Second Monitor - Computer Setup

When are u swapping out that cooler?

As soon as I save up enough money to water cool it.

Meaning custom loop or some CLC?

Better not be one of those pansy ass CLC units. Custom loop or nothing chump.

Yes custom loop :) That's why I kept the stock cooler, because I know ill get rid of it in a month or two.

Im so sorry!!! I know the cpu cooler is shit, but I'll be getting a custom water cooling block soon, don't see the point of buying a after market cooler if it's going to get replaced in about a month or two.

This computer setup is still in the works, I have plenty of thing to replace and buy. Ill be replacing the stock cooler when I custom water cool the system. Also i need to get a new mouse and keyboard, I currently have a $10 keyboard I bought from office depot, and an old mouse that I got when I first bought my laptop several years ago.

Why dont you start with the X-Star to take advantage of all the 1440p beauty your 780 will dish out, then add a second monitor down the line for secondary functions like Rainmeter and browser/social interaction.

Hmmm, I was thinking of that. Would I need another 780 if I run two monitors?

I dont believe so. Im running three monitors off Intel HD 4000, given two are 720p and the main is 900. I think a single 780 with a slight overclock can run whatever Nvidia's version of Eyefinity is for 1080p, while a second might be needed for 1440p. Im not that knowledgeable right now since Im too poor for a new pc.

That's the craziest motherboard I've ever seen.

Custom Desk ?
What did you make the desktop out of ?

The desk is made out of wood, forgot what type of wood though..

Please swap out that cooler! But I am so jealous of your mobo & RAM :( Nice setup

;) How much did you pay for your mobo?

Around $300 I think, I wanted to get something nice that will lats me for a while. Really liked the features and looks of the formula so I went with it.

Wish I had the money for it :(

Nice clean setup but where are your audio devices?

Didn't buy them yet, I recently got a job and this is where most of my money has been going to. Im not to sure what to get also, I know ill be getting the Astro A40, hopefully around February- March ill have it.

Why do you want a headset? Something like the Audiotechnica AD700x would be better for gaming; you can always buy a clip-on mic.

So where is your graphics card???

Its in the pictures towards the end.

Nice setup. So.. looking at the T-34, do you play World of Tanks?

Yes I do :) User name is: ShootinPutin95

Is that like a custom cover for your motherboard or did it come with it, I looked up the motherboard on goolge and no results came up with that cover on it.

Everything about that looks amazing on the inside and even the desk, then I saw the printer and started laughing.

Im a college student so I need to use it every now and than.

Nothing wrong with it, just seems out of place.

Ah alright, I did take a look at the picture and I have to admit it does look a little funny :)

What kind of case is that?

The case is a NZXT H630.

What desk is that? It looks really nice.

Really nice and very clean.

You should have titled your post "replacing the cpu heat sink soon" lol

Yes, I should of lol
