The only thing that bugs me is the difference in color between the window light and the kitchen lights. Other than that the exposure and framing both look good. Here's mine. Packard Clipper

Very nice. I like the warm tone of the re-edit and how much detail there is in the shadowed portion of the car. The only thing I would change is the position of the camera so that the cranes weren't sticking up out of the roof of the car. Awesome photo! Here's my photo Snow Day by Matt, on Flickr

You'll have to connect the pump pwm to the second cpu fan header on your motherboard (the one to the left of the memory slots if you're already using the cpufan1 header for the fans on the splitter) and power the pump with the molex as well. After that you can go in the bios and change the fans and pump independently.

Since DDR (double data rate) memory can transfer data twice per clock cycle, the memory is labeled at twice the amount of clock cycles that it can complete in a second. The amount of clock cycles it can complete in a second is the actual frequency of the memory and is what all of the timings/latencies are based on. So in the example I quoted above, the 1600MHz memory can complete 800 million clock cycles per second. 1 cycle would take 1/800,000,000 seconds or 1.25 nanoseconds and if the memory had a CAS latency of 8 cycles then it would have a CAS latency of 10ns.

Wouldn't the latency be twice as much because you would use the actual frequency to calculate latency instead of the effective (DDR) frequency?

Figured i'd ask this here before creating a thread. Are there any 970's that are hardware limited to a specific max voltage? I've modified the bios on my card but can't seem to get it to go above 1.212 volts, before flashing the bios it would only go up to 1.2v. Neither gpu-z or msi afterburner are showing any perfcap reason or limits reached when testing. Changing voltages in afterburner has no effect at all on the stock or modified bios. The model number of my 970 is 04G-P4-1972-KR, maybe its the 4+2 power phase holding me back?

I like the concept, good idea to remove the license plate next time too. I tried the same thing a few years back and it took me a couple tries to get right, the photo below was my final result. I would recommend shooting the flash through a white translucent umbrella (or something similar) so that the light is more even on the car. The stairs and railing on the right are a bit distracting to me but that's an easy fix. Its good for a first attempt. Nice lighting for the low key shot. I wish I could see what size the flash drive was since we can see the size the other drive is. Other than that, it looks good for a heat of the moment pic. Here is mine. I took 5 different shots and lit a different section of the car with each one, then overlapped them in photoshop and removed the flares that the flash made. Nissan 350Z

Is there any chance that the 4690K score of 658 is from when you ran cinebench (overclocked) before you got windows 10 and it just carried over during the upgrade? It looks like your 4690K is running at stock speeds at the moment even with the oc set. For monitoring I like to use HWiNFO64 although I'm not sure how well it works in windows 10. http://www.hwinfo.com/download.php You can select the sensors-only option when you run it and hide what you don't want to see. It should show you clock speeds, usage, voltage, and a bunch more. If everything still looks normal cpu wise then maybe update bios/drivers and whatnot.

I've got an old Intel cpu that sits on my desk from my first computer. I've also got a 560 Ti that is still it use from my first custom build but when it gets retired that card will be on my desk too. Now i've got to figure out if/what I should keep from this build although nothing will be retired for at least a few years, haha. Here's some pics of the cpu and gpu.

Another bump, added a 3rd skin to the op.

The lighting style is called light painting. You use a handheld light source and "paint" your subject however you want.

You can try turning up your h100i's pump speed as much as you can while still having it quiet. Have you changed the cache ratio and voltage at all? You may want to set them to fixed values instead of auto. Also check to see what your cpu input voltage (VCCIN) is and try increasing it a bit. My VCCIN was 1.75 at stock and I had to increase it to 1.85 for my core voltage to be stable at 1.268 but you can find what works for you. Make sure you monitor your temps and turn up your pump and fans as needed though.

No problem, glad I could help!

It wouldn't be the biggest res but it should work. I'm not sure which reservoirs fit on the bracket though. There's somebody else on this forum doing an Evolv custom water cooled rig that you may want to check out to see how their experience with it goes. The specs look interesting. http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/314025-enthoo-evolve-rigid-wc-build/

Haha, yeah that's mine. There's a few more photos on this page but that is the best one of the entire case. http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/183-show-off-your-setup/page-392#entry3659891 There is a side bracket that comes with the case which you can fit a pump & res combo to and it would sit just above the gpu. Also, a 180mm long power supply is a tight fit but mine is fully modular and still fits with the HDD bay.

It can fit up to a 280mm rad up top and still have a 140mm radiator on the back. If you set the fans to push through the radiators and exhaust that air out of the case then you shouldn't have any heat issues. Here is a link to a photo of my build so you can see the space between the back 140mm fan and the fans at the top, and this is with a 280mm radiator up top. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7483/16011803871_01063a14d0_h.jpg

The Pandora was on my list when I was looking for micro atx cases but in the end I went with the Evolv. I'll try and answer any specific questions you have about it.

If you're just going for size then the Evolv is not much smaller than your current case. The main points the Pandora has over the Evolv is its size and looks, which of course is subjective. The Evolv is very easy to work in and should also be quieter with its 200mm and 140mm fans vs the Pandora's 2 120mm fans. The Evolv also has better build quality from the video's I've seen of the Pandora and is not as difficult to keep clean. Also, the extra space above the motherboard and the included fan hub are helpful if you decide to watercool.

Thanks! I seem to get lucky with my i5's. My 2500k could do 5.0Ghz on air, hopefully this 4690k can get there on water. Too bad I can't throw as much voltage in it as you did in that video. haha

Here's my results, 726 points at 4.8Ghz with the ram at 2400Mhz. I did one run at 4.9 that brought me into the 740's but it wasn't stable. I'll have to venture above 1.3V one day and see what this chip can do.

The database is closing in on 300 submissions! Overclocked my 4690K to 4.8 Ghz and ran a relatively quick stress test so I added it to the database.

Haven't taken any new shots recently, but here's a bunch of old ones. https://www.flickr.com/photos/100437919@N08/
