 Topic: Arrival of my New Gaming RigPosted: 04 Jun 2011 at 3:32pm |
|
My computer arrived before I got home from work yesterday, and oh what a way to start the weekend =). My signature has the specs, will get pictures soon, but since I ordered it with black tubing, not really much to see =). Made through shipping with the only damage being to the plexiglass door, which was scraped up a little. Still getting organized, but system is awesome.

 Here are the pics. Not a lot to show, I ordered black tubing and no led lights. Computer is named "Midnight Shadows", after my two cats.

Sweet system.
 You should do some benchmarks on that thing. Kinda want to see what type of killer performance you get out of that thing.  |

NICE
The plastic protection wrap in the last image confused me for a moment, I thought your case was all banged up  That's a killer rig you've got on your hands! |

You should create a new thread with a full review, and with the plastic removed.

Try running the free version of Unigine Heaven for starters. I really don't care to spend money on benchmarking software

Unfortunately my camera is not working for some reason at this time =( So these pics will have to do for a while =) Ran the unigine heaven benchmark, of course now I cannot find where I saved the files, supposedly to my desktop ... *sigh*. Was with all the bells and whistles on, 1920 x 1080, 57.1 fps, max 146.4 and min 33.7, best I can do at this time =(
Thanks alot for a great system DSO, the machine rocks! |
