  1. you should check out the Aerocool Aero-800 or Aero-500 iv done a few build for people in thees cases and have managed to fit some relay high spec equipment (including H100i water cooler) inside and make it so it still looks good. ;-) In the UK it cost from £30 - £40
  2. Honestly with the money your spending on quality parts to put in your rig now, you might find that you don't even care about any new processor release for a while as your PC will be running all the software you throw at it like a beast anyway althgh I totally understand where you are coming from! and I hope you are happy with your decision you make.

  4. I have a gigabyte GTX 1080 founders edition for the college now (still don't know how I managed to pull that off) and im looking at simply overclockingsoftware the card with GPU Boost 3.0 (automatically, don't have time at the moment to tinker with it manually) I see that there is an EVGA overclocking software to do this but is there anything else that I'm missing? (Other software) system: .maximus viii formula .I7-6700K .16GB 3000MHz .corsair H100i .250GB SSD .GTX 1080 founders edition .windows 10 pro 64bit Thanks and sorry if I take a some time to reply
  5. In Burnley UK. I know that there are cheaper cards that can run VR but the college has a 5 year life cycle so the car wont be upgraded for 5 years. I'm not at the college today so I cant give specifics on the hardware inside till tomorrow, but I know that it has a xeon processor clocked at 3.40Ghz 16GB of DDR3 although could be DDR4 (will have to check) I have tried calling dell and asking them if we could get the system upgraded but they told me they could not. :-( and before you say it i know the graphics will be VERY, VERY close to the hard drive cage
  6. So basically I am trying to integrate VR in to my college and so far i have got them to buy a HTC VIVE (should be arriving some time in June) Now I am trying to spec up some systems to run the head set and also for creating VR game (they will by used by our game programming course) the budget is kind of in the air at the moment so trying to make do with what we have so there is more chance that we will have more VR ready PC. So far we will be using the "Dell Precision T1700" for most of the parts then I have already bought: 1 CM V750 http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/enthusiast-v-series/v750/ and 1 GTX 1080 This is so we have at least one system ready for use when the VIVE arrives. But I am thinking of getting the board partner GTX 1080's for the rest of the systems (dont know witch one yet) and i am worried that they will over heat the system :-/ also let me add that i have gone with the CM V750 as the current system dose not support any bigger even though it is the biggest form-factor of the Dell Precision T1700. Will take some photos later today :-)
  7. ye thanks I guess your right there, (still carry handles would be nice) but looking to buy possible 20 or so case's maybe just a few to bigging with, so looking for stuff I can buy in bulk
  8. Hello All :-) I am struggling to fine a mid tower case that supports atx MB and has carrying handles for £50-£60 two factors that cannot change is the capability to fit a atx MB and the carry handles anything else is flexible. Any advise would be greatly appreciated so thanks in advance.
  9. Ok thanks everyone for your input! I have decided to buy some new PSU's
  10. Ok so if it's a single rail then the wattage may be high enough, ok makes sense thanks Cryptonite.
  11. Hmmm this is very interesting, I never realized that there was a watt limit on each rail. My dad actually uses a 2 Sata to 8 pin connector so will tell him to buy a proper PSU. Thanks for the comments this has already helped a lot! If I get another PSU are there any recommendations, after this upgrade it is very unlikely the systems will get another upgrade so bare minimum is ok.
  12. I have finally gotten VR in to the college and with that, we will be getting some GTX 1080's to install on some of our Dell xeon systems. Although the PSU's are Stock manufacture dell PSU's and do not have 8 pin connectors on them, but it dose have one free sata power cable free for use. so my question is, if I get a sata splitter to give me 2 sata power connectors and then plug them in to a 2 sata to 8 pin connectors, will that work or is that likely to cause problems? and just to add I am not a 100% on wattage of the PSU but will be able to find that out on Friday. This is my firs post so hope I did everything right
