is this pc good ppl say its shitty and the 680 is bad pls give me ur honest and tell me thanks

Watch the language. - G

harinoorvirk28 · Apr 18, 2013

no offence but i think your friends don't really know much about pcs

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

harinoorvirk28 :

is the 680 good?

JD88 · Apr 18, 2013

It's a solid build except maybe overkill is all. What are you going to be using it for?

Also, I would suggest a different power supply.

What about it do they say is shit?

The 680 is often considered not a great value because the $100 less 670 offers 95% of the performance for less money. Aside from that, it's a very strong card.

You could also be dealing with AMD fanboys.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

the ppl who told me are guys that like hate me there not my friends ppl at school lol

JD88 :

gaming lol black ops 2 all the top ones thanks

USAFRet · Apr 18, 2013

Sorry, but your 'friends' are clueless.
And you're probably overbuying some things:

i7? Why?
16GB ram? Why?

JD88 · Apr 18, 2013

If you've built it, it will be great for Black Ops 2. Those people have no idea what they're talking about.

If you haven't built it, I would suggest saving some money by dropping to the Core i5 3570k and GTX 670. It's about $200 in savings and about 5% less performance.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

USAFRet :

well i want a pc that will be good for a while evrey year more advanced games are coming out soon they will be more better graphics and evreythng like that then i would need an upgrade on the parts if i got 4 gb i dont want it to start lagging and orther stuff etc

harinoorvirk28 · Apr 18, 2013

Joshua Lingam :

its a beast

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

JD88 :

its already built thanks

bignastyid · Apr 18, 2013

Ahh, they must be jealous. But definitely dont by the Crap Master power supply, its the only shitty thing in the list. Get something from Seasonic, XFX, or Corsair.

mclovits · Apr 18, 2013

Haha they sound like console gamers. That's a solid build. No need to worry.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

mclovits :

lol they have gaming pcs but not as good as mine one of them build pcs but not many there not my friends only ppl i know LOL haha

mclovits · Apr 18, 2013

Joshua Lingam :

Well it's a good thing you came to the forums haha. I can't even fathom someone saying a 680 is a bad card, I have a 670 DirectCUII TOP and it is fantastic (right about at a reference 680 in terms of performance). From now on don't listen to them. Also, tell em' to refer to Tom's Hardware once in a while, they have some learning to do haha.

mclovits :

why is it crap ? thanks

bignastyid · Apr 18, 2013

Cooler Master power supplies are(for the most part) crap.

mclovits · Apr 18, 2013

bignastyid :

I know they're not as well regarded as other brands, but this GX 650 I bought has been nothing but absolute perfection. Nice warranty, cleanly sleeved cables, and it's quiet. Plus, I got it on sale for like 60 bucks, good deal.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

is it hard to make my pc water cooled? what do i need to do in order to do that? what are the risks? thanks

smeezekitty · Apr 18, 2013

Joshua Lingam :

A real water cooling loop is tricky to setup from what I have heard. Risks are that it leaks and frys/corrodes your components.

You can get pre-made closed loop systems but their performance is not much better then something like a coolermaster 212 air cooler.

For PSUs coolermaster isn't too good. Go with corsair, seasonic, antec or XFX.

For mild OCing I recommend looking up the CM 212.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

and is my cpu cooler good i think i cheaped out on this Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo Direct Touch 4 Heatpipe Heatsink AM2 AM3 LGA1366/1155/1156/2011 [Reg. $34.98
im just pasting these from my pc quote lol

smeezekitty · Apr 18, 2013

Yeah that is a decent cooler for maintain good temps and will allow you to do overclocking.

bignastyid · Apr 18, 2013

The hyper 212 is a descent cooler. Cooler master's coolers and cases aren't bad, just the power supplies.

Joshua Lingam · Apr 18, 2013

how do overclock? is it safe? what are the risks and should i overclock? i heard the wires can start melting and over heat

smeezekitty · Apr 18, 2013

The motherboard and CPU are both capable of being OCed.

Basically it entails raising the CPU multiplier and sometimes the voltage.
It is fairly safe if you watch your temps while you do it.

There are plenty of guides online.
