What do you plan to do on this desktop? Rule the world?

[sol740]

Looks like a fun day.

[dragknee66]

Take over the worlds yes.

I just havent had a nice desktop in a long time so I figured what the hek.

Maybe do some web design and part of the infinite fixes when people ask me to fix their shit all month long.

Thats my office son

I love waiting to upgrade for a while - makes the new toys so much more enjoyable. Nice monitor setup too.

 

I went from an 800 MHz processor / 1GB ram to a 3.06 GHz / 4GB... and I felt like I was the king of the world.

All of that just for you to watch gay porn?

It was a cheap full tower with good air flow.

Only reason I picked it

HSF is Heatsink and Fan

Let me know if you do. I just converted my rarely-on server from water to air, may do the same with my gaming rig. Would need to see if there's a clamp (cheap) or water block (pricey) for the i7 though.

+1. I made that mistake years ago, on my first-ever setup. I went with the largest heatsink/fan duo that I could find. The combination of the weight of it with the heat from the cpu caused the top mounting washers and screws on the mobo to squeeze and crack. Good airflow and an efficient hsf is the only thing you need if you go air-cooling over liquid.

[Mr. Jones]

Go water cooling.

After the initial investment it is no more expensive than air.

IE: When I went I7 I stopped by MC and picked up a new DD TDX block from MC for like $50 bux.

Yep. The stock cooler and a good breeze across the case will get you pretty far, even in overclocking.
