Hello

 

So I am finishing my uni in few days and I'll reward myself with nice config.

 

post-10615-0-43638900-1379016037_thumb.j

 

Well this is how it should look like.

Can you please check things work nicely and will PSU be enough for config ?

 

Only thing that is bothering me is wait for 9970 or get 780.

From rumors going around 9970 might be stronger than Titan, but i am not sure of its pricing. If it is close to 600€ - 640€ ill wait. If it is higher ill get 780 ( TF or Windforce one ).

 

 

 

I am aware that R4 can't handle H110 properly, but modding front panel with few holes will do job.

 

What are your tought and ideas. Thanks

Rumors say it's going to be around $550 USD, or even $500.

Off topic, you should get a profile image :P

 

Also, that's awesome.

Wait if possible. If you're waiting, plan later. Parts and prices change.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

WAIT FOR AMD.

Also instead of a h110 you could get a NZXT kraken or a swiftech h220.

Shop that i am buying from doesn't have swifteck ( that would be my first option ) , same goes for Kraken .

Well that sucks, but do you have to buy all parts from the same vendor?

Well yea it sucks. I dont need to buy everything at same place, but i am shipping it from Germany so i dont wana pay double fees.

From rewievs it seems like h110 is good enough. Ill get it to 4.6 - 4.7 and keep it there. No need for higher.

 

P.S . I dont mind it :D

Well actually that depends on your chip, if you get a bad overclocker you could get a maximum of 4,2 (but that is very rare) my guess is around 4,6-4,7 GHZ

Well Tiny Tom got his to 5.0 at 1.25 V with h100. So 0.4 less might be reasonable.

Couple more weeks till release? I'd wait to see the specs. Also I'd suggest going with a fully modular power supply, just makes things more convenient.
