    Want to brag about your build? do it here!

    I feel like most of the hardware section has been people posting there setups so i thought why not just get everything in one spot instead? ill start with some pics, info and upgrade plans.


    Setup
    CPU Phenom II x6 1055T clocked at 3.5 Ghz
    GPU Crossfire 6950 1 GB
    RAM 8 GB 1600 Kingston HyperX 4GB
    MOBO 990FXA-UD3
    HDD Caviar green 1 TB
    SSD Intel 310 80 GB

    Pics

    Shitty pics courtesy of shakey hands


    Upgrades waiting to happen
    my upcoming upgrades will probably consist of some more hard drives so i can record some gameplay.
    will probably also end up getting a processor upgrade to something more modern like the 8350. The graphics department also needs some upgrades so if i have the cash i might very well be running a titan and 3 23 inch screens in the end of the summer.

    Well I'm getting the 3970 and ocing it as well. With my job they need somebody with a REALLY powerful processor for some graphics design and post-rendering software. Since I'm the resident techy-type guy at work, they are actually paying me the money for the processor so I can do my job.
    So no money lost for me. All the rest of the build is personal money though.

    Drop the second Titan and the ridiculously useless RAM. Unless you are doing some serious motherfucking transcoding (like multiple live 4K processes) you aren't going to go near that amount. The most powerful machines at work (3D, Compositing, Render machines for movies like Iron Man and Avengers) only just utilize 32GB and a Quadro 4000. Anything more than that is useless for anything other than live transcoding and analytics.

    My specs

    CPU: 3770K
    Mobo: Asus P8Z77-V PRO
    GPU: GTX 680
    RAM: 16GB
    PSU 1000W Strider
    CASE: Cosmos 2
    HDD: Can't remember + 120GB SSD
    THE ABSOLUTE GREATEST

    That's true, a second VC isn't really necessary with a Titan. Usually all my builds in the past had 2 mid-price VC's that add up to be more economical than one powerful VC. Yet the new Titan seems to be more than powerful enough alone.

    I've been saving my money up for a new system. I might not get ALL of that shit, because some of it is unnecessary. Planning on dropping the RAM down to 32 GB, the CPU to a 3930, and dropping the extra VC. Though the main build will stay the same.
