my first build

[tommycompton]

here' my first rig, i take great pride in my wire management, it was no easy fit in this case, but here it is.

not bad if i say so my self ! Good job m8y ! and for ya 1st build that awesome

is the galixy a good water cooling system for the price???

good wire management---

 

[tommycompton]

yeah i like it, i idle at around 29c and i've never seen it hit 40 with a 10% overclock. with lots of room to oc. with this kit you see the biggest gains underload. i know a lot dislike prebuilt systems, but i'm a noobie and i did lots of research on various kits and i found nothing but good reviews on this one. the pump has a good flow rate so i could expand if i wish to liquid cool my gpu's and install another rad. the mofset fan is an awsome bonus, keeps the mobo temps down and offers good cooling for the north and southbridge.
i'd buy it again.

 

[Mankz_91]

it seems like quite a good n00b water-cooling system...

still nothing beats american 1/2"

good work though/

 

[tommycompton]

oh ya forgot to mention this too is a 1/2" system

umm..it looks like your harddrive is gonna fall out

hahaha i know, i mounted them in in reverse, and the wasn't any room to seat it in further. i had to offset my hd's to keep my dual 80mm fans in the front, plus my graffics cards are massive forcing me to also offset my hd's. in hindsight i wish i bought a slightly larger case. perhaps one day i will and swap my 3400+ old faithfull into this one.

how about some 3dmark06 score?

 

[tommycompton]

my 06 score is 8435, i figure when i oc some more i can reach 10000 t0 12000.

 

[DKdeadly]

[JSquier]

Very nice setup. Any idea how much you have in her? Or do you even want to think about it

 

[DKdeadly]

What?

yeah i try not to think about it, i got probably over 4g's sunk into it.

 

[JSquier]

ouch, yea, I think the wife would kill me. I think I have about a grand or so in mine and I'll be lucky if I could do much more then that

 

[tommycompton]

[Mankz_91]
