    This thread is for showing off your computer :)

    Overclocked, water cooled or whatever!

    My system:

    Motherboard; Asus p7 P55 LX (the poor people version) Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 3
    Ram: 8GB DDR3 16GB DDR4 Corseair Vengence LPX
    CPU: i7 860 Overclocked to 3.3Ghz (trying to work out how to get to 4Ghz) i7 6700k @4GHz stock
    GPU: AMD R9 290 Overclocked to 1144mhz 1185mhz (core @ 984mV), 1352mhz 1554mhz(Memory)
    SSD: 120GB Hyper FuryX

    Fully water cooled, CPU uses a Cooler master 120v (mounted in 5.25 bay), GPU uses a ghetto custom system, mainly consisting of thermaltake stuff raped together with hardware store parts to make it fit on the EK waterblock.
    GPU Radiator and pump are externally mounted, on top of the case. GPU with overclock doesn't go much over 40c full load.

    Closed up it looks a hell lot neater, this was taken while I was testing it.

    Surprisingly it doesn't leak! The Waterblock uses much larger pipes than the pump and radiator..

    I'll join in. No pictures though. Its just an old school tower

    Asus Z87M-PLUS
    i7 4770K oc to 4.5Ghz
    32GB DDR3
    GTX 760 :rolleyes:

    Its aircooled with a Noctua NH-D14. The CPU can go higher but can't keep it cool under load.

    Gaming rig 1/3
    Cpu: 9590
    Gpu: Fury X
    Mobo: Crosshair V Formula Z
    Ram: AMD R9 16gb 2400
    HDD: 5tb
    SSD: 500gb Crusial M5, AMD 480gb
    Rads: 480mm rad, xspc 240mm rad
    Pump/Res combo: XSPC Photon
    CPU Block: Apogee XL
    GPU Block: Heatkiller with backplate
    Vrm block: EK-FB ASUS C5F-Z

    The case is a Haf X case which was never meant for water cooling parts, though you could fit a single 380mm rad in, I fit in a total of 720mm worth of rad by cutting out quite a bit of metal.

    Ended up replacing those fans with silent 20mm tall fans

    Seeing as you use a vrm block, I'm assuming you are overclocked?

    That rad looks cool, like a mini reactor thingy :3
    .--

    Do AMD still make the furry X?
    I didn't know they made ssd's?

    I'm going to be swapping the 290 with a 1080 (ti if they make one soon).

    I kinda want to swap the case out with a EATX server tower from 1999 or about (has to be ugly beige) so I can fit the rad inside :)

    its my favorite part of the build. I need to replace the led with a red one though!

    They def still make the fury x. but not in large quantities. Most likely production will stop soon though.

    1080ti should be coming out in january I hear btw.

    And I would highly recommened the eatx case! Might I recommend: http://www.shopgoodwill.com/auctions/Custom-Build-AMD-x6-1090T-32-GHz-4GB-RAM-Desktop-33896522.html
