hello all ive lurked on this site a bit and decided after days of searching and finding little help on my build thought id just ask, so heres what i recently built
case- coolermaster haf 922 blue "love this case, only mod ill be doing is adding one switch to the exterior for the top and back fans, light control"
mobo- gigabyte super 4 Ga-A75-D3H
processor- amd A8-3870 Llano 3.0ghz
cooler- coolermaster hyper 212 evo (temp hovering at 2 celcius right now)
ram- gskill ripjaws x series 1600 4 x 4gb (16gb total)
psu- CORSAIR Gaming Series 600W
hdd- seagate barracuda 500gb
os- win7 and later ill add another hdd for my linux addiction, hate dual boot (wei is 5.9)
and some cheapo multi drive, overall basic system but wow is it a quick one and soooo easy to add more , might add a couple gpus later on if i get bored with the integrated graphics but for now its more then enough, rocks world of tanks at around 35fps plenty good enough for me... i read the ram is supposed to run at 9-9-9-24 so i set that in bios but is there something else i need to set specific for this ram? for now i just want to get everything to optimal "factory" settings so i know things are stable, im new to building and a lot of the talk is foreign to me like latency and such
so yeah, what else should i check/adjust for the ram and apu? i do plan to overclock but gotta read a lot more before i attack that, seems like a lot to mess up so im taking my time, thanks in advance guys and gals, pics below
the guts
temporary spot while i installed all the sophware and such
and the window veiw
