Case: Thermaltake Tsunami Dream, all aluminum with no gaudy window. I've had it since ~2004.

PSU: 1000W modular...something. I think it's Thermaltake but could be wrong.

CPU Cooler: Stock baby.

Ram: 8 GB DDR3. Kingston HyperX I think.

CPU: AMD quad 2.6 Ghz.

Motherboard: Some Asus board with a very long string of alphabet soup that I can never remember.

HD: 2x Kingston SSDs striped (1 GB/s!) and a 3 TB SATA.

GPU: Radeon HD...5700? God it's been so long since I cared :)

Display: Two Asus 22"

Audio: Headphones, because I have kids who sleep while I game.

I haven't felt a pressing need to update anything but my hard drives in YEARS.

I'm still working on my case (it's a full-body mod), but here's the specs:

Case: Vintage WWII 50mm "Fat 50" ammo can
Mobo: ASRock LGA1155 H77 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 uITX
PSU: SeaSonic Bronze 300W TFX12V v2.3 Power Supply
CPU: i5-3550 Ivy Bridge 3.3GHz LGA1155 77W 4Core HD2500 (Lapped for better heat transfer)
RAM: G.SKILL Ares 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
GPU: ZOTAC GT640 2GB 128-bit DDR3 PCIE 3.0 x16
SSD: Crucial M4 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC SSD (Boot drive)
HDD: WD Caviar 500GB 7200RPM 16MB SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" (Programs and files)
DVD: ASUS Black 12X/16X/48X SATA Blu-ray
Input: Logitech Black USB Wired Slim Desktop
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

This is relatively a bargain computer (about $930 from Newegg), but it fits the theme and works well. The case is still being worked on by the airbrusher and metal fabricator, so I've got the unit running on an ESD-preventive pad until it's done. I'll post pics once it's done, but for now, here's the basic image to give you guys an idea:

First you idiots...

Short of melting the CPU/socket intel has NO way to know the chip was OCed (with in reason... 2V is not gona fly)

Nothing was voided (yep they say it but again they can't tell unless you are really dumb)

Shorten the life? tl aint gona explain NO so long as you stay with in the max temp/voltage pretty much nope... but hey go over to overclock.net and tell all those guys their cpus are gona daiiiiiiii i am sure they would be glad to know (lol)

Next... go google some ram speed benches... this aint a APU... ram speed from 1600 to 2600 might show 2-3 FPS gains (with in error)

On topic


Case:NZXT Zero (first one)
CPU: i7 875k (OC to 4.0 btw tell world of tanks who maxs a core out at 4.0 it is pointless to OC)
Mainboard: EVGA p55 e655 SLI
PSU: PCP&C 750watt quad (one of the best psus ever made)
GPU: Evga 470, @ 700mhz core and BFG 9800gt (3ed screen for tv/movies/web pages while in eve)
RAM: 16 gig corsair/gskill @ 1444 (dde3 durrr)
Hard drives: 2x WD blacks 1 seagate (1tb 1tb, 500G)
Monitor: 2x 23.6 asus vs247h-p 1x 17inch tell MVA pannel lcd.
CPU cooler: primotech megahalem with 3x (push pull exhaust) scythe something fans...

Also wtf fail pc here a 1155 with a h77 board with a gt640 for 1 grand?

Wtf? z68
better gpu for the love of god

The whole point of h77 is using the IGUP... yet you have a GPU... so wtf? P or z then.

I mean whatever to each his own but really wtf is the point of a IGPU board when you have a DGPU?

Like I said, mine is a themed mod. It's not superb, but I enjoy it.

Regarding why use an external GPU with a board with an integrated one? Two reasons:
1) the external allows me to use two DVI monitors, and I can set the integrated one to work with the external for more processing power.
2) If I ever sell the computer, I can remove the vid card and use it in an older system for the kids.

Agreed. Overclocking doesn't kill a CPU. I ran a K6-2 350 at 550 Mhz with watercooling for probably five years before deciding it was obsolete, stripping it down, putting it back to its default clock, and giving it to my grandfather. He STILL plays solitaire on it. It's been through three dead hard drives, two power supplies, and a set of RAM.
