother you though but it's certainly worth the extra price IMO.

    What games do you plan on playing?

    his best option atm would be the 32gb sandisk cache drives, but yea you stunt entire system performance with drives

    Most of my data is sitting on that external . I've been thinking of getting a ssd but the cost at the moment isn't worth it.

    I've been on the fence about SSD's, he cost isn't worth the speed for me, my Sata 6gb connections are fast enough for me using my WD Black.

    For games...

    TF2, Battlefield, Tomb Raider, Skyrim, Smite...anything I see that interests me lol.

    Read previous comments on ssd's.

    Using the Tiermaster fans that came with the case and two Coolmaster fans ( http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16835103073 )

    Which fans are you using?

    Currently have it Oc'd to 4.2 for now; I may Oc some more but during the summer it's too humid.



    In the morning average temp is lower than 30c.

    $40 for around 4 times the performance is well worth it imo

    Forgot to state, the WD Black is from Rma'ing my original WD Blue that only lasted a week.

    The Blue cost me 100 bucks. The one people have been recommending me is 249, which is another hundred for less than half a terabyte (256gb).

    The ssd: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16820147193

    Why I'm on the fence is the cost to size ratio; just seems so much more for that little bit of speed.
