My first instinct with this is to use just one case by itself for a massive game server. The next one is to build two separate rigs in each, then join them together int he same watercooling loop. ...

Best of luck to everyone!

Even though it may still be performing as normal I'd still keep an eye on your temps and ESPECIALLY for any other sudden changes in the audible quality of the pump, up to and including the pump going...

SUMMING UP MY THOUGHTS

Well this was certainly a wild ride for me. I apologize for this taking so long to complete, but life just kept getting in the way of things. I certainly learned a LOT in...

Here are the stock results for 3DMark on this system. Not too shabby at all really, all things considered. But what happened when we overclocked?

Those are some pretty healthy gains...

THE CONCLUSION

Alright folks, here's the long overdue conclusion to my build log! I went ahead and ran some basic benchmarks on the system to see what exactly I could squeeze out of it before it...

gratz to all the winners!

The R9 290X holds its own against nVidia's newest offerings, but mostly at higher resolutions. 1440P and 4K are really the only place that an R9 290X belongs now. Even then there are a great many...

I see a lot of exciting brands in there. Whoever wins anything from this should be thoroughly pleased with whatever it is they get... and even if it's mediocre, it was free dammit x-D. Pure doesn't...

Yeah... this gets me pretty solid, not gonna lie.

Of those cards, IF you can swing the cash for it I would go for the FTW edition card. It performs admirably right now, and in the near future EK is going to be producing a full cover waterblock for...

Short answer: a reference card is one that is identical to the "reference" circuit board design that nVidia or AMD produce to show to the AIB (add-in board) partners when they go to make their own...

Hey guys, just wanted to update you all on what's been going on with the radio silence. I have been inundated with countless personal issues recently, so it's slowed down my progress with... well......

Same. I had plans that were going to revolve around X99, but it's far too prohibitively expensive for me so I get to stick with my 8350 for the time being -_-. Gaming is fine and all, and I love...

I'd go with Vengeance LP Low Voltage memory myself... of course I'm a little partial... ;-)

I wouldn't unless I were using the CUDA cores for Adobe software acceleration on top of gaming. Sure there's less power draw with the 970's, but individually the 970 is more or less only slightly...

Sweet Jesus that's an awesome deal. Wish I had A. the money to purchase one, and 2. the PSU to handle it comfortably.

I feel like this looks too good... as if this needs to be on a clear acrylic motherboard tray with a windowed right side panel to show off the rear of the board, with the cabling routed artfully...

It's true. Content creators are the only ones who can take proper advantage of all that extra potential memory and it's additional bandwidth... but even then for something like Adobe Premiere where...

Yeah the ONLY reason to get into this platform is if you plan on using those CPU cores (along with some GPU acceleration) to render video or music content. If I were to make a recommendation for...

Awesome that she's building her own rig. Great color selection as well. I trust you'll be assisting with cable management as much as can be done in the Prodigy M?

I wouldn't mind taking a look at this. I'd want to do up a water cooled build in it however as I feel like a case this size is kind of wasted on being used JUST for an air-cooled workstation with...

Thanks for the kind words! I'll be posting some benchmark results for this machine soon, I managed to get the leak fixed on that GPU fitting... turns out that after applying pipe thread tape, I...

Hmmmm... ya know I think I might have eventually thought of that, but I'm sad that the thought never occurred to me before... and I re-colored the damn screws on Silence Falls x-D. Now THAT would...

Oh trust me I'd love to get something like this going... that's a lot of pricey hardware though, and I doubt if I'll be able to get enough of it sponsored to justify me buying the remainder. Plus if...
