This is my first build EVER! I'm really excited about it and I couldn't wait until I got pictures to post here. Hopefully I'll get them if I have time between Oblivion and BF2.
C2D E6300 (soon to be overclocked to 3~3.2GHz)
eVGA 680i Mobo
eVGA 8800GTS
Kingston HyperX DDR2 800
2 x (RAID 0) WD Caviar 250GB (Set up raid by myself!)
Arctic Cooler 7 Pro
Thermaltake Xaser III ATX Full tower (7 fans, makes my old computer sound like a jet taking off)
Antec TP3 650W PSU
This thing's a beast! I'm still a newbie but my old rig scored a miserable 8,968 on Aquamark 3, this thing scored +107,000 without CPU overclock (as you can see, I was in serious need for a massive upgrade). Downloaded 3DMark 05 but It wouldn't install, I'll try again soon. It ran Oblivion 12x10, HDR, full settings with only small blips when outside, I think the CPU is the bottleneck here and should solve the problem after overclocking. Tell me what you think!
