My friend probably put about 1000 into the all the parts except the graphics cards. He just bought 2 Titan X cards. He's crazy

friend has 3770 (locked), worst mobo on the planet,  850 evo, and 750ti... maxing out his no name psu (literally there is NO name on the thing!) and then the ram...8gb stick...4gb stick... 2gb stick... total of 14 gb's ...

 

EDIT: oh, yeah and his 750ti he over volted so his only font is comic sans.

That's definitely crazy. Why the Pentium with that beast?

 

Im trying to hold of until skylake gets released.  But If a good deal on a Haswell mobo/cpu combo comes up ill probably jump on it.  Its on a B85 mobo so even the OC is limited.

i7-5820k @ 4.6ghz w/ H100i || Asus Sabertooth x99 || Gigabyte 980ti G1 ||  EVGA 980ti SC || 32gb DDR4 2666mhz Gskil || 1tb WD Black HDD || Samsung XP941 256gb M.2 PCIe || EVGA 1300w G2 || Corsair 540 w/ Silverstone Sound Dampening Foam || Logisys RGB Led  || Corsair M65 Mouse  & Corsair RGB k70 || A lot of Corsair SP120s

I vote me, since I have a water cooled 4690k that isn't oc'ed, and a 750w 80+gold seasonic psu, to feed the stock cpu and gtx970.

 

Edit: Oh, and 16gb of ram.

I'm pretty sure Kyle from Awesomesauce Network has a PC with an i7-4770k and no GPU at all (just onboard graphics), though the system isn't used for gaming.

Core 2 Duo, Titan Z. Fair enough. No bottlenecks here.
EDIT: Oh you mean, not theoretically. Well, mine's shit but not unbalanced.

I have a friend who has a 4770k and 16GB RAM and a GTX 570.

I have another friend who has a 4770 and 16GB RAM and a 660 1.5GB.

And another who has some locked i5 and 16GB of RAM and a 650.

 

And then I have a 4670k and 24GB of RAM and a 680...

Sig under construction.

i think what would be more unbalanced is a celeron with quad Titan Xs

i used to have a 1090T with my two 980s in SLI.

 

so much LOL.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

I think my FX 8320 and dual R9 270 setup works well. Could use a better CPU, but it's not as unbalanced as when I had an AMD A8 3850 and a single 270. That CPU bottlenecked even the 650ti I had before the 270. (GPU upgrade only cost $20 after selling the 650ti, so yeah.)

 

I do have an HP system with a 2.9GHz E7500 and a ATI X1300 that has to be overclocked to the limit to smoothly play HD video.. (I want to get PCI extenders and run one or two of my 270s just for the lols.)

Compared to what I want to do on it mines pretty bad - dual P4 based xeons and a HD5770 with RAM maxed out to 8gbs of 333mhz DDR2. I can't get the 5770 to move off it's min clock (400mhz) no matter what I try (bottleneck much?). Yep i game and edit photos and videos on this thing. It can't even play 1080p video, not that it matters as my monitor can only display 720p for 16:9 (it's 1280:1024).

My GT610 fried itself. I was playing an intense round of TF2 and it rose all the way to 200F. Didn't realize it fried itself until it started artifiacting.

I had the same thought. I played TF2 on a GT 610 A LOT, never rose above 50 degrees celsius, with it's tiny fan and heatsink. (it's a Club3D card btw) 

 

The only thing I fried on TF2 was an onboard graphics chipset (ATi Radeon Xpress 1250)
