What’s the worst part of your rig?

MeltyMoon

My PC case (generic black mid-tower cheapo case)

Intel stock cooler (I don't plan to OC, but it's kinda loud)

The ghetto-mounted cheapo 80mm exhaust fan (loud, can't change RPM due to motherboard being somewhat cheap (AsRock P67 Pro3 SE))

My monitor (17'' 1280x1024 ViewSonic VP171s)

My keyboard (wireless Logitech EX100 keyboard + mouse combo... Though the keyboard has served me well for +4 years. But mouse... Not so much)

My mouse (Attitude one Vintorez. Can't have it from cycling it's LEDs colors without switching the feature off, with the exception of mouse wheel, which can't be turned off at all)

 

 

And lastly, but only because of my extreme laziness:

 

My GPU (Asus 550 Ti. I have had a Gigabyte GTX 590 for like half a year, though I finally switched it few weeks ago, but decided to swap it to 550 Ti again to uninstall it's drivers to not interfere with 590 install. Still haven't done anything about it...)

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

My case which is a nice full tower ATX Thermaltake but it's just old. Also my lack of a Graphics card right now. Actually I have a GFX card it's a super old  ATI x1950

Something is pretty loud. Have never investigated what it is.

I don't hate them but starting to dislike the RAM and hard drive, the RAM is good but 4GB is starting to get to the point where it isn't enough and the hard drive once again is good but at times it seems to bog down. I would like an SSD but right now I have more important things to spend money on

Everything is being bottlenecked by a GTX 460 that has lifetime warranty. And I can't seem to fry the card to take advantage of the warranty..... embarrassing I know... 

this is what you do, you overclock it as high as it can go, then to some crypto mining problem solved.

I do need to get into crypto-currencies though...

My EVGA GTX550 Ti. It's a tad bit to loud and creates interference between my main sound card and embedded sound card.

My computer heats up the room that it is in almost instantly. It seems to act as a fireplace when it is on full load. Even when I have one of the two windows in the room open and there is literally 5 inches of snow right outside, no amount of cooling seems to help it cool down.

The case is awesomeballs, so that's fine.

Except there was no stock fan in the front so I put one in there from my old case. It's only a 2 pin fan so the fan controller LED for that fan doesn't light up even though it works.

The RAM is awesome. Overclocked and undervolted on stock timings.

 

My motherboard and CPU are pretty lacking in one of my favorite games, BeamNG Drive which is extremely CPU intensive. (The motherboard is an MSI Military Class II and it doesn't have fucking CPU voltage control even though it says it does.. So I can't pump as much out of the CPU as I really should be able to.)

 

My screens: I have no issues with the first one, the second one has just a VGA plug even though the pictures on Amazon showed a DVI and audio/speakers.

For now I just hate my GPU. Saving up for a GTX780 Ti, though. I kinda suspect though that by the time I've saved up enough maybe the 880 will have been released.

My PSU's  broken fan, and the faint buzzing noise my HDD makes when it's not spinning, it's the last thing in my pc that makes noise, if I get rid of it it'll be completely silent unless I put my ear on the case :3  :(  may replace it with a 500gb ssd, but idk yet

Still having a Mechanical Hard Drive in there. It's the only loud thing in my rig. Unfortunately my game library is too big to fit on SSD.

Mine would be that it needs power and I don't have a UPS.. The power goes out just like this morning, and when I wake up it there sitting all dormant.. (It was a lot quieter than usual since I run F@H at night.) Realistically though I'd probably say my 6870. It's still a decent card and will run a lot of games fairly well, but that Gig of Vram kind of kills it.
