  2. Windows 8 is fine imo. About the OCZ ssds, I did not mean to offend anyone...I have not owned an OCZ SSD before but I have been reading forums about a lot of faulty drives. It just got me concerned about the reliability of their SSDs. I would expect an ssd to last well over the life of a HDD. But I guess not everything is perfect. Also is OCZ in a financial mess right now?
  3. Hi, I recently purchased a new Lumia 920...And I'm really curious on what phones the users on OCC have! Please comment your phone and opinion? I'm really interested!
  4. Don't worry, Windows 8 will be fine! You get used to the gestures to multitask and all that...I find myself moving my cursor to the edge of my screen on my Win 7 PC sometimes lol...And sad to hear you're moving to console...May I ask what made you switch?? PS. Good choice on the PS4 The cost of upgrading my PC just grew too much. With a PS4 game developers optimize the game for that hardware which is common in all PS4s, thus providing the best relative visual experience whilst staying with smooth performance and this is often lacking on games on PC which are often just console ports with unoptimized additions like tessellation and SSAO which halve the performance and are often worked into custom presets like Metro LL. If your PC can't handle one of the settings in the presets then you have to end up lowering to a lower preset and lose out on options in above presets which you would be able to run if you had individually customisable settings instead of just a "High" preset. I guess you're right about the optimization...But It's really fun to build and maintain a computer...It's the cost that hurts. Well, enjoy the PS4! make sure you get The Last of Us
  5. Nah, he wanted 'the best of the best', he wanted a Titan, 7990 or 690 :/ And I was like "you don't need that much power for a 1600x900 res monitor..." lol. So the 7970GHz was the best bets, It is also future proofed... haha, yea, except I wouldn't have gone with the Level 10 GT...I really wanted him to get the Trooper but nooooooooooo...lol. Solid Rig, loads windows in literally seconds Gotta get myself a Samsung 840 pro... Or any half decent SSD, there are other SSDs besides the 840 lol. Alot of people don't realize that Yea I do realise there are more SSDs out there lol but what I meant was, the 840 pro seems to be a trustworthy SSD. I want to be able to feel 'safe' about my data lol. I recently found out OCZ SSDs are pretty bad in terms of long term use...Sad.

  7. haha, yea, except I wouldn't have gone with the Level 10 GT...I really wanted him to get the Trooper but nooooooooooo...lol. Solid Rig, loads windows in literally seconds Gotta get myself a Samsung 840 pro... hahaha!!! What's wrong with windows 8? lol, I mean I left that decision to him...He wanted to go with Win 7 but his mum told him to get the latest lol. I've been using windows 8 for quite some time now (on my laptop) and to me, It's pretty good, the main reason I like it is because it is so snappy. And Thanks!
  8. Thanks guys! It's always good to build with a modular PSU It is so easy to do a good job at cable management with the AX 760. I hope I'll be building more in the future! Oh and he was so excited haha lol, It works flawlessly.
  9. Hi Guys/Gals!! I recently built a computer for my friend! and it turned out well...lol. Anyway Opinions? BTW this was my first build for a 'Client' and my first Intel build. SPECS: Intel i5 4670k Gigabyte Radeon 7970 GHz Ed Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H Samsung 840 pro 256gb SSD (Boot) Seagate Barracuda 2TB (Storage) Corsair AX-760w PSU LG DVD Drive Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo 16gb Kingston Hyper X BLU RAM 1600MHz Thermaltake Level 10 GT Snow White Windows 8 Here are some pics! During the build: EDIT: More pics!
  10. Yes, that temperature is absolutely fine. Thanks for clearing that up, you have been so helpful to me !!! thanks once again!
  11. I used prime 95 for like 10 minutes and got a max temp of around ~45 degrees c. Is this good for an anted kuhler with a stock 8350? The noctua fans are pretty loud when they adjust RPMs and when maxed.
  12. Ok, so I installed the Y cable (was a pain to squeeze it through the upper grommet of the R3 since there were so many cables lol) and My CPU actually runs cooler under load :DDD. So I have my fans connected to my CPU_fan header and my pump connected to the Sys_fan and everything seems good!! My pump runs at 2700RPM and my fans are quiet. I played some FC3 and max Temp I got was 37.9 degrees C. So I'm happy thanks!
  13. Basically what I mean was, I hope that the fans will run a little faster.
  14. thanks Stonerboy !!!! I'll try that when I get home. Hopefully i'll see an improvement in cooling performance!!
  15. hi guys/gals, I have a problem , haha well I attached 2 noctua fans straight away when I received my Kuhler 920 and when using chill control I can't adjust the modes (extreme/silent) nor can I see the RPM of the fans and the dB level. Here are my options: Should I use the provided y cable (came with the noctua fans) to connect my noctua NF F12's to my CPU fan header and connect the kuhler 920 pump to the sys fan? or should I just leave it how it is? :/ Thanks for your support!!!! Edit: what would be the disadvantage if I use the y cable or option 1? besides not seeing or adjusting the speeds of the fan.
