My Pc build 2013
« on: November 13, 2013, 10:48:56 AM »
After watching my Q6600 PC drag balls to run dolphin emulator with zelda windwalker maxxed out (yea, i know your probably like wtf) I decided to just upgrade my processor/ram/motherboard.Of course being the squandering SOAB that i am,all this came into play when i played BF4 beta. (Big fan and playing since 1942,i tripped donkey dick when i found out about the Desert Combat Mod)

Intel I7 3770k Ivy Bridge
MSI Z77MA-G45 Motherboard
8 GB Corsair DDR3 2100MHZ Vengeance Red
Samsung 120GB SSD
Coolermaster Gemin II S524 CPU Cooler (still not 100% sold on LCS,might add a H100i down the line)
Thermaltake 850W Smart Power Modular
Gigabyte GTX 760 Rev 2.0 windforce 3x
Corsair 350D Tower
Coolermaster CM Storm Quickfire Rapid
Thermaltake Esport Level 10 Mouse
Logitech G430
Dell S2440 24" IPS Panel
GELID White sleeved Cable Extension
Custom LED setup (not a fan of to bright/in your face lighting)

From this


To this


Lighting Mod i did with some LED's:

very very nice

+1 for desert combat mention

+1 for emu upgrade

My most notable overclock to date was a medocino celeron from 300mhz to 450 mhz, precisely to play Legend of Zelda on an emu.

* TriniWyatt hats off to you sir

I like how nice and neat that 350D makes everything look.
You can't help but want to square everything away.

So i just finished my HTPC build,well partially that is.Been saving to get me a Fractal Design NODE 605,but my big bro ended up getting me a case for Christmas,not the node,however a Thermaltake DH101 HTPC. Been wanting one of these since their release so many years ago,but couldnt afford it back then. +1 for him.
specs are:
Intel i5 3470
Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H
8GB DDR3 Samsung memory
500 GB HDD (will be adding 3x3tb's soon enough)
Logitech DiNovo Edge Keyboard (dont really need it,after i set up XBMC,this case has it's own front Display and Remote)
Some $75 aftermarket CPU cooler which i picked up from Wizz,must say it pretty quiet.
Random 500W psu (will be upgrading that pretty soon as well)



DAT BRUSHED ALUMINUM !!!

sweet HTPC

I notice no graphics card. Despite the otherwise burly specs. Not going for a Steam Machinesque HTPC?

Or is that coming later down the pipe?

hahhaha @ leecher PC

I'm really hoping to have a router to that duty instead of dedicating a PC to it myself.

^nah@steambox.And these Ivy's have pretty decent 1080p playback,so no dedicated video card.Soley for XBMC.

interesting.

I would think you could do a pure XBMC box with a lot less horsepower than an i5. Even for 1080p.

Not a bit of overkill? 8gb as well?

Those specs sort of scream Steam Machine to me.. XBMC would be fine one something half as powerful. lol

So that's what you call it.  :laughing7:

I too have a dedicated 'leecher', but it's connected to my landlord's 30 MB (wired).
No need to bog down my own connection with downloads.

If you use only one gateway (on the wireless connection) you can still connect that leecher to your network via wired ethernet.
Just use a different IP scheme on your network.

yea,specs are a bit overkill to be honest,but i got most of the stuff on great deals,so i went with it.

Thanks for the headsup on the IP thing arc,will look into it.
