Post A Pic Of Your Pc Here :)

Well, I havn't been on here for ages, so here's my PC.

Its now a fairly 'cheap' system as my other passion is music and I'm spending every penny I own on CD's at the moment..

E2200 @ 3.3Ghz, 2Gb 8500 Corsair Dominator, DFI DK P35-2TRS (best mobo ever!), X1800 XT, 520W Corsair, LG DVD, Hitachi 160Gb internal + WD 500Gb External, Noiseblocker XL2's @ 7.5v, custon 1/2" watercooling, Dell e248FWP + Viewsonic VX922, Logitech VX revolution and a Saitek eclipse.

ohh very nice,whats your gfx card?

 

[Mankz_91]

2 year old Connect3d X1800 XT 256Mb with an EK full cover waterblock. I think I need to upgrade it

 

[Shane]

nice overclock mate,whats your cpu temps idle?

 

[Mankz_91]

@ 3.3Ghz, 23~24*C and highest i've seen under load is ~ 32* after 4 hours of COD4. GPU has never hit 40* either.

 

[Shane]

wow thats great,i never realy thought about water cooling because just incase it leaks you know.

 

[Mankz_91]

I've had it for two years now and no leaks. Aslong as you're careful and precise and test properly, its hard to get it wrong.

awesome,I seen this vid on youtube where his liquid cooler leaked from the cpu on to his 7800GTX in SLI i think and his sound card.

completly ruined them

Thats a very bad set-up though, using the rather dubious Coolermaster kit.

 

[funkysnair]

whats the matter with coolermaster? i heard the same about mine thermaltake-

 

[Mankz_91]

Coolermaster and thermaltake and the like watercooling kits are know for weak pumps, inefficant rads, bad cpu blocks and small tubing. I have and allways will swear by 'choose your own kits' and make sure you get good parts. Laing pumps, Black ice or thermochill rads, D-Tek, Ek or Danger Den blocks.

Buying a water cooling kit is like buying a pre built PC. So you build your own.
