    Desk is way too small to fit that build, it's poking out :P. But atleast it's a metal desk with solid framework and doesn't look like it'll budge anytime soon.

    Also are gamecoms? Bleeehhhhhwwww do some justice to your ears man :S

    That being said, I am toying around with the idea of adding two more U2412Ms around Christmas, make a NVIDIA surround setup.

    Just have a set of matching monitors and some cable management and it can look very tidy :P I think I made my dual monitor setup look tidy. Back when I had two different monitors it looked kinda bad but I did not mind so much due to finding use for the screen estate.

    Wait what? First let's check some stuff, you got the i7 ivy brdige clocked at 4,6 ghz without running REAL liquid? I mean at 3,5 ghz it should be 45c and if you really managed to get it up to 4,6 ghz without running over 80c please post picture, becuase every guide exlains their temps with ivy at just lower than 80c at 4,3-4,4 ghz. Second, why would you have home premium even though your total GB ram (with Vram) is 18gb? home premium supports maximum of 16 gb ram. so you're getting only 14gb ram and 2 g vram. Make no sense to me hurt cuz money wasted

    edit: Okay I'm gonna be constructive instead.

    1) Ivy Bridge is perfectly fine at 80-90c peaks. TJmax is 105c. And I seriously doubt it gets anywhere near that during gaming at 4.6ghz, H80 is perfectly viable for cooling it.
    2) What does Home Premium have to do with RAM? It supports up to 16gb, that's how much he has.
    3) You don't simply add video memory to system memory, they work seperately and do different things.
    4) No money was wasted.

    The only questionable things in that build is the PSU and SSD.

    Isn't money wasted.
    Windows 7 HP 64bit only supports 16GB of RAM, but VRAM is not included in that.

    I do believe the 16GB limit really only applies to system RAM. Let me google..

    Update: loving my new Ivy Bridge so far. It does 4.7Ghz well, and that's with HT off for when I'm gaming. Been stable for past week on all the games I've thrown at it, including WoW, BF3, Skyrim and DB3. I do a lot of work with adobe software, so I turn HT back on as well as upping the voltage to 1.26v for when I do need it

    the H80 is more then enough for any bridge chip, whose of us who still use component loops do it for fun, not need

    his ram is fine, 16 on home premium with whatever for GPU still works, if he is only gaming then yes there is some waste there, but it's not that big of an issue considering how cheap ram is

    My full desk pic I posted a few pages back, but this is my finished PC... They closed my build log.

    Ok so I tried my best. I got my 24 pin white sleeved, and tried to clean up some wires.

    Little angled... Prob my favorite shot of it though! All Led's are on in that pic.. but I think i used my flash.

    Finally outer shot of full case w/ front.

    I have a change incoming on my build one of these days, I will be swapping out my smallest radiator for a slightly larger one. Slightly.
