WAH NICE

post specs plz!

haha, new home as in specs i desire on my comp!

still deciding whether to buy the laptop or the desktop model

desktop means i can SLI, or crossfire the bastard

actually right, imho you can custom build a sic AMD system for $1k

AUD and get a decent notebook for travel

tried... custome build at MSY

whirlpool.net.au/wiki/rm...

intel i7 930, asus x58 motherboard

use one of the custom builds there

i dunno man, i would still go AMD

price came up to 2300 plus gst

get like a 955BE with a new 890Fx chipset mobo (AMD)

bad experience with AMD... always overheating

get like a proper cooler heatsink etc

liquid adi

i think the 930 x58 combo is like a bit more $$$

fan system with 4 output pipes

when was this?

yo ucould've RMAd your stuff man or din apply heatpaste stuff properly

$320 for the 930, $254 for like GA X58-ud3r .. what else was inyour build to top it over 2.3k? monitor?

320 for the 930??

just get like a lianli k62 case, 750 antec TP psu, 5850 1GB, 1GB WD Black, 6GB ram should just be under $2k w/o OS

nehh, took the thermaltake box

PSU was another 189

www.pccasegear.com/index...

8gb ram, one ssd, one sata 3.0

ssd mainly for OS and other critical applications

ooh SSD, i dont think its worth the price now le

get 6GB should be more than enough so u can use triple channel

but 2.3K was exp... that's why i looked at alienware

plus the RAM and HDD MSY quoted was a brand called Patriot

G Skill Patriot = good

no idea what fuck brand

no wait

he said it was the same as kingstons

ugh patriot = not as good

i mean i prefer my HDD's to come from WD

so for 2700, Alienware gave me the specs i love

well, its either i buy the comp, or go crazy and get meself the VW Tiguan = )

both are toys for men

aha

LOL

i'm just wondering what specs u have le

bad influence... everyone poisoning me to buy

i dont have the sheet with me now...

but the main parts were PSU, thermaltake, x58, crossfire (already 585 there)

8gb RAM, one SSD, one sata 3.0

the ddr 3 ram i think should be 1600

the SSD already $128 leh..

but its patriot

BTW - this is the best Kiwi ad to date!

checking the dell specs

i know alienwares are over priced

12K for a desktop (RM)

i so double dare you to crossfire 5970s LOL

siao

i'll need a dedicated aircon just for the box

hahaha

nvidia SLI 480

or crossfire 5770

480s dont match the power of 5970s

$$$$

lolyour power bill will shoot thru the roof

actually to be honest i heard 460s do a good job in the SLI department

yeh, it comes down to brand preference

ATI man, or Nvidia man

if u c/f 5770s might as well get a 5850

or c/fire nvidias 460s

yeh, either that or save PCI space

get the 1.5GB nvidia

cause if u run 1 more powerful card than 2 cards

1) save space, use les power even when in low usage environments, less heat etc etc

running out of PCI slots man

cant even fit a wireless card in...

but i think 1.5GB graphx card should suffice for now

lol

which card?

no game sucks that much graphics

not even crysis on super high quality mode

screw crisis, inefficiently coded stupid game

its just a good benchmark to see if your comp can support demanding BS

lol

i bet you if they used the tsubame to run a standard game of crysis it wouldnt even get 300 fps

5970... crossfire

i'll need at least 10PCI slots la

lol and water cool the damn thing

but seriously just one 460 is good enough dont need to spend too much on even a gaming box

4gb of dedicated graphics

1 x 5970 is like 2 x 5870s you know lol

so its lamost quad firing 5870s

uh huh... 5970 is 2gb

winter confirm noneed heater liao

yuea no kidding!

wonder what configs they use at cyber cafes here

5770s or something or even 5450s

go ask my mate this weekend

JOR DO MA TEH..... 2700 k for desktop alone. or desktop Plus monitor?

i'm still lovin my amd rig.

crossfire boards are damn cheap here. RM310 can get an asus crossfire board d
