idles at 70C in Syberia

I love it.

I was actually thinking of doing something like this but then I remembered that I don't care about how my PC looks nor do I make big purchases of parts like that. My hardware sticks to the rolling release scheme.

Still, very nice.

>>16199291
Enjoy your housefire OP

>>16199578
What's wrong with it?
It's not like if he had a huge case like the HAF X that he would suddenly be able to move his GTX480's apart.
They're not getting any less air in that case than they would in any other, plus they're external exhaust cards, he doesn't have to worry about them pumping air into the case.

>>16199506
I live in northern northern norway
1) no neighbours
2) it runs at about 40 celcius below what it would in the US
3) I drilled a few holes in the side for a case fan, and removed the metal grille

>>16199604
>>16199604
>They're not getting any less air in that case than they would in any other

They're either getting hot air straight from the H50 or that's pulling air away from their intakes, so yes, they are.

Also it's quite apparent he bought that shitty motherboard (and that shitty cooler) for that shitty build since they all got replaced when it went into a new case.

old pic is old

>>16199641
He changes his build like every 4 months, probably for fun more than anything.

As for temps, his temps were always fine, actually better than most GTX480 owners because he was able to undervolt and overclock his cards. And the fans have NO problem getting enough air. Normal GTX480's stay around 60% fan speed, his just had to speed up a bit more.

Hot? No.
Loud? Fucking yes, which is why he has all that sound dampening material inside the case.

I remember that guy who built the beige box computer. Nice guy and he mentioned the GPUs idle around 40C or so and the CPU around the same or a bit less, he also mentioned that under load it doesn't get that hot.

Bad build, doesn't deserve its own thread, are there any real guts threads going on at the moment?

>>16199764
Looks nice, I was thinking about making my own concrete box with an old p4 for some kick and giggles.

Oh looks, it's ZeroSkill again.

Wasn't he the one who butchered some Lina-Li case because he's a pro case modder or something?

>>16199291
>idles at 70C in Syberia
>Syberia

He only built that to win some hipster LAN competition about having the most power in the smallest case, in which case I think he did a pretty average job. but pretty much the next day he realised what a mess it was and put it in a proper case, but not after he had to buy all new hardware.

>>16199764

I want this.

>>16199791
Dude... that IS THE LIAN LI CASE LOL

caps for extra effect

>>16199764
what you made is a case that requires the motherboard to be 180 degrees from the usual orientation of a motherboard. Though if you genuinely did make it then I must say, nice job :)

>>16199324

Because liking looks over speed is ricer, right?
>gtx 480 sli
Nope, you're wrong.

>>16199589

It wasn't meant to be sensible, OP worded it badly.

>>16199601

My house is still intact, the build has been scrapped, and it isn't even OP's.

>>16199610

Stop hunting for attention that belongs to me, faggot.

>>16199641

The fans on the H50 rad blow towards the graphics cards, providing additional cooling to the cards' PCB when they get stressed. Stopping the fans with the case open made my idle GFX temps go UP.

>>16199687

Thanks, I'm nice to people who are nice to me :)

>>16199698

I totally agree in not getting my shit posted here(and on reddit, OCNet, etc) every fucking day. Still, it helps to think OP is massive mad&jelly to keep doing this.

Please stop making threads about yourself OP, there are guts threads for this, I don't care about the build just like I don't care about guts threads, but they exist for a reason

>>16199838

Except OP didn't build it.

Also, it forms just as it would in a normal ATX environment, problem?

>>16199865

You wish it was me, don't you?

Its okay, maybe one day you can get something other than BLACK WITH BLUE LEDS like every other kid in the world.

>>16199873

CM 690 II is superior in each and every way.

>>16199857
>Because liking looks over speed is ricer, right?

Yes that is exactly the definition of rice, you seem to be of the mistaken impression that rice involves LEDs. It doesn't. Your build is rice which makes comments of yours like:

>they just like how it stands out from the mass ricer fest that PC hardware has become.

... hilarious.

The only difference between most peoples rice and your rice is you try to go out of your way to make it obscure (although you still fail to be original) which makes the whole thing even more pointless.

>>16199901

You'll get no argument from me there as I've owned CM cases, but seeing as I paid NOTHING for my case, I can see a clear price advantage between it and the CM.

I picked a case I liked, I didn't build my PC in some bullshit old case so I could act like a elitist faggot on the internet. Those cases have bad airflow and aren't meant to house two high end GPU's, the guy who build that just wants to dickwave on the internet.

>>16199911
He did go out and pay out the ass for a new computer case for looks of function.
It's not rice when its just a free beige case he threw stuff in.

>>16199911
>doesnt know what rice is

Rice would be an insane giant case with LEDs and lights and shit. Retard.

>>16199937
You are absolutely 100% wrong.

>>16199936
but he did go out of his way to get a M-ATX motherboard, a H50, a thin profile fan and a lot sound insulating material for it purely to get it into a small case. form over function.

>>16199911

And yet you can't deny the fact that you've seen way more black+blue leds -rice builds than "rice" like mine. Which makes me less mainstream and more hipster.

I never claimed to be original, where do you think I got the idea from?

And the very definition of rice is the form over function, well guess what, I never sacrificed function.

>>16199937
And rice would also be spending 400 dollars on a plane black box from Lian Li that offers less functionality over a 50 dollar cooler master case.

There's nothing wrong with being ricer, everyone on /g/ is in some way.

Buying a fuckload of LEDs is just being a retarded 16 year old.

There isn't any wrong with Rice.

OP trying to imply he isn't a ricer when he is more of a ricer than most is however.

>>16199764
>had it powdercoated and cut three holes

Bet you're super proud of it, kid

>>16199964
He also got better temps with his dual GTX480's than other people did with their HD5850's.
We had quite the fun thread with all the extremely buttdevestated AMDfags.

>>16199934
I have black with red leds o.o

>>16199891
So you see the best performing case you can buy, have a problem with the fact that its black with a Blue power LED, and he's the kid?

hahaha wow, tripfags.

Please comment:

>>16199930

>>16199984
>He also got better temps with his dual GTX480's than other people did with their HD5850's.

Yes, because he's a liar

>>16199930

Get the fuck out of /g/ and never come back -_-

>>16199934

So did I, except I already had the case, so instead of buying what I wanted, I used what I had.

I never acted elitist, I've been nothing but nice and humble who've been kind enough offer the same courtesy to me.

>>16199964

I already had the board, and the insulating material, before I got the idea to use an old case I had lying around in the attic. The H50 was a purchase suitable for future builds, too.

>>16200019
Yes, he's a liar who spent an hour posting a bunch of furmark results requested.

Pretty sure that was the same thread that Skillzero went full retard and claimed his dual 5870's at 25% fan speed topped out at 65C on furmark, but then refused to post any proof for the next 6 months until people stopped caring.

It's funny watching people get the slightest bit of recognition, eventually they throw on a trip and start living off of attention, it's a sad way to go but it happens all the time with people, unfortunately it takes a few true tech guys who tinker with electronics and radio etc and not just the hacks like OP

>>16200019

Surprise motherfucker, don't talk out of your ass when you weren't here back then.

>>16200041

I had a trip back then, but felt I only got recongized because of the controversial build in question. I then went anon for the longest of time but have now decided to start using a trip again because of all these shitpost threads and samefag accusations.

>>16200064
Coming from the butthurt anonymous who just come in, act like a newfag, and float away pretending they didn't just make an ass of themselves, because they're anonymous and nobody can prove it.

>>16200055
>100% fan speed

Well that's what happens when you put together a shitty build, now put P95 on and let's watch those temps really explode.

Any decent build can stress the CPU fully and the GPU temps don't change, I see you had to stop linpack there in order to run furmark. Thanks for demonstrating your build is purely form over functional and just hipster bullshit at heart!

>>16200064

I bet you're OP. Atleast you're just as much of a tard as every other person here calling me a samefag and making these threads. Which is you.

>>16200078
What does "looks like we have a sleeper" mean?

>>16200094
So you think the less ricer thing to do is to go out and buy a new case just to please /g/ and have slightly lower fan speeds?

Sure is a lot of butthurt ITT

>>16200111

I think what he meant was a car term, where a car looks like shit on the outside, but has a lot of go-fast on the inside.

>>16200055
>4 threads of Linpack
>Furmark
>Quad core CPU

Go back and do it right this time. GPU temps will jump by 10 C.

>>16200094

Overclocked GPU's + CPU, Furmark + 7 threads of prime resulted in a 1138W power consumption peak and a straight shutdown of my PC. I tried it at a lan for shits and giggles, ain't none of my builds ever seen that much stress. And I stopped linx in that pic right after reaching peak temps because the sole purpose of it was to demonstrate peak temps at maximum load conditions on both the CPU and the GPU's separately. Surely games stressed them all at the same time, but never near anything that hard. I did have other pictures back then, and showed them here on /g/ too, but I've lost them since then.

>>16200148
Lol, notice how it is actually stopped already, even after 4 and a half minutes his CPU had hit 80C, his GPU temps would jump a lot more!

>>16200161
If it takes more than 4 - 5 minutes for your CPU to reach its maximum temperature, your case has shit airflow.

Which is saying a lot considering his case only has the H50 for intake and the PSU for exhaust.

>>16200148

You apparently don't know it all as you'd like us to believe. First and foremost, Furmark can max out 480SLI on a single thread. My CPU has 8, but only 4 were on when I took that pic. Linx wasn't running, so the 480's got all the CPU power they needed. However I was running furmark windowed, which didn't stress the GPU's to the max. Still, it was WAY more than any game I had ever tried, so I found it sufficient for demonstration purposes aka to shut up ignorantfags like you.

>>16200161

If you knew anything about linx you'd also know that running it makes your CPU top out in temps VERY fast.

>>16200187
>>16200208

The point was that it isn't even running. Poorly conceived build.

>>16200222
Building your rig for nothing other than circle jerking over unrealistic benchmarks, and going out of your way to spend more money just to slightly improve those benchmarks is fucking retarded.

That case had no problem keeping cool.

>>16200222

I used what I had and it worked fine, what else is there?

This is with fatfox and music running in the background. You jelly, OP?

Oh, and I have my GPU fan set to 56% because I can start to hear it at 57%.

>>16200295
You obviously don't know who he is, or what his current build is, or else you wouldn't be posting that trying to brag.

>>16200295

Good for you, my reference 570 ran ~84c/60% in games on stock settings.

However, I'm too old to get JELLY over material possessions. With that said, I have the same 570 here on my desk ready to be packed and shipped away.

Did you know the 570 is the only card from the 460/465/470/480/460ti/570/580 line that has INADEQUATE power phases in the VRM desing?
Enjoy having your card blow up soon if you keep running it like that :)

>>16200334
He has two 580 BlackOps Editions now, yeah?

>>16200351
No, that's Skillzero.

>>16200354
I've gotten my tripfags all mixed up since I dropped mine. What is he running now?

>>16200360
No idea, he changes too much. Last I checked he had a 570 as well, and I think was waiting on more, but he just said he's getting rid of it.

Skillzero also sold his dual 580 rig and is buying an Alienware m17x R3 to replace it.

This is now a tripfag circlejerk thread, by the way.

>>16200360

I'm on an 8800GT 256mb now, reference 1slot design ;)

But this is only a temporary solution, I'm hunting for a custom cooled 580 now mainly, but I think I'll wait and see if the 6990/nvidia dual gpu cards will bring their prices down in a month or so.

>>16200409
How many monitors are you using? It had better be more than one.

>>16200424

I had three, but I sold one and one is standing right there on the floor, unused. I'm also looking for a pivotable widescreen as a secondary monitor, helps a fuckton in managing browsing, irc, IM's and trying to watch an anime/TV series while at it.

Pic related, what was a month ago.

>>16200457
So now you're just using that Acer 22" or whatever it is? You should upgrade that before even looking at a 6990. Even my single 570 is overkill at 1920x1200.

As soon as I saw those sli cards more packed then a chinese elevator I immediately got this flashback

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7LrMoLba0c#t=1m57s

lol.

I had that idea of getting a shitty case and let people wonder in amaze on how its a motherfuckin beast inside, they'll ask how and ill just tell them I overclocked it with the house current. Its like a formula 1 car, soo overcharged that the engine is likely to last a few races

>>16200498
Well its a 120Hz 3D monitor, he needs to be getting 120fps.

>>16200502
OHMHFFGOD BWAHAHAHA

MUSTT HHHAVE AIIERR!!

>>16200498

A 23.6" 120hz acer, yes. Sure the 570 I used was over the top for most normal stuff, but running the newest games at maxed image quality settings and having your average FPS around 120 is a feat too big for it, try Metro 2033 for example.

Refresh rate (=smoothness of movement) is more important to me than the size of the picture. Sure I had a 2048x1536 capable CRT back 4 years ago, but fucking hell a 60hz CRT was cancer tier.

>>16200502

My stuff lasted a good few months before I sold it in the condition of flawless :)

>>16200511
Well, 80 FPS with Vsync. And I'm not sure if it's the same way with those screens as with anaglyph, but when I'm playing games in 3D, everything higher than 25 FPS or so seems smooth to me, and I find it hard to follow fast motions.

>>16200587

I never use Vsync, and I find running 3D with a single 570 to be an impossible task, if you want to keep the settings cranked to the max.

I'm also selling my 3D kit because even though the depth does offer immersion, it cramps speed too much and makes my screen lightbleed twice as much.

Im sure you can figure this one out.

>>16200907

Keeping all that housefire inside the case away from my apartment, and sound dampening.

>>16200884
his cards will overclock better, and his CPU stress won't impact his GPu temps directly, allowing for even lower fan speeds and better overclocks u mad?

>>16200960
His temps are from both CPU and GPU overclocking. He has two 480s and the other guy has one 570.
He also has an i7 where the other guy has an i5

He's not mad in the least.

>>16200960

He has a single 570, which will blow up pretty soon if he keeps running it like that and would get decimated in performance by 480SLI. No, not mad, just worried about him.

>>16200993
>worried about him

God damn condescending tripfags, you seriously are pathetic. just saying

>>16201018
Have you never read a single post that anonymous has ever posted?

>>16201018

Ever seen me be dick to a person who didn't deserve it?

>>16200993
Last I checked, if my card explodes from a manufacturing defect, I can RMA it.

>>16200988
My 570 is only about half as fast as his 580 SLI, but look at how my i5 is showing 47 GFLOPS in Linpack with three cores active, compared to 34 GLOPS for his 4 cores. With HTT turned off, his i7 is just an i5 750, and with HTT turned on, it's a fire hazard.

>>16201140

I had 480's, not 580, so you might be more than half as fast. However, I had HT on usually, just not in that pic (which is the only one I have left). I could run linx now to easily surpass your Gflops, but its not like I have anything to prove :)

>>16201223
It was a typo. One 480 is basically the same speed as one 570. Two 480s would theoretically be twice as fast as one 570, but with my 15% overclock and imperfect scaling, it would probably be more like 70% faster.

CPU power is purely epeen at this point, but I'm actually a bit curious what your i7 can do. What is your CPU compute power with your maximum OC with HTT enabled?

>>16201140
Man, my 4GHz i5 750 gets around 56GFlops.

>>16201307

Well here's one just for you. Ran at relatively same settings as you. My ram isn't maxed (2133mhz cl9 sticks runnint at 1600 cl8), nor is my uncore, or CPU speed. However that's all that is needed to beat you in linpack speed :T

>>16201585

You are aware you have to run the exact same version and the exact same mem amount in linx for the results to be comparable, right?

>>16201585
>>16201642
Look at my pic. I only used three cores because one was dedicated to Furmark. Here's four cores.

>>16201778

Apparently Linpack GFlops aren't comparable or reasonable on separate systems at all, care to try a different benchmark, say any 3DMark06/vantage/11 CPU test?

Something is clearly wrong here.
