    295x2 isn't legendary... neither is the Titan IMO.

    They both are.
     
    Carat in diamond is weight... the 24 is simply a bigger tube.

    Mixer allows you to mix (mixer) different instruments together, at controlled levels and EQs. Some have an integrated interface, but not as high quality as a dedicated one.
     
    An interface allows the audio to connect and be transferred to and from the computer.

    Those aren't good speakers... Granted I'm a bit spoiled in the speakers I use in my position. But those aren't worth using for real sound. The headphones I linked you are indeed Professional-grade at least.
     
    And, as with most things, especially pro audio... you get what you pay for.

    As a starting point, you'd be good to get a mixer and audio interface. For a beginner, I'd recommend these:
     
    Mixer: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/1204USB
    Interface: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Scarlett2i4
     
    and if in need of some over ear monitors: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HD280Pro
     
    That company (Sweetwater) is in the town I live in, and I do a great deal of business with them. Fully recommended.

    I'm above 1.3v on my 5820k. I run at 4.7GHz at 1.31v no issues.

    It's REALLY not. Some cheap liquids contain carcinogens anyway (like cigarettes). Proper liquid with a per-batch MSDS report doesn't. 
     
    Don't spread false information, if you can't acknowledge there are bad products.

    Prastupok got a reaction from colinreay in [Update] The Guinness is dead... long live Windfury   
    When I first built the Guinness, I went for more of a "Budget" route... I didn't spend a ridiculous amount of money, only about $2500 for the rig. Then Nvidia throws the Titan X in my face. For some reason, I knew I had to have one. So I bought one... then I bought a second.
     
    Everyone told me I was stupid not to throw some waterblocks on them and make a custom loop. I don't mind custom loops, but I am a strong believer in air cooling. I had an NH-D15 on my CPU prior, and while nice, I wanted more. Much more. This is the result:
     
    Before:
     
    Intel Core i7-5820K
    Noctua NH-D15
    Asus X99 Deluxe
    16GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport
    2x EVGA 970 SSC SLI
    EVGA PS 1000W Platinum PSU
    250gb Samsung 850 EVO
    2TB Toshiba 7200 RPM Scratch Disk
    3TB Seagate Barracuda Mass Storage Drive
    Corsair 500R
     

     
    Now:
    i7-5820k overclocked to 4.7Ghz on all cores.
    Asus X99 Deluxe
    Dual Titan X
    EVGA PS 1000w
    NH-D15, upgraded with 2 Noctua iPPC 2000 NF-A14
    32GB Crucial Ballistix Sport @ 2400
    250GB 850 Evo boot drive
    500GB 850 Evo scratch disk
    2TB Toshiba Mass Storage
    3TB Seagate Barracuda Mass Storage
    16x Corsair SP120 HPE
    Phanteks Enthoo Primo in Black
     
    The name behind this build update is truly appropriate... the airflow is insane. There isn't a fan hole, slot, or bracket that isn't filled. Just the way I like it. Upon completion some nerdgasming occurred. Rightfully so, I'd say.
     
    Enjoy the nerd porn.









     
    Windfury...
    The Guinness died with honor.

    I had a bout of lung cancer (what over a decade of smoking does). Relatively minor, but still a wakeup call. But anyway, science has come a long way, and most types of cancer can be treated. If you need someone to talk to, send me a message.

    I'm addicted to nicotine, I'll freely admit it. But that being said, I'd rather NOT have carcinogenic substances in my body. Nicotine does almost nothing beyond higher blood pressure.
     
    But, news flash people, Nicotine has health benefits too.
