Wow, nice

[HiddenoO]

8GB RAM..?

Why waste so much money on fancy shit when all you need is a 4GB RAM Basic setup?
No need to spoil yourself with a computer when the world is going to shit.

[KABLE]

That mousepad is the shit and you know it.

[Stevenom]

Nice overclock.

Nice build, I would give serious OCing a shot.

My browsers alone use a couple of gigs. Not to mention my other applications.

Nice overclock.

If you are referring to the CPU-Z screenshot saying the clock speed is 1.6GHz, that's because it underclocks for heat/power when not under load.

Edit: here.

I was referring to this.

Couldn't tell if it was sarcasm or a compliment, sorry.

Nope, I just use my mouse with my left hand. It is a habit I fell into when using my laptop on the couch for about two years. I always sat on the right side, and the arm was too high to be a mousepad, so I used the seat next to me.

[InCognito]

Jealous of your cable management.

Lmao, you're kidding right? What are you running a Russian Wife Marriage Operation?

I don't even need a 8GB RAM with the shit I run. 3GB is good for me.

Shiiiiiit this thread just reminded me I was supposed to be sleeving my comp today. Guess I'll get on it now. >:C

Like you, I also went full modular. Gonna be fun getting every cable sleeved up though.
