Computer specs

I'm curious what other people here are using. For those of us who have multiple computers, just the one(s) you'll be running automation on :mrgreen:

here's mine:

for reference, the size of my graphics card :lol:

  • Corsair 600T Graphite White special edition case
  • MSI P67A-GD80 B3 board
  • Intel i5 2500k OC'd@4.8ghz
  • MSI GTX580 Lightning OC'd@980mhz
  • Noctua NH-U12P (the NH-D14 wouldn't fit over my ram's heatsink :'( ...actually neither does the U12 but all I had to do was offset one of the fans a little bit.)
  • 8gb (2x4gb) mushkin ridgeback ram
  • 60gb Mushkin Callisto SSD
  • 1tb western digital hdd
  • Corsair HX850 850w power supply

Re: Computer specs

I can't seem to find any pictures of my behemoth. But rest assured its demonically mammoth like.

Alas we come down to its heart...

xClio Windtunnel case
MSI 790GD-FX70 MoBo
AMD Triple Core @ 3.0GHZ
MSI TwinFrozr Radeon 6850 1GB GDDR5 RAM OC'd 1097 Mhz core and 900Mhz RAM
6GB Gskill DDR3 RAM
3 Hard drives (Two IDE and one SATA) Totalling a measly 637GB with about 30GB remaining...
Thermaltake TX750 Power supply.


That is my weapon of choice. does well for being on a stock cooler and and no oc'd love the fact that its a triple core and it can kill most other quads at a comparable level.

Re: Computer specs

Here are my 3 Systems:

Intel E4300 @ 1,83 GHz
3GB Ram
Radeon HD2600PRO


Intel i7-2600k @4,6GHz
16GB Ram
Radeon HD6870
Crucial m4 128GB


Intel i3-330m @2,13GHz

Seems enough doesn't it? I even have the spareparts to replace my i7 with a Phenom X4 955.

Re: Computer specs

CM690 case
5x Arctic F12 PWMs all tied into the CPU fan PWM for quiet idling + Scythe Slip Stream 120 PWM on a XigmaTek Gaia heatsink for the CPU
i5-2500K @ 4.5, 1.250v
Gigabyte Z68A-D3-B3 (no Quick Sync for me :( boo... Although I'd continue to use use x264 anyway :p)
8GB 1600C9
XFX non-reference cooler HD 5870
X-Fi XtremeMusic with the OPAMPs swapped for LM4562
Many, many hard drives arranged in a haphazard manner
OCZ StealthXStream 600W PSU (my Hiper 580 finally gave out after 5 years of continuous abuse. My Tagan 800W died within a year - although it was powering two 9800GX2s for a large portion of that...)
2x colour-calibrated 24" S-PVA LCDs (yeah, I know I should be using IPS for colour-critical work but I do have budgetary limitations :( )

Usually runs Win7. Can be spotted in Mac OS when doing graphical work or when Windows does my noggin in. Can also be spotted running Ubuntu when I'm compiling Android :D

Simples. Plus, it's nearly silent at idle. It would be if it weren't for that pesky PSU fan.
