Post your gaming setup!

My signature pretty much says it all (:
got a Logitech keyboard and an mx518 mouse<3

Just ordered this about 20 minutes ago for my girlfriend.

Case Corsair 600T White
CPU Intel I5 2500K
MB Asus P8P67
GPU EVGA GTX 580 (already had)
Ram CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB)
PSU Corsair HX650w (yay modular)
HD Western Digital 500g Caviar Blue
Cooler Hyper 212+

Hopefully it works out alright. Feels not to shabby for $814

A small note about the Level 10 GT.

a. Between shutdowns it forgets what you set the LEDs to. Every time you boot up you'll have to choose fan speed and LED color (including non. Defaults to blue for me.)
b. There are no non-hot swap bays that I know of, but none of the hot swaps can be individually locked so one can hot swap while comp's on without being at risk of unplugging your system drive. Can't say I like that.

Minor conveniences, but.

Gosh there is so many super smexy setups I am super jealous about.

[Tic Tacs]

Intel Core 2 Due E8200 (stock cooler @ ~54C)
NVIDIA Geforce 9600GT (stock cooler @ ~60C)
ASUS P5N-D
2GB RAM

World of Warcraft maxed @ 70-80fps while watching movies and browsing web.






I play World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and some other random games on PC. All run perfectly on my machine.

You won't be seeing those numbers in a raid. :P

About the same numbers during Firelands 10 raid. I'm going to post today if you want me to...

Do please, because that sounds extremely shady!

I like how he used a camera instead of just taking screenshots.

[Drunkenvalley]

Gotta admit the pictures themselves were pretty snazzy to look at.

[Fuzzykins]

Psst. Guys, in the top right of the first picture... Is that a link to a "Intel Core 2 <Cannot read>" page? >.>

Make the image smaller. >800 pixels gives infractions.
And it makes more sense, seeing your resolution and settings.

Looks great nonetheless.

[Cyanotical]

hmm, low shadow quality, in non combat

[Saithes]

hmm, low shadow quality, in non combat

Your RAM in your CPU-Z is at 1148MHz btw lol

[Fuzzykins]

Makes sense when you take into account a smaller resolution, no shadows, and a small cave-zone. (IE no area to render.)
Take one facing off the Uldum Dam or during raid combat in 10 mans.

triple channel, try again

[BicycleMafioso]

triple channel, try again

Ehm. Sorry, I don't see the connection.

[Cyanotical]

Ehm. Sorry, I don't see the connection.

the speed of RAM in CPU-Z is the speed of each individual channel, so for dual channel you double it, your CPU-Z sats 800Mhz, that means using dual channel, you have 1600Mhz ram

i have triple channel, so you multiply it by 3, not 2

[Saithes]

triple channel, try again

Why don't you fucking try again and keep up... Triple Channel extends the data width. The "DDR" aka Double Data Rate is what forms the clock speed. Each Data width(per stick) is 64-bit, so with triple channel it goes to 192bit rather than 128bit of Dual Channel. Double Data Rate is what determines the effective clock speed in which it can produce two cycles per clock resulting in your 1148MHz (574 x 2). The same applies to GDDR5, which is Quad Data Rate which means you multiply the base memory clock by 4 so for example 1500MHz x 4 = 6000MHz effective.

The amount of channels has NOTHING to do with the clock speed, only the data width of the RAM.

So, for slow people...

DDR determines the clock speed and has no correlation to the amount of channels.
Single/Dual/Triple/Quad Channels determines the data width and NOT the clock speed.
