Looks to be a pretty sweet setup.. although I would have gone with 16GB of RAM, considering how cheap it is these days but, if its just 2x4Gb sticks then you can upgrade in your own sweet time.

Noticed you went for Win7 which is cool as well.. I'm running on Win8 and as long as you don't use "Metro" its a fairly decent improvement on Win7.

Actually that must be atypo I got 16gb of ram!

It's not like ME needs a good PC. The games look pretty bad on PC as well, specially a lot of the textures are just pathetic or the 2D smoke from the smoke grenades, that looks like you jumped back in the 90s.

[MELegendN7]

true, But I just enjoy mass effect and always wanted to build a really kick ass computer!

[voteDC]

A bit of overkill for Mass Effect though, I ran the series maxed out at 1680x1050 with a Pentium-D 2.8ghz, 2gb of RAM and a 8600GTS.

Thankfully I've upgraded since then but your new PC still makes mine look like it runs on steam-power.

[MELegendN7]

LOL.. this is my first build Neofelis.. what would you suggest im open to changes!
Votedc, I don't intend to only play mass effect.. im switching all my games over to pc. I have quite a stack, but Mass Effect is my game. 1.2.3. The whole series ive played so many times it never gets old..

[MELegendN7]

No I do not intend to do any of that lol..

How do you overclock>?

[TldozierPcMan]

Great! system..in my experience you can never have enough power! ...for gaming in general.
My System: Intel® Core ™ 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 8.00 of Ram
2 ATI (AMD) 4800 Series run CrossFire Mode, 64gb SSD

if you have to overclock a system it's clearly a crappy one , the best systems and sometimes the cheapest are simply the ones who handle everything without overheating and over bashing the crap out of it.

Over Clocking is 99.99% of the time a VERY BAD ideea and can only lead to hardware damage/loss. Every time you overclock a piece of hardware it loses some of it's life expectancy and so makes it that if you OC your graphics card that has a 4 year warranty you may end up with it dead in 6 months even if everything ends up fine and you don't burn it , it will die a lot faster and possibly take other parts of your system with it.

I work with computers for over 14 years and this is good advice , don't overclock your PC hardware , even if they tell you to do it or if it's written on the box itself that it came out of the factory with an overclocking tool , just don't do it , better buy a more potent piece of hardware that can do exactly what yours would do overclocked and only costs 10-20$ more.

If you have to ask, then my first advice is, don't do it alone. OC obviously has immense potential to screw up your PC, like making your CPU going up in smoke. Be wary you forfeit all guarantees by tinkering with your components and contrary to poular belief, it is NOT hard at all for manufacturers to find out if any defunct part you send them to replace happened to get defunct by outside tinkering if they care enough to test for that stuff (just as a little headsup as a lot of people say "just do it and if it doesn't work, ask for a replacement").



This here is a neat beginners guideline to what overclocking does and how to do it.
But even if you memorized it, I would suggest to only do it with an experienced OC'er supervision (friend), because sticking to the manual can only go so far if you know what I mean.



Also, my offer to tell you exactly where the system could have been optimized or properly synergized (I know, won't help in retrospective, but I think it's always helpful for a future time!) still stands. I just took your absence from this topic as a sign of being uninterested.





Lastly, in the immortal words of Tim Taylor:

Moar powah *nyarrarrarr*



edit://
Obviously, IF you want the above you have to answer my previously stated questions:

Neofelis Nebulosa wrote...

Do you use your PC for professional applications like 3D modelling or en-/decoding large amounts of data?

Do you intend to do massive overclocking (25% upwards OC)?

To answer your question.. no I do not use it for any of that at the moment.. but maybe I should beings I can now lol?

Cool thanks for the advice.. maybe I should build another rig to overclock like an old fast car.. and keep this one I got in good shape.
