Description

Since I've seen a couple of builds posted up here I thought I'd share my build of "The BEAST" which I did a couple of years ago and which is still going very strong. Basic Specs. AMD Phenom II X4 965 CPU ASRock 890FX Deluxe 3 MOBO Zalman 110mm CPU Heat Sink Fan Corsair 850W Power-Factor-Control PSU 8 Giga-Byte of G. Skill DDR3-1600 RAM Liteon DVD/CD Writer Liteon BD Blu-Ray Reader 3 Tera-Bytes of Hard Disk Drive Space. Creative X-Fi Sound Blaster Sound Card Originally: 2 Gigabyte Super Over Clock ATI/AMD HD5770 Video Cards in Cross-Fire with 1Gig GDDR5 Video RAM each These have been replaced by: 1 Gigabyte WindForce OC Version ATI/AMD HD7870 Video Card with 2Gig of GDDR5 Video RAM The single video-card blows the doors off of the two older cards even though they were in Cross-Fire mode and has the added advantage of much less power usage. For peripherals I have: Logitech G500 Laser Gaming Mouse which replaces the older Logitech laser mouse in the pictures Logitech G510 Gaming Keyboard which replaces the older Saitek keyboard Logitech 550-Watt 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System (Awesome for my video Games and Movies) All packed into a fantastic Cooler Master Cosmos S case with touch power and superb ventilation for my over-clocking needs. So, for those who were curious about my "Beast" machine there she is.

Congrat's, a fine machine and good to see it's still going strong. Maybe we should all have a go at this at least once in our pc owning lifetime :)

It´s great to see some people still building their own computers. Especially when you read so much "Post-PC" era and "I can do everything I want on my tablet/smartphone." comments. I had mine build in a local store years ago, but I zpgraded it and brought a few old PCs to "life" again myself. Spent so much money on camera equipment that a new computer (MB, RAM+CPU) is months away.
