Hello, I'd like to have some opinions about the PC build I'm thinking on gettingI'm quite sure It's a pretty good build, yet I'd like to know if there are some changes you would recommend, without damaging much the current price (2400)Here is the current specification: CASE: ANTEC TWELVE HUNDREDCPU: INTEL CORE I7-2600K 3.4GHZ SANDY BRIDGECOOLER: CORSAIR HYDRO SERIES H70MOTHERBOARD: ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME R.3.0RAM: G.SKILL 8GB DDR3 2000MHZ RIPJAWSGPU: XFX HD6990 4GB GDDR5DISCS: OCZ VERTEX 3 SSD 120GB /// WESTERN DIGITAL BLACK 2TB SATA IIIPSU: Coolermaster Silent Pro Gold 1200W Thanks in advance!Cheers, VatananP.SI'm thinking about overclocking the CPU to somewhere between 4.5/5.5GHz and I plan on running the machine on air.
I put shiny out, but I don't think it matters.
It doesn't matterDatgirl8 is exactly rightIt is from the manufacturing processNow exactly how much time do you have on your hands?
Shiny side reflects heat so put the shiney side IN.
Properties Decorative aluminium foilsAluminium foil typically has a highly reflective side and a more matte sideThis is a result of common manufacturing processesAs aluminium foil is easy to tear, the foil is sent through machines in pairsThe side where the aluminium foil was in contact with the other sheet is more matte than the exterior sideThis unconformity of finish has led to the perception that favoring a side has an effect when cookingWhile many believe that the shiny side's reflective properties keep heat in when wrapped on the interior and keep heat out when facing exterior, the actual difference is imperceptible without instrumentation.[citation needed]
Ya, that all looks goodDouble check the Ram and make sure it's compatible with the motherboardYes it will probably work but when you start over clocking you are going to want to make sure that the ram you buy is listed as approved on ASUS' websiteAlso, consider 2 60 gig SSD in raid 0 for double the performance of read/writeAnd, you are not going over 4.0 may be 4.2 on airNot a chance you are going to 5.5Corsair hydro cooler works good without all the hassles of water cooling Personally, I would wait for the AMD to release their bulldozerIt's going to be 50% faster than the sandy bridge.
