Share your computer rig

Here's my new rig. It's mostly new parts. PSU/Drives are from my previous build.

Recently Built this to replace my old PC. Video will get upgraded at some point, maybe ram too depending on how it is going at the time. i'd also like to get a new monitor... maybe a 30" but i want an IPS with LED backlight :(

Old PC was:

Antec P182 Gunmetal

Intel Q6600 2.4Ghz @ 3.4GHz

8GB G-Skill

Geforce 8800 GTS (g92) 512MB replaced with the 560Ti when it died (was awesome up until then)

Abit IP35 Pro MOBO

Crosair HX 620W Modular PSU

Seagate Barracuda 500GB (the one that had that iffy firmware that would just eat your drive)

Vista Ultimate when purchased upgraded to win7 ultimate later

not sure what i'll do with the old PC yet, i already have a small atom based NAS.

MoBo: Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H

CPU: Intel i5-3570k 3.4ghz Quad (with Cooler Master Hyper212 Plus heatsink)

HDD: 2tb Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm internal, 2tb WD Elements external, 600gb WD internal converted to external (from previous PC)

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8gb 1600

PSU: Corsair HX 750 watt modular

GPU: Gigabyte 560 ti 1gb

Mouse: Logitech G400

Keyboard: 20$ logitech classic (on its last legs)

Case: Corsair Carbide 500R

It's not custom obviously, but it's probably the coolest laptop I have ever seen. Really glad I managed to snag one in February. Keep in mind this is a laptop/tablet hybrid.

• Core i5 3317U
• 8GB RAM
• Intel HD 4000
• 128GB SSD, 64GB SD card inserted
• Windows 8
• Folding screen

Don't know the nitty gritty as It's not something you can build yourself, but it's extremely competent for a tablet hybrid. It serves my purposes well. I can play Guild Wars 2 on medium with no problems and games like SSFIVAE run blisteringly fast. Obviously not using this for graphically intensive FPS games because I mainly purchased it for school, but it's capabilities are nice and Windows 8 is a blast to use on it because of the touch screen. Could not be more satisfied with a laptop.

Built mine in 2011, just after the LGA1155 socket CPUs came out :)

CPU: i5 2500k @ 4.2 Ghz with Zalman CNPS 9700 LED cooler

Mobo: MSI P67A-GD65

Ram: 8 GB Corsair Vengeance

Video: MSI GTX 570 with phat GTX 480 hotplate (this was a surprise when I opened it, kinda cool though)

Sound: Asus Xonar Essence ST with Audio Technica ATH-M50 Professional Monitor Headphones

Storage: Crucial m4 128 GB SSD with Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB 7200 RPM and Western Digital Caviar Green 2 TB 5400 RPM + Samsung Blu Ray optical

PSU: Enermax Modu82+ 625 watt modular Power Supply (very quiet)

Display: Benq 24' backlit LED (next upgrade will be 27' 120 Hz screen)

Input: Razer Lycosa Keyboard, Razer Death Adder mouse, Razer Sphex mouse mat

OS: Windows 8 (yes it's faster and more stable than Windows 7, move on people)

Here's a pic showing the Lian Li PC-7FNW case with lights :)

Not built yet but ordered the parts from Newegg today.

CPU: AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo)

Case: Cooler Master HAF X Blue Edition

Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth 990FX/GEN3 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD

Memory: Mushkin Enhanced Redline 16GB DDR3 1866

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB

PSU: Corsair CX750M 750W

My laptop spec

Product Name: AFTERSHOCK X17

• Central Processing Unit : 3rd Generation Intel® Ivy Bridge Core™i7-3940XM
• Graphics Card : NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 680M 4GB DDR5 with Optimus Technology
• Memory (RAM) : 32GB DDR3 1600MHZ (4X8)
• Hard Drive : 120GB Samsung 840 SSD
• Second Hard Drive : Western Digital Scorpio Black 750GB 7200 RPM
• Optical Disk Drive : 8 x DVD ± R/RW/4X +DL Super Multi Drive & Software

Its super ridiculous with this kind of specs i still can't play witcher 2 on ultra settings with ubersampling on smoothly.....

This build is coming up on a year now. The only[0] major thing I'm itching to upgrade is the graphics card, when the next generation comes along later this year.

Best build I've ever done. I love that case. It's small enough that it's not hulking, but large enough that you can actually get a decent graphics card and a bit of storage in there. I'm never going back to anything larger than mATX.

([0] I actually bought 4x8GB RAM to upgrade, but when I realized I'd have to remove the GPU to get access I couldn't be botherhed. Why mess with something that works? Also, laziness :-)

Will be throwing an i7 4770K in my machine this week on a new Asus P87 Deluxe, even sprung for some 2400mhz memory since I'm moving from triple channel to dual. Will be nice to let my 680's breath since all of my multi GPU setups have been sandwiched up against each other one the old i7 920 machine. Also going to be modifying my water loop to make it a little shorter by using one of those XSPC 5.25" Bay reservoirs with the integrated mount for a D5, should be a little less cluttered in there as a result.

@korwin: Please post pics when you are done if possible, sir!

Hmmm forum doesn't take kindly to my image links you'll have to click through

Haven't got around to fiddling with the clock speeds yet, had some problematic SSD/SATA detection issues to overcome which took some time.

@korwin: Thanks for sharing, sir! Great cable management! What case are you using by the way?

@shiseiten: you have a mobile graphics card... most high-end DESKTOP graphics cards can't handle ubersampling in that game.

I'm new here, so I figured I'd start somewhere and post up my rig. I'll be upgrading the GPU here soon and eventually get a cooling system as well as SSD and Blu-Ray drive.

Mobo: ASUS P8Z77-V

CPU: Intel i5-3570K

RAM: 8GB (2x4GB) PNY XLR8 PC3-12800 1600mHz

Case: Diablotek Epic

PSU: Raidmax 700W Continuous

OS: Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit

Here is my current rig, no reason for me to upgrade this year once again.

Wifes Rig

It's a Corsair Obsidian 800D

Yeah definitely no reason for you to upgrade. That's a VERY solid rig man. I'm impressed.

@shiseiten: Your problem is the 680M. Mobile graphics cards are not nearly as powerful as their dedicated counterparts. A 680M is roughly as powerful as an HD7850 or a GTX570. Reference this Tom's Hardware Chart: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html.

Unfortunately you can't really use any kind of super sampling feature on current tech laptops. But the bright side is that ubersampling doesn't do too much to enhance the visuals, it just massacres frame rates. If you turn it off you can expect near 60fps with your laptop if not better.

Just built a new PC. Finally decided to retry AMD products for the first time since my Athlon64 I used to have.

How do you like your 8350? I've had mine for about a week now and have been having some issues with BSoD's (different reasons each time though). One BSoD was from a clock watchdog timeout or something which I found out meant one of the cores stopped responding. Anything like that?

Just put this together a week ago.

Thing I'm most proud of is how the thing looks all together with the Afterglow 360 pad I got:

Here is mine. Built it a little less than 2 years ago and just upgraded the video card and added memory. Not sure if I should upgrade my CPU yet? I haven't OCed it. Should I? SSD?

@tiefighter77: that CPU should last for a while. Haswell isn't a big improvement over Sandy for gaming, so you've still got one of the best CPUs for that.

This is my Haswell build

I'll be upgrading bit by bit in a few months. Just replied to a guy who has the same CPU at 4.5ghz!!

Sheesh!

@cloudnineboya: Fake as in pc's don't us GDDR5 as system RAM, i could've worded it differently, oh well.

@war_machine: fair enough, nice setup you got. but why is there a motherboard on your wall, is it art?.

@cloudnineboya: Its a spare, just thought it looked cool up there.
