Nice first post. Do you have to buy special pants to accommodate your e-peen_

I LOL'd

After that post I felt like I was running bare metal. Feels like I just chipped out some silicone from some rocks compared to that.

On the bright side your rock chips are about $5k cheaper.

On a brand new laptop! i5 processor, 10gb RAM and 1gb Nvidia GeF GT 640!

i may have to play this on a table as iam getting a burnt leg with Homefront atm!

hey man , most laptops get their graphics cards burned when playing games with no proper ventilation, if u are indeed getting a burn sense then you are pushing the  video card to its extreme, u might want to have the thing ventilated - or at least have it in a manner that air circulation is not bothered - meaning have a big book bellow it - or a small table . in case u start seeing flickering or lines or color changes - usually to green , that might be your last warning.

I expected this from you.. really i did.. since you have a Brother printer and an outdated Motorola modem...

[WALSRU]

He swings back! I'll upgrade my modem when Time Warner pays for it. Pulling down an unnecessary 20mbps so I ain't complaining. Good scouting on the peripherals haha. I buy what gets the job done, doesn't mean I don't have hella disposable income.

I can appreciate uber-overkill though, really I can.

I am liking that Bitfenix Prodigy case, though!

However, do let me know when you want a real case..

[WALSRU]

My last case was a Phantom and I got sick of dragging it to LANs every other week. Full tower is a little too "real" for a case that travels. Your comment reminds me of Harley guys asking me when I'm going to buy a "real" bike.

Windstorm/Tornado took care of that rig anyway. Pretty happy with the itx box, never dropped below 60fps on any of my games, but I'd be lying if said I don't go to Newegg and hover my mouse over the 'buy' button on a 690 a little too often.

I'm currently using 4x Cougar Vortex fans on my H100 and holding about 52C on low speed. How fast are you running those deltas and do you have to wear earplugs_

That wasn't a very recent pic btw.. the wheels broke on it because it got too heavy!

Delta's are about 1500RPM... But still quite loud.. But at 100% - if my case didnt weigh so much, i think it would fly!  Keeps my 3960x (4.8Ghz) @ 28-30C Idle and 50C running intel burn test.

What's even louder is the unlocked 680 fans at 100%... would H20 cool.. but i'm a wuss.

Why a 690_  You would get much better OC and performance out of 680's... (nice clock on that 670 BTW)

Might i recommend this particular 680 - http://www.newegg.co...N82E16814162106

You'll notice base clock is 1202 and boost clock is 1267 (although some owners of the card report boost @ over 1300!)

The only thing that scares me is BRAND.. Galaxy_  If it was an ASUS or EVGA---take my money!

[WALSRU]

Because this is the kind of motherboard my case can fit http://www.newegg.co...=asrock z77 itx notice any potential issues_

That Galaxy is quite awesome, I actually almost bought that exact card. When I read the TechPowerUp review of the Asus DC2 670 I knew there was no real reason to spend the extra $150, at least for my purposes. Mine boosts nearly to 1300mhz, Crysis could run it but Guild Wars crashed at that speed, go figure. I like to upgrade about every year anyway, I take less of a hit and the mid-high range cards always sell quickly.
