Well my CPU is a total power hog and is too slow for some games but my main complaint is my PSU fan. It makes a horrible clicking sound. All my other fans are silent and there's nothing I can do about it

Not the best for battlefield 3 or recording  without overcloking

 

Still a pretty good CPU, what is your overclock if you don't mind me asking?

I like my rig, but if I had to hate something I'd say the GPU because it's not a GTX 780 or Titan  ;)

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

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Probably my 20 inch 1600x900 HP monitor or $30 2.1 speakers. Both suck pretty bad, but they work for me.

I user my headphones for music so the speakers don't bother me much, but I am thinking of getting a 24inch 1080P monitor sometimes in the future. 

 

Actually I remembered a couple more: 

Brown PCB on my GPU, really MSI? You make a kick ass looking GPU cooler(660ti power editon) and then slap on a ugly brown PCB? Ruins the whole card!

My case(Phantom 410) looks pretty awesome, but sadly the front and top are all plastic, probably because it is difficult to mold metal in intricate shapes. 

I feel your pain on the monitor and speakers.. Running the same resolution monitor but lower at 1280 x 1024. </3, upgrading to a 120Hz Benq monitor in 2 months.

Cpu: i5-2500k @4.8Ghz, MB: Asus Maximus V Formula, CPU cooler: Be quiet! Dark rock pro 2, GPU: Evga Gtx660 FTW@1.24ghz. Ram: Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1866Mhz, PSU: Be quiet! 730w Semi modular, SSD: Corsair force 3 240Gb, HDD: WD Green 1TB, Case: Nzxt H2 with 4 Corsair SP120's, Win7

It would have to be my 5870 for two reasons. One being its old now and the other is that it kicks out far too much heat.

Did I mention before that I hate the CPU's, Motherboard, Ram, Case, power supply,  pretty much everything I haven't upgraded

My case (Thermaltake chaser MK-1) is large, loud and bloody ugly. Going to be replacing it with a Define R4 in the coming weeks.

My second monitor.  It's a 19" with a max res of 1440x900.  Doesn't really match well with my 23" 1080P.

 

Another one would be my desk.  I'm just using a generic large table.

Same issue! (desk included) but with a 25" monitor.
