    Use imgur.com. And just switch them to thumbnails.
    Playing since 2007.

    Just add a L at the end of the image name:
    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/tWP4mL.jpg[/IMG]

    Add L for a large thumbnail, M for a medium and S for a small one.

    Also, that is a really sweet looking rig.

    Have to admit I find the loop looking a little spaghetti there, but it's a lot of nice pictures you've got up there, and generally a rockin' build.

    It's not that uhm... Spaghetti-ish in person, in the pictures it looks a bit more confusing though, if I had another 45/90 degree Bitspower piece I would have made it neater, but sadly I did not have one :/

    That said, what do you use that beast for? :3
    Also, which viking-clan you belong to? Norwegian?

    Been working on my own machine since things got boring today. I'll try and get pictures up asap of how things are progressing.

    You've got a case that's like two times the size of a regular one and still had to externally mount one of the rads? :P And I think you've also got like twice as much radiators as you'd need, to the point where you're just adding more restriction on the loop. Not like it's necesserily making much of a difference to one way or another..

    You know I just had to find something to nitpick about . Great to see so much effort put in and generally, looking just all around gorgeous. I'm also very much liking the room with the view and all.

    Well, I wanted and overkill build that is silent, silence is what I was looking for, hence the overkill amount of radiator. I think I could actually get away with using just one of my pumps for this build, but I find that I'd rather have 2 pumps and reduce stress on each pump while increasing flow. Sadly I had to mount the Swiftech radiator externally, it wasn't originally planned so, but it had to be that way, I bought the rad/pump combo way before I even found this case so I had no choice.

    With the CPU maxing out at 60 degrees on the hottest core(the others lying around 56) under Intel Burn Test, and the GPU's maxing at 45 degrees under load I am pretty satisfied with the build. Oh and this is while it is silent, I love the silence <3

    So taxes came back around my wedding anniversary. so i decided to build two computers.

    Computer 1 (Mine)
    Motherboard: ASUS SABERTOOTH P67
    CPU: Intel I7-2600K, running at 3.4Ghz
    CPU Heatsink: NZXT HAVIK-140 CPU Cooler w. Dual 140mm Fans
    RAM: Mushkin Enhanced Redline 16GB @ 1333mhz
    PSU: SILVERSTONE Strider Gold ST85F-G 850W
    GPU: MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk GeForce GTX 560 Ti
    HDD: 250GB seagate (from the stone age)
    SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 VTX3-25SAT3-120G
    Case: Fractal Design Arc Midi Black

    Peripherals:
    Razer naga
    logitech G105 MW3 edition keyboard
    Asus 24" monitor
    Logitech G930 wireless headset

    Computer 2 (Hers)
    Motherboard: ASUS SABERTOOTH P67
    CPU: Intel I5-2500K, running at 3.3Ghz
    CPU Heatsink: NZXT HAVIK-140 CPU Cooler w. Dual 140mm Fans
    RAM: Mushkin Enhanced Redline 16GB @ 1333mhz
    PSU: SILVERSTONE Strider Gold ST85F-G 850W
    GPU: MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk GeForce GTX 560 Ti
    HDD: 250GB seagate (from the stone age)
    SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 VTX3-25SAT3-120G
    Case: some cheap pink case that she wanted.

    Peripherals:
    Razer naga
    logitech G110 keyboard
    Asus 24" monitor










    hope you enjoy. the reason why the heat sink is mounted horizontally is due to the fans hitting the memory. i had to modify the bottom row on fins as it was to make it fit but in the end it came out good. in the future i will add a couple more fans and rearrange them for proper flow.

    Infracted. Don't post over-sized images. And don't remove mod-edits.

    Nidor, Interesting to see someone else using a Lian Li PC343B case, was beginning to think I was the only one that actually bought one
    Although mine looks abit different thanks to the limitless possibilities of reconstruction of the case

    I have to wonder why you chose a lot of these things. I'm assuming that perhaps you need the 2600K and 16GB of RAM for actual workstation purposes? Or do you only game? Because in gaming your wife's 2500K most likely will do better. Also, does your wife need 16GB of RAM, or was it simply since RAM is so cheap, why not?

    850W PSUs? You both could have gotten away with 550-650 watt quality power supplies and had no problems whatsoever, 850 watts is simply a waste of money.

    I hope your Vertex 3 SSDs work better for you than they have for other OCZ SATA III customers.

    I built these rigs with the future in mind. the last rig i built lasted about 3 1/2 years. i plan on going SLI with both comps in the near future and thus the 850w psu.
    also the power supply is fully modular so its nice being able to remove un needed cables.
    as far as memory it was cheap and i though what the hell might as well. i am going to school for engineering so i am starting to use cad programs and such.

    as for the vertex 3 i have heard nothing but good things from the recent batches.

    overall each computer came out to about 1600 dollars each built by myself. so in the end it was a deal i couldnt beat.

    If you want to run SLI GTX 560 Ti, a 650w is more than enough. Especially without overclocking and only one drive.
