New Workstation Rig

[MandalorePlayz]

This is my first PC build, I have been sourcing the parts for this for 4 months now and I finally build it.

Parts:

i7-6850k over clocked to 4.4Ghz

ASUS x99 Deluxe II

Corsair H100i

Corsair Carbide 270r

Samsung 960 evo 500GB

Corsair RM850x

Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB

ASUS GTX 1080 Turbo

Seagate Barracuda 2tb.

 

I have included the RealBench results and some other pictures.

"4x longer lifespan" that's what it says on GPU box.

With that cooler, GPU is pretty much on max temp all the time, so not sure how exactly is that helping with GPU's life span lol

 

Maybe add some pitures from day light, because I hardly see anything.

i have had troubles with the asus turbo fans going bad. should make a thread about it along with gigabyte... 20+ fans total in a few months at full speed

Those fans aren't really meant to run at 100% speed all the time. 

They should use 2 or 3 fans custom cooling instead, that can acctually handle colling of that card.

they were mining cards. all of my other asus, msi, amd fans handled it well. that being said a lot of the asus tubos were used as normal. gigabyte seems to use cheapo fans for all their cards

Actually I have run 3 stress tests on it and the gpu has yet to get anywhere near "max temps" yet.

Those sure sounds like great results, but I'm using GTX 1070 EVGA with 2 fans, and when I overclock it, it can reach 82°C pretty fast. 

Not sure how can you manage your GPU under those temps when GTX 1080 is pulling more power and producing more heat while it's only being cooled by one small fan.

 

As long as it works for you
