Ahh, I see, try buying some 5v or 7v resistor cables you can put between the motherboard and the fans, or get a fan control unit.

Well usually, you'd just set your fan RPMs in the BIOS/UEFI. If you just plug the fans in without fucking around with anything, they'll generally run too fast.

What was the RPM of your fans in your last case though? 1200 RPM isn't supposed to be silent or anything, and I'd argue the air flow isn't even needed that much, I run all my fans at 500 rpm or so, and my temps are great. Also, can't your motherboard control 3 pin fans? On my motherboard I can choose between PWM based control, or voltage control. Furthermore, you can use fan splitter cables, so 2 headers should be fine.

Yeah, Prime95 is tough as fuck, but atleast you know your system is stable.

Try a 6+ hour test with Prime95 Blend (AVX2 isn't a problem with skylake) I personally don't think Asus Realbench is good enough, from my own personal experience, I did a 12 hour run of Realbench without error, then I crashed while doing something random, I then ran Prime95 for 5 minutes and then error so I don't think Realbench is very tough for Skylake. It took me 1.280volts to get 4.4 stable in the end, LLC 5, and I set the CPU VCCIO and System agent voltage to 1.5 volts for good measure, cause some chips can't handle 3000mhz RAM with stock Memory controller volts, although I'm not sure that's a problem for you since you still crashed without XMP. Oh, and just an FYI, when running anything that uses AVX2 with adaptive voltage, your CPU will be supplied with +0.012 volts, because AVX2 is tougher generally.

The are worth as much as they cost.

Crap, I thought you was OP before. lol.

Unless you need really high heat dissipation, air is quiter, Air can just about go silent, where as water will only go so quiet with its pump.

Well only you know what voltage is Ok. I know my chip wouldn't do 4.6Ghz at 1.36 volts.

Drop voltage, increase LLC so it stays flat.

£40 X 0.75 = £30 Holy crap, it comes to standard game price.

Well for starters, most games will make 0% use out of them extra cores, and even if they did, you'd still probably be GPU limited for the most part. And actually, the few games that are CPU limited tend to use only 2 cores, so the the skylake with its much better per core performance would have it beat there. For encoding the Haswell-e will come into its own, but you have to question how much you're actually encoding, cause if it's only 30 minutes every few days, you'd be saving a few minutes at best. And even then I've seen a few productivity benchmarks were the 6700k has come pretty close.

For gaming, the 6700k will probs be like 0-15% faster FPS wise, for encoding, the Haswell-E will probs be about 10-15% faster. I haven't looked at the actual numbers though, this is a guestimation. Just get the 6700k, 500 more dollars for the 5820k is actually a rip off, it shouldn't be that much more.

I recommend OCCT with error checking on, because you don't have to watch out for visual artifacts that way, it's alot more objective with error checking.

Just get a cheap XFX PSU, even if the PSU isn't the problem, you should still be running a branded PSU. BTW, on this forum, most people only pay attention to threads for about 20 minutes, then they never look at it again, so you might not get much response from here on. Mentioning people like PythonHaxor will give people notifications. Or quoting them will also.

What motherboard do you have?

If you're running nvidia, try going to your nvidia control panel, go on "Adjust image settings with preview" and select "Let the 3d application decide". If AMD, I don't know. This is just a trouble shooting step. You can also try reinstalling your graphics card drivers too.

Upload to imgur or something, and post links.

Always Annoying when Windows automatically tries to install a GPU drivers, it's gotten worse with win10.

H110 only supports upto 2133MHz DDR4. Just FYI. Should go Dual channel too (ie 2x4GB)

Yeah well, power draw = heat output pretty much.

Get a power meter and plug it into the wall if you want.

Meh, <Deleted>

Try find a 75hz IPS, they do exist, and 75hz is actually nicer. 60hz is pretty horrible for even none FPS games IMO. Edit: I can't even find the nice 75hz IPS is saw awhile ago .

If you want the best gaming machine, you don't really want 4 GPUs, it won't really give a great user experience, you want 2 maximum ideally, or just one for competitive gaming. Although I doubt you are in it for competitive. GTX 980 TIs are generally faster because they run at a higher clock speed and can be OC'd further if need be. If OP actually used a 4x GPU system as a daily driver, it'd be pretty funny though, I mean whenever he wants to play a game, he'd have a fucking 1000 watt space heater. I used to have a 500 watt average power consumption PC and long gaming sessions were unbearable unless I left the window wide open. I've since tuned my PC to use 200 watts or so while heavy gaming, and life is a lot better now.
