Define S, X58 6Core Xeon re-build

[wildgg]

Hey LTT!

 

Few months back i build a 6 Core Xeon X5660 build as a challenge build and it turned out to be a really good PC for encoding and recording as a second PC next to my Gaming RIG.

As you will see in the pictures coming up and from the title i did a re-build and swapped cases and added some RGB fans i had laying around, i found a really cheap NZXT Phantom case but i wasn't feeling the red case color anymore so i switched to the Fractal Design Define S which is painted white, this Define S is from a previous build and i kinda i forgot that i had the case in storage laying around.

 

Currently the Xeon X5660 is running at 4.4GHz for daily use, before the re-build i pushed the CPU to get top 10 in the Cinebench - R15: Hall Of Fame on HWBOT and got 7th place Direct link to HWBOT

 

Specs:

CPU  Xeon x5660 6Core 4.4GHz
GPU  R9 280X
PSU  Corsair cx650 bronze
