Finally gone back(i mean forward) to a PC!
-
You don't need the i7 and the gpu, I will send you my post address... I will dispose it for you. No problem, you're welcome.
-
is windows 10 out yet or still in beta? looks pretty good from what I've seen so far
-
Not yet.
-
Cool! You can now access to marvelous programs!
-
Nice setup... Make sure to tell us how it feels.
-
Oh, looking down the bill I understand how some get to buy all these goodies. Lucky guys !
-
You should see the heat sink I installed. It's comedy how big it is. Lots of head-scratching to see how it was mounted though.
Thanks for changing the thread title Rich....you made me laugh!
All systems go! This thing's a beast. And only took a couple of hours to build. Up yours Apple!
-
You should have gone with an enclosed liquid cooling system. only about $50...

then i'm suddenly reminded of one of the turnoffs in PC culture
these things are computers guys.. not race cars.
-
Yours might not be a racecar... Mine is a classic sports car. It's old and doesn't handle corners well, but it's loud and it looks good.
-
haha. nice
-
enclosed liquid cooling? sounds sexy! haha I just asked for a setup that works, if I needed it the guy would have specified it. The machine is almost silent, its a big step up from my iMac!

heh, the latest macbooks are a big step up from a 7year old imac
(i'm just ribbing.. congrats on the new machine oli.)
-
Enjoy the new machine!
I had a super machine with liquid cooling before, it's great but worrying about springing a leak got to me after about 18 months, back to (good) air cooling after that. Now moved onto beefier laptop rather than HULK desktop, suits my needs fine at the moment. I still have two workstations at home that I can use to network render whenever I require.
-
Haha yeah I know. I've been rocking a dual core for far too long!! A Raspberry Pi is probably more powerful!
I did have a macbook pro that seemed to have built-in planned obsolescence. One day everything just broke and I really looked after it. I'm done with Apple.

Welcome back to the PC Master Race
-
Thanks! Feels good to be back.
Can't wait to press Control Alt Delete!

-
