The GPUs are 670s. I'm about to see just how badly the 2GB VRAM screws me in Fallout 4.
Here's mine Op just built it a little while ago.
>>51312811

>>51312060
It's also designed for water cooling, with easy mounting points for a reservoir, pump, and radiators. Why are you using it wrong?

Without getting into the apparent vintage of the components...
Top-mounted, non-modular PSU, missing PCIe backplates, too many optical drives that don't match the colour scheme, little to no cable management.
>>51312625
>>51313114
Or AGP/PCI backplates, whatever.
>>51313114
>top mounted case
It came from a 2004-2005 system. (which weird enough it had a Socket A motherboard) I upgraded most of the stuff ever since I got it.
>non modular PSU
That's so retarded it's actually ridiculous,considering what it powers.
>too many optical drives
Because muh storage. (even though I have a 80GB HDD in there)
>little to no cable management.
Cables are too short.
Also,the backplates were already missing ever since I've got the case. There used to be an generic RTL8139 NIC and a CMI8738-based PCI audio card. As for the original GPU it had - an 128MB Palit FX5200 which was flashed with a MSI BIOS to allow TV output.
>>51313258
You asked why I gave you a 4/10, no need to justify it, I'm just looking at the system from a primarily aesthetic viewpoint which is what this should all be about.
And no adding liquid loops and LEDs to everything doesn't make me give something a 10/10.
>>51313055
hows the card? im thinking on getting the 280x Vapor-X too

>>51313324

Also,I'm quite sure you gave 4/10 because of also being vintage.

In the case of the IDE cable, that's true. But that's why I said >primarily
>>51313378
Don't get mad because someone gave your shitbox a low rating.
He was generous anyway. I'd give it a 3/10.
>>51313363
probably my favorite in every thread, I love how tight everything fits in there while still keeping cool and color coordinated. I have the mini itx posted above you but I want your rig just because its so aesthetically pleasing inside and out
>>51313409
>In the case of the IDE cables
Fixed,because I have 2 of them. One for DVD,one for the HDD.
>>51313428
Meh,it's not my daily system (retro stuff is what it's aimed at) so I could let it be as you say.
Pic related is the system I use everyday. Protip:It's not a Raidmax case.

>>51312134 here, your build is now my favourite. 3cute5me
>>51313460
OH GOD NOT YOU
>>51313465
thanks, your cooler being so close to the gpu gives me anxiety though. Can we get a close up pic of that clearance?
>>51313431
Thanks anon! Everything ended up fitting like a glove miraculously. I honestly lucked out with the GPU fitting as perfectly as it does. It's almost like they were made for each other. I've done a bit more cable management work, but I forgot to take pics last time I opened it up to fiddle around. Yours is honestly one of my top favorites. The portability must be wonderful.
>>51313491
Why yes it's me.
>>51313577
Post more pics. For the love of RMS please.
hi
>>51313549
Barely get away with it. Like how the flash shows dust building up already ;_;
>>51313592
That's all I have at this moment.
I do have a pic of the guts. The PSU is a FSP300-60GTP,which I later sold and replaced with a old sturdy modded L&C LC-B400ATX.
>>51313641
Also brb while I fix my fan.
dont h8 on the foam
>>51313574
Mine could use a bit of cable work as well but its alright for what I had on hand. I'm still waiting on some RGB leds from china but when I install those I'll clean up a bit and take new pics. What camera do you use by the way?
>>51313623
I like your build but I'm curious what the load temps are like. You should add pics of the case closed as well
>>51313344
Love it so far!!
Wanted a 290 but the 290 and 280x we're sold out on newegg canada , bought it from tigerdirect. They didnt specify about backplate and sadly mine dont have one.
Its the only deception i had since i was aiming for the whole black and blue guts.
No driver issue , easy install. The card is always cool and quiet. The thing is huge make sure your case is ready for it.
>>51313711
Just my Galaxy S5. It's pretty meh unless you have a lot of natural light, hence the outside guts pics. (but even then still Meh)

>>51315896
>PCIE3 8x is still more than enough bandwidth for a 980Ti
lol
>>51315924
It is, I have mine on an 8x slot and the performance difference at 4k isn't even 1% compared to when it was on the 16x slot.
>>51315718
I think id rather have my pcie lanes for my other 980ti. Under 5 second boot time is plenty fast for me. I have enough hard drives. Heres another of the portable orange box
>>51315953
Then why not use a regular SATA 850 EVO that has slightly better random 4k read performance? You're wasting two SATA ports with that M.2 in place for no performance gain.
>>51315950
More like 5%
Which is massive

I'm seeing a lot of closed-loop Corsair water coolers here, are these generally accepted and approved by /g/ now? Last time I was here closed loop systems were considered a joke.
I also asked in /sqt/, but I figure I'm more likely to get an answer here.
Anyone willing to give me a rundown of what I should look for in a HDD?
>>51322094
If it's not wd it's shit
>>51322119
Stow the fanboyisms. Western Digital, Seagate, HGST, and Samsung all make good drives.
>>51322094
Pick one of the above brands with the size and spindle speed that you want. Buy it. /lesson
>>51318402
*Howls*
>>51322147
Is that really it? Does cache size affect nothing?
Someone told me it's better to get, for example, two 2TB drives and RAID them rather than getting one 4TB drive.
Am I just overthinking this whole process?
>>51322063
I bought mine because of case and RAM height limitations. I like being able to easily control fan speed from Corsair Link, even if the software is a piece of shit. I know it's a meme that doesn't offer better performance over a proper air cooler but the fan control is less shitty than other solutions.
I am interested in EKWB's new CLC cooler. It seems to offer great performance, even if it's huge and expensive.
>>51322419
It doesn't affect it enough to matter, no. If you're looking for the fastest drive you can get, you're not going to be looking at spinning platters anyways. A pair of 2TB drives in RAID 0 would match the space of a single 4TB drive and blow it away in performance, but that comes with it's own drawbacks. The most apparent one is that it'll be more expensive. Less obvious is the fact that if a single drive in a RAID 0 array fails, the data on the entire array has been lost. Because you're now depending on two drives not to fail, the projected failure rate of your array is roughly twice as high as that of a single drive. And on top of that, it still won't be as fast as a good SSD.
>>51322477
>EKWB's new CLC cooler
Do it, but try to get the 360mm Predator for the quick disconnect hose. The kit is amazing and is a pretty good first step into building your own loop.
>>51322477
You know what's a better solution for fan control than Corsair Link? Plugging the fans into your motherboard's CPU Fan headers. Most boards have two now, and all of the good ones have a fan control program that is at the very least passable.
Also, EKWB doesn't make a CLC. That stands for Closed Loop Cooler. The Predator is a preassembled, prefilled system made with standard, off the shelf water cooling components that allows you to disassemble, modify, and expand the system as needed or desired.
>>51322550
Yeah, I know about SpeedFan and FanXpert, never tried the former, tried the latter and thought it was shit. Most of ASUS' software I've tried has been awful.
>CLC cooler
>close loop cooler cooler
fuck, I see what I did there. I need some sleep.
That's pretty cool that EKWB's cooler isn't closed, but I'm not planning on buying a new cooler until my H100i craps out, and when I do, it'll be a Noctua tower.
I'd be happier with it if Corsair would open source Corsair Link or their drivers. I remember they mentioned doing something like that for their RGB products but never followed it.
>>51322674
What made fanxpert shit? I mean it works
>>51322674
what mobo do you have?
my rig here >>51312811 is controlled with bios level fanxpert/qfan. it's got 8 fans total and they automatically spin up individually based on cpu temp without relying on any os level software.
i agree it's fucking shit to use because sometimes it doesn't detect the fans during tuning but after it's done tuning it works amazingly, works much better than any dedicated fan controller.
>>51322816
>>51322690
I'm going to be honest, I haven't used it in about a year so I don't remember much specifically other than that it wasn't easy to do what I wanted to with my fans. It's probably better than I give it credit.
>>51322817
My rig >>51320073
I don't use bios fan control because I change fan speed depending on what I'm doing. If I'm at the desktop it's quiet mode, playing a more demanding game I bump it up. Some games, like Source games, are easy enough to run I can leave it on quiet and my CPU temp isn't really affected. I'm a little more sensitive to fan noise since I use open headphones and don't want to hear fans in the background. Corsair Link is just the easiest way I've found to do this with my configuration.

Is it possible to make a Define R5 look good?
Having no backplate behind the drive bays is a really poor choice, makes the whole thing look extremely empty.
