Just a few final questions

IZZY_ENLIGHTENED · Mar 6, 2014

ok i'm building a setup (not bought yet) and i just want to get a second opinion as far as efficiency, compatibility, adding on, and gaming. i would also like to see how much it will ad to my Elect. bill every month just for Sh*ts and giggles

My setup is as follows:
CPU: AMD FX-8350 Black Edition
RAM:G.skill Ares 16gb 1866Mhz
Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula -Z
GPU: 2x Gigabyte 4GB Windforce GTX 770's
Cooling: XSPC Raystorm 750 CPU and GPU with 1 240mm radiator and 1 120mm Radiator
Case: Thermaltake Overseer RX-I Full Tower
PSU: Kingwin Mach 1 1000w modular

Thanks,
IZZY

Good choices , nice frame rates , not much on the electricity bill.

i like it all, except the case. That dislike is built on several historical personal experiences with Thermaltake cases.
Not the RX-1

Gee Bee :

Well what case would you recommend?

i forgot to mention i wasn't planning on using the pump/reservoir combo because of all the negativity ive heard about pressure lowering for a res i was gonna get a photon tube w/o pump. but im clueless as to what pump to get so id like some recommendations for that also

Obviously you want full tower so if you can afford it (twice the price of RX-1 :

I use this with 280x cfx and an oc 3570k and my top card usually sits around 65-70c. The lower around 62c give or take.

I have owned and built for others many times and this case has kept on going.All intakes are Filtered and are washable. This only needs to be done once a month (and my pc room is dusty). It is setup out of the box with an exhaust priority rather input positive air pressure but easily remedied with an addition fan.
No offence intended but i will never buy or recommend a thermaltake case ever.
