adriel604 got a reaction from mikeeginger in My DEFINE R4 - Update & NEW pics!
This is my 2nd build but a lot of my parts came from my 1st build so technically this is my.. 1.5th build? Anyway, still really new about computers but my enthusiasm grows every day. Just wanted to show the linustechtips community my rig so I can get some feedback and any tips you guys might have
I use this computer for gaming, picture editing, light video editing, movies, studying and web browsing.
case: Fractal Design Define R4
Mobo: MSI Z87-G43
CPU: i7 4770k
cooler: h100i with cougar vortex w/ blue LEDs placed in pull exhaust
Ram: Patriot Viper 8gb
boot drive: 120gb Kingston SSD
storage: 600gb 2.5" drive HDD
GPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 660 2GB
PSU: bequiet! 750w bronze rated
Fans: 2 UV blue Gelid & 2 black cougar vortex
extras: 1 blue usb strip for a backlight effect & 2 UV cathode sticks
I know I know! First thing I will probably need to upgrade is my hard drive... I will get a 1tb in the near future.. and bitfenix blue sleeving is on the way!
** A couple updates **
- Bitfenix cables arrived and installed
- flipped my rad although I'm not sure if I'll keep it this way. I think I like the other way better. Thoughts?
- put some carbon fiber looking vinyl accents
I definitely need to do something about those ugly wires from the PSU. Thinking about just wrapping it in black tape.
photo shoot in the kitchen. Whats up B)
The rats nest. I know it looks pretty bad but I did try to make it somewhat organized. It's not seen anyway.. oh well

The best looking affordable pc would be this:

My favorite of all time would have to be this though: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/12550-my-r4/
the minimalism is exquisite.

I would bring it down to 4.2 so you can put that voltage down. I personalyl wouldn't be comfortable with 1.338V

8gb is all you really need for gaming. Especially if it's just LOL he'll be playing mostly. I am confused if you think 16gb is necessary for gaming. Especially with a $650 budget.

I'm sorry, but this is horrible. Why on earth would you recommend a $300 i7 for a $650 build? And you don't need more than 8 GB's of ram for modern games.

Silicon lottery really refers to OC capability.

adriel604 reacted to MrYuriy in Help Installing H100i
Why Push/Pull config? You will get roughly .00001% Performance/Temperature Boost over just Intake (Pull).
Especially if they barely fit, just ditch the idea. Just my honest opinion!
Disclaimer: Linus Sebastian agrees! lol
As far as the Y-Adapter Cable, it's so that you can plug 2 fans into one Fan Header on the Motherboard.
Therefore, plug your 2 fans into the "Y" part of the cable, and the other side (female) into your motherboard.

Just trying to keep our awesome tech safe. Even though there is a very low chance of it happening,the point is that it can happen.

One thing to note. Don't lay your motherboard on the anti-static bag. The inside is anti-static but the outside is conductive. That is how the anti-static ness works.

adriel604 reacted to dragosudeki in Need some case fan advice
You could go with Bitfenix Spectre (Pro) fans. Cougar fans are pretty good too.

adriel604 got a reaction from Ciccioo in buying Audio Technica ATH-M50
the girlfriend just got these for me as a gift and they are amazing. Every time I listen to a song I can't help but smile. I feel immersed in the music and I'm hearing songs like I've never heard them before. You won't regret it. They are really comfortable too.
As for the price it went down during xmas around $80 I think? Went up to $150 and now the one the gf got for me was $119 on amazon.com.

G400s. It has the great logitech shape and is one of the best mice for FPS. Just don't buy a laser mouse and you will be alright.

adriel604 reacted to wng_kingsley7 in Third HDD in Carbide 540 Air
Well just lay it somewhere in your rig temporarily @Third Bass Code not much you can do.
Actually I thought of something you could do but I have no idea if it'll work.
Since the HDD's are mounted using the 4 holes on the bottom you could buy silverstones hard drive connector/heatsink to mount more hard drives from the side. @Third Bass Code
