Im getting this PSU (well I have it in my "list" on Ebuyer) May well "upgrade" to a 850W version which is about 30-40 quid more.

This is pretty much my list of stuff for the...
I believe I ditched that (temporarily until I change mind again!) and put 2 7950's in the basket.
BUT...the 7950's seem to be REALLY hard to find waterblocks in stock. EK only have a couple, Aquacomputer do a block too I think.
Plus 1 on the PSU front. Think I have a Antec 620W Gamer PSU in...
Fcuk sakes I have gone all Forrest Gump now.
"Ive come this far so I figured il just keep going"
So I had the case, cooling bits, GPU and new psu added in a basket and figured why dont I just do another full build. Que adding a CPU, mobo, some SSD's, Hard-drive (1tb for any "old games" or...
I HATE looking at "new" PC bits...always chopping and changing ideas! Keep changing mind on GPUs (skipping between 1 7970 and 2 7950's in crossfire)
Im now starting to wonder if the Elysium case is going to be TOO big for the gigabyte board. As far as I know the ELysium is designed for a larger...
Pretty much this lot

Il be keeping this long enough to cool I think, just seems a waste to cool a £149.99 card with £100 worth of block.
Currently have a £500 basket (bulk of that being new case and Watercooling setup) at OC sitting there waiting for me to press "order" and thats without a "new" GPU and block and...
Anyone want a graphics card

May sell mine and upgrade to a slightly better one to add a W/C block....More I think about it the more I think its silly to watercool that...I swear I only paid £150 for the card and the block is £100
That's how I'm looking at it. Always wanted to build my own pc and did that last year and thought about watercooling it at the time. A year on and I'm thinking apd it just get it done.
Much like buying a car you "want" but don't need (that's how I'm justifying it to myself anyway!)
Had a...
Dammit forgot about the PSU.
620W currently (Antec high current gamer). Done some calculations and "should" be okay (over 120W to spare) but that may well need updating sooner rather then later.
I've also been looking at sleeving (already done some of that in current set-up but not "full PSU...
With you on the fittings for the GPU.
I have an NZXT Sentry (desktop touch panel) fan controller and also a Zalman multi fan controller spare from a work project that will be coming home with me.
My future thinkings are going with the kit I linked, then if need be adding another 120mm or...
Right my current set-up is as follows..
Xigmatek Asgrad Pro Gaming Case (non windowed version)
Gigabyte GA-Z77 Motherboard
I5 3570K (overclocked to 4.2ghz easily)
Coolermaster EVO 212 cooler
Crucial Ballistix Tracer 1600mhz (8GB of) Blue/Orange leds
MSI HD 7850 Twin Frozr III OC 2048mb
Samsung...
Cheers for the links.
Whilst I'm floating about on here who is it that has the Xigmatek Elysium case? Want to know what its like for size (internally).
I'm looking to go watercooling with possibly a bay mount reservoir and pump combo. Think xspc do a pump/res combo
Thats my thinking.
Im actually thinking I could buy the above and then make a wooden shelf on the outside corner bit to house the PC, so its up off the floor but not on the desk. But then when the new modifications (watercooling etc) have gone in I wont be able to "look at it" :o
God dammit why is looking for a Computer Desk such a pita?!

Danny you can get a splice machine for around 3K nowadays. (know that sounds a lot but it could open up a whole new world of things for you)
I use a FITEL S178 which is about 7K but also...
