No, I need more monitors, storage, and a custom loop.  But before that I need more money.

 

Only then will I truly be satisfied.

More than. It runs everything at playable frame rates. (Over 60) Even if some games need a tweak in the settings and is whisper quiet. Only thing that could be better is if I had a 970 and a Define R5.

in a word, no.

 

Because,

 

1. I need a GPU

2. I need another fan

3. I need a CPU cooler

4. I need a decent monitor (anything besides my Dell CRT)

 

and thats about all that i need...

 

Oh, and 4 more GBs of ram. ;)

My main rig, no. I went m-ITX with the intention of getting a dual GPU card for Star Citizen, but the Titan Z is a big fat joke, the GTX 760 MARS only has a paltry 2GB of VRAM and the R9 295x2 launched too expensively, and I'm an air cooling purist.

 

I am getting increasingly pissed off at the situation really.

 

GPU aside though, it's a great build, really hit the silicone lottery jackpot with a 3570K that does 5.06Ghz (though I run it at 4.8Ghz, temps around 60c full load on air and feeding it 1.28v)

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Yep.  I got most of the stuff in my rig at great prices, and it dominates 1080P gaming. My first GPU was a christmas present and my second was 40% off :P

 

Very satisfied with my build :D

Because there are so many ways you can upgrade a pc and new parts constantly coming out, it seems like the desire to update your build is always there. Or at least that's how I feel. Its one of the best things (or worst) about being a PC gamer.

The older I get the less I seem to care about upgrading my PC as often.

 

My current system plays games just fine at 1080p, besides the types of games that I've been playing recently could run practically on any system, so I cant justify an upgrade.

Not really. I despise my case choice. It's so, well big...

I have one GPU and an ATX motherboard, I do not need an XL Tower.

For some reason I bought it anyways *facepalm*

 

I'm looking to get a white Corsair 760t, blue/white motherboard/GPU an H220X for my Frozen themed build.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)
