AMD FM2 5700 apu

GTX 660.

 

Yeah, I know, an AMD APU and an Nvidia GPU makes absolutely no sense, I was young and foolish.

I used a 2011 macbook pro to game on. Then I built a gaming desktop after I got tired of reaching 100C (around 50-60C on keyboard).

Was a bit of an impulse purchase but well worth it.

 

Starting comp was a 3570k 8gb ram with a XFX radeon 6870 and a ghetto 1280x1024 monitor lol...

 

I now have 2 1080p IPS monitors and a 7970 3770k... I've only had a desktop for 2.5 years.

Case: Fractal Design R4 (x2 Noctua 140mm Fans, x2 Fractal Design Fans)            Processor: Intel Core i7 3770k @4.2GHz (Hyper 212 Evo)             Audioengine A5+ Black Speakers

Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G45 ATX LGA1155 Z77 DDR3                                           Graphics Card: EVGA GTX 1080 SC                                               Corsair K65 RGB Cherry MX Red

Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws X 4X4GB DDR3-1600                                                     Power Supply: OCZ Z-Series Semi Modular Gold 850W                 ASUS & LG 21.5 Monitor (Dual monitor arm)

cpu was i think a 2nd gen locked i5 and my gpu was like a $50 radeon saphire card. i think like a 7xxx something? i dont know amd very well. this was only a few years ago though.

Just a normal guy with a constant desire to modify everything he owns.

I know the feeling, I almost ended up with an FX 8350 in my rig instead of the i5 4440.
