Notes

This is my 5th build since 2005. Its not bad for the money I spent and it took me a while to save up. Its not as flashy as some peoples ultimate rigs but if I were rich well id be there too :) I ordered off Newegg and basically got what I wanted that appealed to me at the time. I saw some better stuff at other sites but I just wanted it to all come together. I just put this thing together so it will be a few before I got the OC tight and ram timings. Ill update this later. Thanks for looking and for +1 (;

Update 2015.. Got a GTX 970 for this baby.. have not updated bench marks in a while though...

Thanks guys!!!!! cable management yes I agree, I need a new psu before I can really do much more. Dusty?? maybe now 5 months later but those pics were taken on day 1 of the build and everything was new so there is no dust there lol.. Maybe just poor photo quality after uploading, I dunno......

Cool! The new H80i. In some tests it outperforms my H100 (but I have p-p fans!). +1
