First build

[TheSLSAMG]

Do you actually think 2 780s will fit in a Micro ATX case?

They will. Why would they offer mATX boards with SLI if they didn't?

[WoodenMarker]

Do you actually think 2 780s will fit in a Micro ATX case?

Yes. They fit on the motherboard that is sli ready.

[Bloodyvalley]

Yes. They fit on the motherboard that is sli ready.

I'm talking about the case, not the motherboard.

Lol. You sound like you stumbled into here from leddit. 

 

 

While I'm here, I might as well submit my own.

 

Beauty and performance.

If it needs to be cheaper, some changes can be made, but the premium is there for the quality and aesthetics. 

 

@TheSLSAMG you must have gotten me to do the first build I've done in months. Doing builds is boring, usually mark and hotbeens handles that. 

[WoodenMarker]

I'm talking about the case, not the motherboard.

The case supports matx.

The motherboard is matx.

The video cards fit onto the motherboard that fits into the case.

 

Get it now?

[CoolBeans]

*cough* AMD CPU *cough*

What about it?

[Bloodyvalley]

What about it?

You're killing me....

 

You get a $150 CPU and pair it with a $700 GPU

 

That's like taking a Bugatti Veyron 16.4 and putting bicycle wheels on it.

[TheSLSAMG]

Basically, what you're saying is "I am an Intel fanboy, be subjected to my top kek tactics."

 

The 8320 is a powerhouse. On par with the i5 4670K and sometimes much better.  It's not like taking a Veyron and putting bicycle wheels on it. It's like taking a Bugatti Veyron and making it a SuperSport.

[TheSLSAMG]

I have talked to Sarcasm before in the Teamspeak. He can be an asshole, but he is not a complete idiot/fanboy.

Hahaha. It's more like a heater if you ask me.

You have never talked to me. No one in this forum has ever talked to me. Only typed.

[TheSLSAMG]

You have never talked to me. No one in this forum has ever talked to me. Only typed.

But the way you type and the way you carry yourself makes you look like an unknowledgeable fanboy. It's okay if you don't know what you're talking about, but don't talk in terms of cost solely. It just never works.

It's not necessarily that. Not sure if Pythagoras or Caligula

Oh sure, you determined that I was an unknoledgeable fanboy just by my spelling and grammar. Damn, that could earn you a living!

Don't worry we're all knowledgeable around here and I can help with this, trust me I'm helping

 

What does this photograph mean to you?

It's not your spelling and grammar. That one flew over your head too?

To CoolBeans when he paired the AMD FX 8320, a perfectly capable CPU with the GTX 780Ti. From reading this, your analogy was made based completely off of pure costs, as in the real world, a 780Ti would NOT be bottlenecked by an 8320. This shows you are only looking at things from a price perspective.

 

You said:

 

 

Do you actually think 2 780s will fit in a Micro ATX case?

To WoodenMarker when he put up a build that destroyed both of ours consisting of an i5 4440 and dual 780s. This shows that you are unknowledgeable, since it would clearly work.

Alright, shut up and let OP choose

[TheSLSAMG]

Alright, shut up and let OP choose

Hahahaha, like I am going to listen to you.

 

And why just the "shut up"? No response?

Well then why is Intel better than AMD?

[TheSLSAMG]

I beg to differ

This is also very nice aesthetically (black theme)

I looked at this again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You forgot the RAM.

[Whiskers]

@Bloodyvalley

 

Your criticisms of anyone else's builds is rendered null and void by the fact that your own build has no RAM.

 

Unless your build miraculously does not need such a thing...?
