A Scottish worklong of sorts

[Trotter]

A clanmate of mine, basically the founder, has been building a new monster.

Here's a little of what's in it...

I have a i980 cpu, Asus rampage extreme 3 motherboard, 590GTX Asus GFX, 24GB Corsair 2000MHZ ram, total of 1750 watts of power from 2 PSUs.

SSD's, 2 Crucial 4m 128GB

Anyway, here's some shots from his build.













His thread on the build can be found here.

That thing is gigantic in both size and power 24 GB RAM, man.

I don't like how he's got his drives setup at all, dunno why he spent all that money then went with the crucial SSDs.
Apart from that and the needlessly massive 24GB ram, awesome build lol. Dual 590's, me gusta.

edit: ALSO what no watercooling??? Gotta have it if you've got a 980x

He's using the stock cooler and only a single 590.


I like that monitor stand.

Well that's a darn weird rig then if I do say so meself

Yha sweet setup, but overkill for gaming... The M.Mods cases are crazy, you can use it as a table.

 

[PP Mguire]

There is no such thing as overkill. He obviously can't OC without it burning up and blowing up.

 

[Slaymate]

It looks like a massive waste of money to me. He should of came here and posted his budget.

For sure. I didn't know he was building it until he posted the thread.
