Anyone who has an overkill rig that only uses it for games and porn sicken me. Something about wasted potential makes me see the person as having more cash than brain to ever respect. Perfect current example would be PC gamers foaming at the mouth with an X99 rig and not even doing workstation work. You're not a leet gamer, you're a tool.

True, thats how Alienware make their money, noobs who will spend a ton of cash for lights and dont know much about the hardware inside their PCs. 

And i am gonna be doing fairly regular video editing for a nationally recognised school project with my friend, so my rig is perfect for my needs

Could be my scenario where I have some sort of superiority complex. I have the itch to make my PC top of the line, like im going to buy the new 980 ti when it comes out but I don't play games anymore. Besides occasional cs go and android emulator (brave frontier).

•  i7 4770k @4.5ghz 1.248v • Noctua NHD14  •  ASUS MAXIMUS VI Hero •  Asus STIRIX 980 Ti •

•  Corsair Vengeance Pro 16Gb  •  Samsung 840 250gb + Samsung 1TB 7200RPM •  BenQ XL2430T 144Hz  •

•  Fractal Design R4  •  CoolerMaster GX650 80+ •  Razer Deathadder Chroma  •  Filco Ninja 2 Red  •  HD600/HE-4/ Fiio E17  •

With x99 you wont need to upgrade your mobo for a while aaand I think directX 12 will make more use of more than 2 cores. X99 has some features normal lga motherboards don't have like I haven't heard of dual m.2 slot on non x99 motherboards but I have on the x99 platform. People have their own reasons for their purchases, as long as it's not a titan z (unless it's m-itx 4k rig or something) let them be.

Needs more v-core

Then no build is overkill by that definition.

I am using a 5820k.... And a 980...

Has anyone called you a 6 Core Peasant?

They would be mad lol

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

Overkill

Word: Too much for something

 

Something can be a variable, it is different for everything.

 

Meaning Overkill means too much for "x"

 

Which in turns means overkill varies from person to person

Lets all ripperoni in pepperoni

I have an overkill build for what I use it for, I suppose. 7970 and a 2600K clocked in at 4.7GHz on an ASRock Extreme9. The case is so heavy I may have to sell it and get a different one for the journey home. I really don't want to, that case was expensive...
