First Rig =)

Because Retarded

Hey, I forgot to show off my rig and thought I just give it a go now.

 

I actually built it last december and I'm very proud of my self that I accomplished it with minimal help.

It's my first build and it isn't flawless, I know. I am guilty of making some stupid newbie mistakes.

 

So, my setup:

 

-MSI X99S Sli Plus

-i7 5820K (@4,2 ghz)

-Crucial Ballistix DDR4 16gb (4x4gb 2400 cl 16 xmp profile)

-Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Sli (@1501,6mhz)

-EVGA Supernova 850 G2

-Fractal Design Define R5 window black

-Be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3

-Be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm 3pin (4x)

-WD Red 3tb

-Sandisk Ultra SSD 240gb

 

Yes, a little overkill I know...

 

Some pictures are newer some older...

 It's big right? Big black and evil.  :wub:

 

Edit:

 

I recently finished a rig for a friend and thought why not putting it in here.

 

Specs:

 

-Msi Z97 Sli Krait

-i5 4690K

-Crucial Ballistix 8gb dual Kit

-KFA2/Galax GTX 970 EX OC Sli

-EVGA Supernova 850 G2

-NZXT Phantom 530

-Noctua NH-D14

-Be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm 3pin (5x)

-WD Green 3tb

-Kingston SSD now v.300 240gb

-Fractal Design 140mm Fan (1x)

 

It's a shame but I don't have any pictures of it fully assembled because we left the protection foil on it for transport.

We had to build it over my place because their whole house is carpeted, so not the best plase to thro some gpu's around.

out fucking standing, cant wait to sli, how are gpu temp?

Temps are fine. At first I had them in pcie1 16x 3.0 and pcie2 8x 3.0, temps where shitty tho.

The upper card reached 85°c in Furmark at stock. So I decided to hang the second card further down.

At first I was a little bit worried about the lower card, hanging right over the psu but it seems to be no problem at all.

While running Furmark I reach about 77°c on the lower gpu and around 84°c on the upper one.Not the best temps, I know but hey... it's fine. =)

I chose the wrong mainboard to be quite honestly because I have to run em' at 8x/8x now but hey. We all know performance loss is minor. 

The case wasn't the smartest decision as well but I'm already looking for an little bit bigger one.

Anyways; I've never seen temps going over 62° in games.
