Not sure... Either stock cooler on 2600K or non-80 plus PSU.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

Would have to be my LG "3D" monitor. It's embarrassing that I spent so much on such a shit monitor. Will soon be replacing it with an Asus PB278Q.

 

Or my motherboard. Asus P8Z68M-PRO. In a Define R4, with a triple slot GTX670, having an mATX mobo is just BAD.

My Battlestation.

Probably my gtx 560, it's such an embarrassing part of my rig when on hardware forums like this. Spent so much on the I5-2500K, a 1440p monitor, mechanical keyboard, SSD, Blu Ray Drive, NH-D14 cooler, 80 plus platinum PSU and yet the GPU is comparitively so weak. Sigh.

Desktop: Core i5-2500K, ASUS GTX 560, MSI Z68A GD65, CM HAF 912 Advanced, OCZ Vertex 4, WD 1TB Black, Seasonic P660, Samsung S27A850D, Audioengine A2, Noctua NH-D14, NB eLoops

Laptop: Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon

Ah well, for me that GPU would be a substantial upgrade, I've only got. GeForce GT 430 1GB GDDR3. Consider yourself lucky. :)

Most embarassing is my stock intel 950 heatsink, sucks so bad... stock clock with voltage at 1.1v... second embarrasing part is my 1800MHz 4GB RAM and third is my EVGA GTs 450 FPS...

It's not a bad GPU, it's just bad in comparison to the rest of the system. In most gaming systems, the GPU may be nearly half the budget. Including all the peripherals I have, my GPU is probably something like 10% the total value of my system, maybe even less than that. It's like this cos frankly I don't game much, but it's still embarrassing to have such an imbalanced system.

I'm not sure if I should be embarrassed or proud that I still use an old AT101W keyboard.

Every topic I post in dies.

Wires, when are we getting rid of wires and just have connectors to everything?

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
