Topic: Home system completed!! (PICS!!!) Posted: 05 Dec 2009 at 6:08pm |
This is my first rig. I love this new system, lol. It's so awesome, it's such a beast! Took a long time to build though, almost a month (spent a week trying to diagnose problems, only to find out i got shipped a dead motherboard. i waited until black friday to get windows 7 for $109 and that took about 5 days to get. there were other minor issues but I won't bore you guys with those.)
SPECS: i5 750 Corsair h50 Cooler Asus P7P55d PRO XFX Geforce GTX 260 Mushkin Silverline 6GB (3 x 2) Seagate Barracuda 750GB Lightscribe Blu-ray Cooler Master Silent Pro 700w HAF 922 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit And now my journey with pics!: Well, I had received the first round of my stuff on a Friday, during the Nor'Eastern that hit my area really hard; first initial pics of the boxed up goods: After I had gotten everything out of the big boxes: This is the bare chassis. This thing is MASSIVE, i thought maybe I should make it my new bed instead of housing all my components in it (and to think I was going to get the HAF 932, lol): At this point, I put it together, and it wouldn't boot up. I spent nearly a week trying to diagnose the problem, only to find out that I got shipped a dead motherboard. I got an upgrade to the P7P55D PRO (before it was just a regular p7p55d). This is the only pic I have with the regular P7P55D: All of these pics are my completed system with the specs listed earlier in the post: Now for a little comparison!: Now, I only have had the system for about 3 days and I haven't really got around to benchmarking and overclocking so temps at this point would be kinda useless. But I'll promise to those things to you guys when I can. ;) Edited by InfiniteWorries - 05 Dec 2009 at 6:08pm |
