My Archaic Rig

Relighten · January 21, 2013

I do a ton of video editing and rendering, some light photoshop and 3d work, and a little gaming on it also but i havent found the time or resources to upgrade until now so here she is.

Case: Cooler Master Haf XB

Mobo: Evga 780i FTW

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 3.33 w/stock heatsink

Memory: 4gigs Crucial Ballistix 800mhz, had 6gigs but 1 died :(

GPU: Diamond HD 6770

Storage: 2 500gig WD blue in raid 1

Add ons: Blackmagic Intensity Pro

Shes gotten me pretty far but its finally time to upgrade. my new build is going to be centered around a fx8350 and two 660ti, But i will update when i start getting the parts in.

This is archaic? Heh.

To be honest man, I would caution against SLI 660Ti's -- you would be better served by a single 680, for example.

That is my recommendation, it's up to you. I would also recommend going Intel-side, but the 8350 is still quite nice.

Thanks for the advice im going to go with a 680 intstead i plan on doing a full water loop and thats way cheaper than 2 blocks for the 660s
