    "Proof"? If he says he has it, he has it.

    Either way, it's an Alienware Aurora, and they are LGA2011.

    You should remember we've seen plenty of people post and not back up their claims.

    I asked before he uploaded the image and I'm well aware that an Alienware can have LGA2011 in it, did you forget who I am? :P I simply wanted to confirm he actually had it, low post count + new account as of this month could mean he was just upping his post count to reach that special 10 posts point.

    Hi Deltrus Yea the original image was way too large so I edited the post and recropped it some. Apologies.

    I just made an account today with MoP around the corner and figured I have been lurking MMO for far too long now, hence the low post count. I certainly plan on offering more in the coming months. I upgrade my system every 3-5 years usually and to this point I have always built my own, but I was feeling lazy and didn't feel like it this time so I splurged a bit and went the Alienware route this past month. Overpriced? Probably a bit and I know for the money someone somewhere could have made something x times better, but so far I've loved everything about it so no complaints from me!

    @innux I probably should have checked the pretty box and thrown SSD on it rather than mechanical but meh

    Edit: I'll run some benchmark tests and such tonight and post em if you're curious when I get home from work.

    Never heard of a computer builder willingly buy a prebuilt... much less Alienware, just because. =|

    But, to each his own I guess, glad you're happy with it.

    I am very jealous of this setup... This had to be very expensive with that many 690s and SSDs. Not to mention the rest of the setup

    Alright, let's take a breather before this goes out of hand. Love and cuddle for everyone!

    This is more or less a brag thread, and at times people will post setups that simply isn't theirs just to get attention. If you suspect this; ignore the post. Don't call the poster out by saying "post proof" or "you're full of shit" - that just causes unnecessary drama and who wants that?

    And for new posters - we want pictures! I know there is a 10 post limit, but you can still post broken links and a moderator might very well fix it for you. Only got a crappy cellphone camera? We don't care - we still want pictures! Just remember to use thumbnails :-)

    And if you suspect someone of trolling - always report them.

    Alright, let's all have a good time in this thread!

    To go along with Marest's above post, www.imgur.com has some very easy thumbnailing features and is the most suggested image hosting website on all of mmo-champion, by the posters, of the posters, FOR the posters. Besides, imageshack and others have pop ups, ads, and open up extra windows. How annoying!

    to go along further, pictures are more than proof, and thats not the main reason they are asked for, it's because we have all seen this:

    2500k
    p67/z77
    7970/680/670
    H80/NH-D14
    HAF/600t

    thats pretty common for a gaming machine, so pictures show others how you built your's and what makes it different, and may provide inspiration to others when they build theirs

    Everything is working as it should at the moment, i've built it almost 1 month ago.

    Let's see...

    3570k
    Sabertooth Z77
    Corsair HX 650W
    Corsair Vengeance LP 2x4GB
    CM Hyper 212+
    And.. ASUS DCII GTX 580?

    And the case looks to be a Cooler Master case, perhaps the HAF X?

    (Also, thanks for the cell-phone pictures!)
