I'm the friend he's talking about, we both got full marks for every test we did, regardless of how little work we did. The tests were marked out of 20 and for every test we both got 20/20.

Always watching.

This thread still needs something... Oh yeah more creepy face swaps!
 

Thanks guys, I asked the guy who owns the card if he would hold onto it while I save up and he agreed so hopefully he remembers to hold onto it! 
 
Also, once i get it I'll be making a build log of it. had most of my PC since February but this will be it finished. It is mostly a budget build but I got a job recently and saw this, I thought to myself: I need this! Anyways, thanks again everybody!

Enter your rig specifications into PCPartPicker, there is a wattage calculator and I would add about 100-200 watts extra to be safe and to offer future expansion in case you throw something power-hungry in there *cough*FX-9590*cough*

So @Wackyalex told me recently that someone in the library of his college thought that someone was having a problem with their "WiFi cable". I just read the message and nearly fell off my chair. Not sure if he posted about it already but I haven't seen anything, probably due to all the "crap" posts.

Mmmm... cake... Is it made of 8800 GTs?

I call BS.
You'd have hit your face in your dinner not the table!
It's lies, all lies, including the cake!

trying to talk to someone who uses a mac 

The lack of cake, there was no cake, therefore the cake was a lie.

Lucky for you Linus has a tech quickie video for that!

My friend, @ScottS1 's A10-6800K's GPU runs at -8°C according to every temp monitoring software.
Meanwhile the CPU cores run at about 60°C.

I run the hacking programming club at my school, and you would assume that most of the people there would be fairly techie. Nope. Yesterday, I was called over by one of the newbies, who wanted to know what was going on with his pc. We use a windows vm to program in, and it was restarting to install updates, but he obviously had no idea what that was. I asked him why he was there while knowing nothing about computers, to which he said he knew about macs. I questioned his judgement, and he was proud to have a 2.3GHz processor in it. I informed him of my 4.4GHz processor, at which point he amended his statement to 10GHz. Is it on fire yet? I asked him what processor he had, and after a bit of probing, he said it was "OSX". Mac non techies .

Well, we might be able to teach him about cheeto dust and PC components and how they don't mix.

i9 and 890? No wonder he said his was better since his parts actually exist

My sweetest dreams become reality 
 

@ScottS1 was saying to me that we could name his build Jazz and our friends build (He's coming over to the idea of letting us build it) I believe will be called Ratchet.

This will be my first proper rig. My aim is to get as good a machine as I can afford since my budget's pretty tight as I'm a college student without a job.
I've had a really good laptop IMO for a year or so; ASUS N55SL, but I've decided it's much more practical for me to have a desktop instead as I never actually moved the laptop from my desk.
 
I make videos which I put up on YouTube, hence the i7 for a boost in rendering.
 
 
Specs:          Arrived
 
Intel 2600K MSI MPower Z77 Corsair H90 Corsair XMS3 1600 MHz 4 x 2GB Corsair AX850 Corsair individually sleeved cable kit Corsair AF140 x 3 Seagate Barracuda 2TB SSHD EVGA GTX 670 2GB Fractal Design Define R4 Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium
 
 
Apologies?
 
I know that the AX850 for this system is overkill but I got a good deal (66% off) and better to get a really good PSU that will last future upgrades than buying the one with 'enough' wattage for the current system.
 
I would've got a H100 but I had my doubts about whether it'd fit in the R4.
The AF140's aren't designed for static pressure but Corsair HASN'T MADE ANY DARN SP140'S, *clears throat*, so I've used an AF140 in pull for the H90 and put the other two in the front.
 
The 2600K idles at ~26°C and has yet to hit 70°C with ~19°C room temperature.
 
An SSD would've been nice but I felt that I could do without for a while. I need space for all those ​legally obtained movies and TV shows.
I have them on DVD, somewhere.
 
 
 
Lighting:
 
I bought a cool white LED strip which I cut to the right lengths. It's wired up to a control board comprising of a variable resistor for the top and the bottom strip for dimming and a switch to turn both off completely. I took this approach since I'd rather have my rig lit elegantly and also to allow me to sleep if I'm leaving it on to download overnight.
 
 
 
Modifications:
 
I sanded down my optical drive and gave it a couple coats of black to keep it as low a profile as possible.
 
I also switched out the blue LED that illuminates the ring around the power button for a white one. As simple as taking the front of the R4 off, pealing off the glue, pulling the old LED out of it's hole, de-soldering, soldering the new one, heat shrink and pushing it back in with a dab of glue for good measure.
 
 
 
Housekeeping to-do list:
 
Get rid of the yellow accents on the MPower ✓ Install the 670 and re-organize cables in the back ✓ Fix the R4's power switch ✓  
 
Future Upgrades:
 
Dell U2414H x 2 Corsair Vengeance 2100's ✓ Corsair RGB K70 with MX Browns (LED's set to white)  SP140 for the H90? SSD ✓ GTX 980 w/ Reference Cooler
