  1. Yup, currently trying to figure it out :L edit: just found it, updating it now lol Edit2: @Shiv78 fixed it
  2. i fully understand what i could have gotten but I rented to save the money up front and to help build credit. and yes i know the CPU is locked. I went ahead and did Z series and liquid cooling because i only paid like $150 for the 4590. It's called planning ahead
  3. Ok so first i'd light to make clear, yes it's expensive for what's in it because i crammed a lot in it. There, now that that's out of the way... Sorry for the bad quality, lighting in my room sucks -__- Parts List: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/OGKingFox/saved/M8KFf7 I started out with a PC i bought on ebay for $170 that was pretty sketchy. As you can imagine, it didn't have much but a AMD Athlon X4 640 cpu and a Radeon HD4830 graphics card and everything else was pretty basic. Replaced it one part at a time and ended up with the PC you see below. It's an ongoing project of mine and will be for quite a while as i still have a lot i need to do. I used the NZXT S340 Elite as the case due to it being a reasonable price and glass window, plus I've used it before and just absolutely loved it (used it when it was just the acrylic window). I tinted the window using 20% window tint. Albeit a little dark, the Hue+ on the inside make it look pretty good. I may replace the tint with either 35% or 50%. Probably 50%.... Also i'd like to note than i'm currently renting the RX 480 from Cutting Edge Gamer due to monthly payments only being $35 a month. I plan on using buyout option to be able to keep it (basically the terms is for 12 month but if i pay an extra month card is mine to keep). Not bad i think but it does come out overpriced, but i'm not worried about it. Didn't break the bank initially to buy it so I'm happy :3 lemme know of any suggestions or minor tweaks you'd like to see! (The white LED fans are being replaced soon, so keep that in mind :P)
  4. yup, i edited my post just before you posted lol, RIP.
  5. and just to confirm that the screenshot isn't faked, they indeed did. Here's the archived page i dug up @TrigrH http://archive.is/2017.02.21-212937/https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W5Q7B38/#selection-5629.19-5629.42 Edit: damn appears @Name Taken beat me to it lol :c
  6. Just did another test, not sure how or what i did, but scored MUCH higher... http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/12921355
  7. Thats the full scores for the latest run i did.
  8. which would only be about 4.5ghz =.='
  9. Yes, it wasnt hitting 100% by any means. was maybe at 50% or so.
  10. So i just got my RX480 and ran Firestrike (not ultra or extreme) and I'm scoring just above my R9 380, but barely. I am pretty sure, from what i've seen online, that it should be scoring higher than this? Or is this about right because i am not totally sure.

  11. Alright well thanks anyway. Im sure i just missed something somewhere If anyone else has any input that'd be great ;D
  12. I've got just a cheap phone so potato quality, but i use my paint skills.
  13. Now sure how i would do that exactly. The pump is connected to the power supply. The only thing i have control of is the fans (AFAIK).
  14. completely understandable, but yes its plugged in haha
  15. Yea i tried that already, even reapplied thermal paste too :c
