    NickyVida reacted to topsu in your school labs's computer hardware?   
    You wished you could play games with your schools computers?
     
     
    I study IT and we have like 4 classes with 20 x thinkpad t420 (i5 2520m) + 4gb ram in some classes and some classes with i5-3470 HP desktops with 8gb ram and 1080p displays. All computers have just igpu.
     
    Also everyone in IT class can get t420 + bag for 50€ deposit and when school ends either keep it or return it for 50€. (It comes with most adobe software too.)
    And those thinkpads sell like 1500€ here O_o

    Introduction:
     
    Hi guys! im Nicky from Singapore here
     
    Am new to this forum. Been a fan of Linus's videos on YT and have learned lots from his videos.
     
    I've been saving up since last year and finally after lots of scrimping and saving i'm almost ready for my first build. I have never assembled a computer before so im really nervous.
    Sorry for any blurry pictures.I dont really have a good cam >.<
     
     
    The parts:
     
    Haswell I7 4770k-CPU+Hyper 212evo dual fan(Gentle Typhoon)
     
    Thermal Compound-Gelid
    Asus Z87 Plus-Mobo
    Asus GTX-780-GPU(intending to SLI in the future.)
    G Skill Ripjaws 4x4 1600mhz -Ram
    Seasonic X Series 1050w- PSU
     
    NZXT Phantom 630- Casing with extra 200mm fan
    LG DVD drive
     
    Asus VE-248H Monitor
     
    Planned parts for this week- Gonna assemble by this saturday once everything's up!
    Perhaps a new CPU cooler- Not sure which cooler is the best for raw performance cos im intending to O/C.
     
     
     
    Any casing/cooler fans you guys can recommend for the best cooling performance? i don't really care about noise level.
     
    Anyway, here are the pics. I'll probably update prior to saturday when i'll get all of the parts.
