Official Owner of a GTX 680 2GB

Yeap! Just bought me a EVGA GTX 680 2GB Sealed "Brand spanking New" from ebay. I Got a hot lick on it too.

I only paid $410 Shipped!

I was agreeing with you, but whatever. FYI, this isnt about you.




It's alot more then just 100MHz that you benefit from, but whatever.

FYI, I never made it about me. I was using me to refer to people in general.

I would say thats a good deal. The mouse pad alone cost $10+, so yeah, good deal.

EpicSurvivor, what did you decide to do with CPU?
I can report that CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo cooled my i5-3570K @ 4.224GHz and the maximum core reached 65C

I decided to stick with the 3770. Final

That is a good temp Jin. That right there proves those who say IVB gets too hot when OCed wrong.

Got all the Parts

Just bought all the parts last night from NewEgg. Below are my specs! Yes I decided for the i7 3770K!

The i7 3770k is 3,5ghz. And you got turbo on I think? So you can say @3,9ghz ;p.
and isn't it the v-lx as mobo? Bad mobo to oc.

Bad Mobo to OC? For the price it has some of the best reviews for OC. Anyway, I already ordered it and its coming in the mail nothing I can do now but hope that all those reviews are true.

I'm using a P8Z77-V LX with an i7-2600K running it at 4.8GHz with no problems. I agree that there are better motherboards when it comes to overclocking, but with OC Tuner (automatic overclocking) in the newest BIOS version I think it's outstanding for the price. There is an LK version as well, too.

Yea I only paid $110 for mine after Rebate. So I'm happy with it. I have never OC before but I'll be learning soon.
