Picked up my case and monitor this morning so I was finally able to rebuild my computer with all the upgrades I got. Took me the whole day as I had to clean things out and pretty much take everything apart and put it back together in the new case except the CPU and RAM. What's Old: i5-3570k Oc'd to 4.3 GHz G.Skill 8GB DDR3-1333 RAM Asrock Pro 3 Z77 Mobo Crucial 120 GB SSD Toshiba 2TB HDD Cooler master G650m PSU What's New: Gigabyte GTX 1070 Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU cooler Game Max Falcon case in black (Full size case with two 120mm blue LED fans pre-installed) Crucial 240GB SSD G.Skill 8GB DDR3-1333 RAM (The exact same as my old ram for compatibility) 120mm Cooler Master Blue LED case fan Acer GN246HL 24" 1080P @ 144Hz [ Not pictured ]
Thanks. 4.3 GHz isn't fully stable yet. Upped voltages again a little bit. Thermals are fine and I'm not nearing the limit yet. Don't wanna roll back to a slower speed as it feels so close to being right. I spent something like 900 euros which is roughly 900 dollars now but I feel I got good value for money. And the monitor and GPU were about 650 of that alone. Edit: In just warframe alone, the game actually looks better textured despite me running the same GPU and settings before in my previous case.
I had to lower my OC to 4.0 GHz. *Shudders* I feel so..... casual! @icebalm :P One day I'll figure out this "extreme" OCing as you call it ice. But not today.
