    Anyway gratz on first boot, neat little rig there
    No matter how many rigs one assembles, it's always satisfying to see the baby whirr into action upon first boot.
    Oh yeah. I was so nervous when I was turning mine on for the first time as I had never built one before. Felt great to see it boot up.

    What a surprise!

    Got greeted by a bsod, when I rebooted it my SSD couldn't be found, it's under a year old so I hope I can get a replacement. I tried different sata ports, cables, power cables, my friend's laptop.

    Wooo, 5400RPM boot here we go!

    Tetris, thats the guy I'm living with's little brother :P

    If you can pick me up in Copenhagen then I'll get one for you :P

    /offtopic, talk on either chat thread or facebook.

    I'm not exactly happy of the Arc Mini, think I would have been better off with a Sugo 07.. Ohwell

    Nice setup, but do you really sit that close to a 40" 1080p monitor?

    The picture makes it look closer than it seems, When I'm sitting there, I am about 2.5 feet away from the monitor, I know that is still really close, but the picture to me atleast makes it looks like I sit like 1 foot away. Also a lot of the time I lean back with my feet up off to the side and put my g13 on my lap and naga on the desk to the left of me to play, putting me further back.

    It's still awfully close and considering that the pixel density is extremely low (lower than an old 1024x768 19") I would recommend a monitor change. I mean, even at 1.2 meters away, which is 40% further away than the average 80cm, one can clearly see individual pixels. You got a nice setup no doubt, but that 40" kinda ruins it for me. But hey, if it works for you then great!

    Finally got my first self-built rig together and running. Very excited and happy!



    Case: Cooler Master Storm Enforcer
    CPU: Intel i5-2500k ()
    MoBo: Asrock Extreme 4 z77 motherboard
    GPU: EVGA GTX 680
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance black(2x4gb)
    SSD: Crucial M4 64GB
    HDD1: WD 250gb blabla
    HDD2: WD 250gb blabla (dismantled an old external HDD and put it in xD)
    Heatsink: Cooler Master 212 evo with 1 fan only :S
    PSU: Corsair TX 750w v2

    Peripherals:
    Mouse: Razer Deathadder 3500dpi
    Keyboard: Some old Microsoft board (Incoming Steelseries 7G or 6G v2)
    Headphones: Steelseries Siberia v2 green
    Monitor: Old 22"? Chimei monitor running 1680x1050

    So I only moved the stock 200m fan from front to top and that it I guess? Before I've put it TX PSU I used OCZ ModXstream 500w and it worked perfectly and pretty silent even on 100% load. Any TX 750 users around? My fan seems to spin at 100% anytime and is kinda loud but bearable :S

    Well, I'm off to overclocking 2500k :P

    It looks very nice! Forgive my ignorance though, what is that square thingy next to the PSU?
    It seems like a little radiator or a tiny hard disk :3

    Edit: oh, seems like it's a little HD cage now that I see it better :3

    @AtaraxyDarkmoonFaire Indeed that is a little HDD cage, originally I've removed that for more space, but after wanting to add that small hard drive I realised I didn't have any more converters from 3,5" to 2,5" so I decided to put that back in

    Nice OC on that 2500k with only a one fan Evo Ninjaxl! I've been struggling to get mine past 4.5ghz.

    New build, slight upgrade from my old one. I haven't really done any overclocking yet, for now it's just the performance setting in the UEFI running the CPU at 4.2GHz. There are a few cables visible in the pictures but they're "fixed" now.

    ~10 minutes to install Windows from USB, definitely faster than my old system

    I had some sound dampening foam so I padded the surfaces in the case, to be honest I have no idea if it'll really make a difference but I thought why not.

    Enjoy!

    SPECIFICATIONS:


    PERIPHERALS:


























    Edit:

    Added, 1440p IPS monitor, HyperX Cloud headset

    Removed, Sapphire 7850, Logitech G110, old Sony Headphones. old Zalman mic.

    Looks VERY clean and slick Notarget! Great job!!! Looking forward to you making the OC stable and a real one and posting in the CPU OC leaderboards! Also - GPU if you want. ;p

    I REALLY like the look though, seriously, I took some second and third glances. :P And I love the little note open on your monitor in the 6th picture. You silly guy.
