     Helloooo everyone, here is my recently upgraded rig, will post pictures from the previous build and the new one! ( Well the only thing that changed was the platform but yeah enjoy :D)

    I called it Gold Ghetto because: 1) for some weird reason it sounds good in my head 2) the motherboard is gold and 3) because some of the things i have done are pretty ghetto mounted and just generally stuff you shouldnt do with a computer! 
 

Old Rig:

AMD 1090T @ 3.2GHz

Corsair H80 w/ 2xAP121

Asus Crosshair IV Formula

Zotac GTX 680

Kingston HyperX 8GB 1600MHz CL9

Asus Xonar Essence STX

Samsung 840 Pro 128GB
OCZ Vertex 2 90GB

WD Green 1TB 

WD Green 500GB

Corsair AX 850

Scythe Kaze Master 2

Audio Technica AT2020 USB

Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 250 ohm

Logitech G500

Logitech G110

Logitech X-530

New Rig

Intel 4770k @ 4.2GHz 1.17v
Asus Z87 Deluxe
