New gaming rig
EHM-0654 Murray:
Right, time to dig this thread up again.
Second "pre-loved" mobo was also a #FAIL, so I've been scrimping and saving, and making a list of components, and I'm almost ready to order (just waiting for pay day).
Here's my Google Docs spreadsheet with the components list but the highlights for those that can't/won't look at it - separate water cooling loops for CPU and RAM/GPU, Intel Core i7 2600K (which will be 'clocked to 4GHz), Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD7-B3 mobo and EVGA GeForce GTX 580 SC.
Lots of bits not listed, because lots of bits I already have.
EHM-1997 Alexander:
You can clock to 4.6 on air.
lower tier mobo (same manufac) pre-clocked air kit.

EHM-0654 Murray:
OCUK have way more experience clocking than I do, so if I can get to 4+, I'll be happy. Plus, I want it still running in years ahead...
EHM-0654 Murray:
*SO* EXCITED!!!!! ;D
Just spent close to £1,000 ordering most of the stuff on my pick-list (CPU, GPU, Mobo, SSD and part of the WC bits). Will arrive (at work) on Monday, so must remember to take my big rucksack with me.
EHM-1997 Alexander:
great feeling isn't it ;D Your rig will rock.
I have a little something in the post for me now too.
Will announce what when I get it.
