  1. wouldn't bother with pre order for example with gta v the only bonus was getting credits in game and after game launched you could still get credits on cjs keys sooo pointless
  2. Just had raid 0 setup with 3 240gb ssd's i had another 3.5inch hdd connected at the time but it is a non raid drive only had it connected so i could move data to the raid but now thats done i tried disconnecting the hdd but the system wont boot and goes straight into the bios ? Have made sure the raid is the boot option but unsure why a hdd thats non raid thats has no data on it now would cause the machine to not boot any ideas what be great.
  3. ^^^ Added a Future plans list at start of build ^^^ feel free to give me ideas im unsure if im going to upgrade cpu to 4790k or just stick with the current one and if i should add any LED's to inside of case i don't want it to be overpowering and just turn everything red so unsure if i should do that or just leave it Looking into hard tubing as well but will hold off till i get another 980 in the future to fit all at once!
  4. Update: Got a slightly higher over clock on the 980 can push memory clock up abit more but im happy where it is. All tested and stable
  5. Well i tried out overclocking the 980 and this is what i have stable at the moment not sure if i should go higher or not i will continue to fiddle with it and see what i can reach is this a decent overclock for a 980?
  6. Indeed it does more money to put into the next 980....maybe
  7. i actually have had this cpu for ages so i just kept using that didn't feel there was any point going to the 4790k
  8. Nice first build mate will be great for some 1080p gaming.
  9. Thank you it's good to know people like it because it takes alot of time and money but definitely worth the effort you should totally do it!.......one day =) Yeah im definitely looking into custom cables but after fitting all the water cooling gear in yesterday might be abit before ripping all the cables out again to redo and i would love another 980 to finish the build off so maybe down the track.
  10. **Watercooling Begins** 2x 360mm radiators 1x pump 1x 270mm reservoir 1x gtx 980 strix waterblock 1x cpu waterblock Clear tubing with red fluid A few pictures of at the start with some of the components just been unboxed to pretty much done then testing for leaks etc Been a few days now with no leaks temps are great on both gpu and cpu with idle anywhere from 23-30 degrees depending on room temps Next will be some overclocking.
  11. Good idea i will get rid of the sticker and if i could find a red/black one that would be better. In regards to the blue near the brackets if im looking at the right thing it was just a reflection from my tv there's no blue lights in the pc only to 2 small white led's on the gpu above the power connectors. I never thought i would spend money for the tidy look but i buy a thing everynow and again and then eventually put it together kind of a fun hobby if you get into it any ways thanks for the feedback. Yep It's getting redone as said above.... Thank you and yes i will i was thinking of just waiting to post this but i figured i could do a update later on and with better quality pictures.
  12. ****My Pc Build I Call Blood Tears**** Here is my pc from a mini air cooled system all the way up to full size watercooled system feel free to let me know what you think of my pc and any suggestions on how to make it better i have added a list below of future mods which i know need to be done and will hopefully get around to finishing the build. CPU: Intel 4770K CPU Cooling: Custom watercooling (dual 360mm rads) Motherboard: Asus Maximus VII Hero RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16gb 2400mhz GPU: Asus Strix 980 watercooled Case: Corsair 780T Black Version Storage: Corsair 240gb SSD,Seagate 2TB,Hitachi 1TB PSU: Corsair RM850 Case Fans:Corsair AF140 x3 + AF120 x3 Keyboard:Corsair Vengeance K95 Mouse:Corsair Vengeance M65 RGB FPS 8200 DPI + Razer Destructor 2 mouse pad Monitors:Samsung 32inch 2560x1440p SD850 S32D850T / AOC 27inch 1920x1080p Headset: Sound Blaster Omega Wireless Headset **Future Plans** :Red sleeved cables :Backplate for the gtx980 :2x 480gb ssd's in raid 0 :Add another GTX 980+waterblock+backplate :Change to hard tubing :Add another 16gb ram to system (same kit as i have now) So this was the first stage of this computer couple parts have changed since obviously but this was the original build with my current cpu i was running 8gb corsair value select ram...lol and a reference gtx 780 which i sold to a mate but was a great overclocker and had a 620watt high current gamer psu Then i'm not really sure why i decided i wanted to go to a slightly larger case because i never thought i would be watercooling but i did.... Pretty much just changed case and added some blue led lights was good for awhile but i think i got over the look of the bitfenix Then went to a Corsair 750D which i loved that case look excellent! and went with the green on the gpu card logo so changed to full size board with some green on it (gigabyte sniper) Then i wasn't happy with the single card in such a big case and decided to sell my 780 and move to 2x gigabyte gtx 760 oc 4gb cards and a psu to suit Had some issues with sli and got sick of driver crashes etc during bf4 and they were overclocked from factory but i wanted to push them harder and they wouldn't have it soooo i was done with them! (will try find more pics of them installed) And now we are here i kept the psu from my sli build got myself a GTX 980 Strix,corsair dominator 2400mhz 16gb ram and went to a corsair 780T only reason for case change was the 750D was abit damaged in certain spots from going to lan events so decided to try something different and go for a red and black theme instead of having tonnes of random colours and now the latest addition to the machine is watercooling which i will get around to listing spec but it is dual 360mm rads single pump and watercooling cpu and gpu Let me know what you think and any suggestions!
  13. One stick is probs faulty run memtest over it that will tell you
