My Summer Project

[Quadrider10]

I know you all are going to yell at me for this, but whatever, I had the money and I wanted to do something big for myself.

anyhoot, I built a brand new custom PC.

heres the vid:

here are my specs:


OS:
Windows 7 Professional x64

CPU:
AMD FX 4300 @ 4.2 GHZ

Motherboard:
ASUS M5A97 R2.0

Memory:
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB 1866mhz

Graphics Card:
EVGA GTX 660 2GB

Network Card:
Asus PCE-N15

Monitor(s) Displays:
20" Hanns-G HL203

Screen Resolution:
1600x900 60Hz

Keyboard:
Logitech K360 LE

Mouse:
Logitech G500

PSU:
Corsair CX500M

Case:
APEVIA X-DREAMER 4 BL

Cooling:
Stock

Hard Drives:
WD Caviar Black 500GB 7200RPM

Internet Speed:
60Mbps Down 8Mbps Up


im still planning on getting it water cooled via a corsair h60 or an Antec 620 water cooler. after that im then going to Overclock even more to 4.6 or 4.8GHZ

another upgrade im working at is a new FX 6350 or 8350 CPU. but that's later down the line.


I love computers and have been around computer since windows 95. since I was introduced to them, I constantly wanted to figure out how they worked. and ive always wanted to build one. so now I have. the computer is wicked fast. I primarily built it with gaming and video editing in mind. and it serves its job good.

So get another/better card...


Motorcross, you built a custom gaming computer, and only put 8gb ram in it? Seems supprising as i have seen people put 64gb ram into their custom computers I:I

I just got the logitech m510 and have no problems... Could it be your settings on the mouse? speed or tracer?

 

[Quadrider10]

ahh. thers no need for more RAM then 8gb. realistically even on higher resolutions then 1080p, 8gb is still fine. like ideally, 16gb is a awesome number, but playing all my games at once, then maybe ill use 8gb lol

i just RMA and then returned that mouse. since im running on a wifi adapter 300mbps and it caused interference between the mouse and the adapter. so i returned it for a logitech G500

I built my gaming computer a couple years ago. It's kind of mediocre...lol gts450 gfx card, AMD athlon 2 quad core (only 2mb l2 cache), yeah I need to upgrade! (16 gigs of RAM but it's the kingston blue stuff)

Fit a set of handlebars to that beast and you will have no problem clearing that long double jump.

Lol, you could put handlebars on the computer to move it 8-|

Never thought of that lol, but you would have to run a brace to the sides and/or bottom so you dont bend/break the top out

i just cant wait to get my water cooler. ill finally be able to play BF3 on all ULTRA highest settings. i think my CPU is bottle-necking my GPU.
