I have obviously gotten rid of the stock cooler now. My Cooler Master cooler took an extra 2 days to come, and I did not wanna wait to put my PC together

To be honest I like your old system more minus the dust. The new system is too mainstream.

[_iNefarious_]

No GPU?

[Swegly]

No GPU?

He has a 780 ti..

[Weegee]

Dude ignore what Ryan said. Your new system is freaking awesome.

 

Possibly give some benchmarks, that thing is a beauty.

Also, what do you think of the Hue? I'm thinking about getting that for my build

So what's a guy have to do to see some pics of a Glacer in the system?  

Thanks for choosing Cooler Master!

Ahhhhh.... You should gone with the GHz edition of the windforce, the backplate looks soooooo sexy (I speak from experience) but no harm done

Thanks! I love the hue. It has a of different brightness options. All the different colors. It's great. I love the white, that's the color I keep it on most.

The old system had dust because it's 3 years old. I tried to keep it as clean as possible. Well maybe it's to mainstream but It's very very fast, and just destroys ALL GAMES!!!

I love my hue so far. Zero problems. I love all the different brightness options.

I have some pics up there with the Cooler Master Glacier 240L  installed. Are they to small, you want bigger pics?

I wanted the GHz Windforce. I ordered from newegg since I had a huge customer service gift card(I had a problem getting my processor so they gave me a huge gift card). I wanted the GHz one but I had to use the gift card by December 31th which was fine with me since I wanted to anyway. When I order from newegg the only had a few reference 780 ti, the MSI gaming ti(which I don't deal with MSI ever) and the Gigabyte Windforce OC. I may give them a call and send this one back, and get the Gigabyte GTX 780 TI GHz Windfore.

My Gigabyte 780 TI Windforce OC Base clock is 1020 and Boost is 1085, but it's running at 1150 all the time at about 40c while being dead silent. Just out of the box no adjustments at all. Do you guys think I should try, and overclock it, or just let it run like it has been.

My bad! I was very tired and missed those while scrolling through, just noted the last few had the stock air cooler, didn't even think the ones above had the Glacer, especially when you said "I have obviously gotten rid of the stock cooler now. My Cooler Master cooler took an extra 2 days to come, and I did not wanna wait to put my PC together " too.

 

Thanks!

Thanks man! The Glacer working well for you?

[Rokku]

Yes it's great.I don't have it overclocked right now. I idle at around 27-30c full load around 40c. Prime95 & MSI Kombustor I got about 50c. I had it overclocked to 4.6GHz at 1.18v, and the temps were pretty much the same.
