Topic: So I ordered a PC Posted: 23 Sep 2014 at 9:21pm |
I waited for a while for the timing to be right on a new PC, and that time came. the new i7's, DDR4, and finally the 900 series are out. I also caved and ordered the Asus ROG Swift monitor.
The wait is gonna feel long, I can feel it already. Chassis Model: Special Deal Hot Seller - Digital Storm Apollo Exterior Finish: - Standard Factory Finish Trim Accents: - Standard Factory Finish Processor: Intel Core i7 5820K 3.3GHz (Six-Core) (Unlocked CPU) Motherboard: ASUS X99-DELUXE (Intel X99 Chipset) System Memory: 16GB DDR4 2666MHz Corsair Dominator Platinum DHX (Extreme-Performance) Power Supply: 850W EVGA SuperNOVA Expansion Bay: - No Thanks Optical Drive: DVD-R/RW/CD-R/RW (DVD Writer 24x / CD-Writer 48x) Storage Set 1: 1x SSD (250GB Samsung 840 EVO) Storage Set 2: 1x Storage (2TB Western Digital - Black Edition) Storage Set 3: - No Thanks RAID Config: - No Thanks RAID Card: - No Thanks Internet Access: High Speed Network Port (Supports High-Speed Cable / DSL / Network Connections) Graphics Card(s): 1x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 4GB (Includes PhysX) Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster Z HPC Processor: - No Thanks Extreme Cooling: H20: HydroLux Level 2: Digital Storm Exotic Custom Cooling System (1x Video Card + CPU + Chipset) H20 Tube Color: Green Tubing with High-Performance Fluid (UV Lighting Reactive) Chassis Fans: Upgrade Chassis With LED Performance Fans (Green) (Up to 6 Fans) Internal Lighting: Internal Chassis Lighting System (Green) Airflow Control: - No Thanks Chassis Mods: - No Thanks Noise Reduction: - No Thanks LaserMark: - No Thanks CPU Boost: Stage 1: Overclock CPU 4.0GHz to 4.4GHz Graphics Boost: Yes, Overclock the video card(s) as much as possible with complete stability Memory Boost: - No Thanks, Please do not overclock my memory OS Boost: Yes, Disable and tweak all of the non-crucial services on the operating system Windows OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (64-Bit Edition) Recovery Tools: Windows Recovery Toolkit (Bundled with Windows CD) Virus Protection: FREE: McAfee AntiVirus Plus (1 Year Service Activation Card) (Not Pre-installed) ($35 Value) Office: - No Thanks Game: - No Thanks Display: Asus ROG SWIFT 27 inch PG278Q (G-SYCN) (144Hz Refresh) (2560 x 1440 Resolution) I'll probably upload some pictures when I get it, might even do an unboxing stream/video. But I'll definitely be streaming more once I actually have it set up and ready to go, my current toaster can barely handle tf2. (also lol they spelt "g-sync" wrong) |

Congrats on the system, out of curiosity how much was the final pricetag without the monitor? |

That's going to be one awesome setup, especially with the display.

It was in the ballpark of 4500$USD without the monitor or anything to do with shipping I live in Canada, so shipping, brokering and customs was just under 1000$USD I'm stoked though, Stage 3 as of yesterday! |
