Brand New Custom Computer!

brandonwh64 · 07-23-2009, 02:18 PM

On this build i decided to go AMD. My intel build was very strong but i wanted to see what the other side had to offer in there quad core department. So once i got it fully built i started overclocking and got all the way up to 4Ghz stable which is good but it got very hot with the Tuniq Tower 120 so i backed it down to 3.8 and left it there.

Specs Below

Highest overclock ive gotten

Nice! Always been partial to AMDs. I need to upgrade soon, my PC is becoming an ancient turd. Works pretty good w/ 2K Pro on it though.

Looks good.

Your cooling problem lies in your case. Those cases do not have good air flow. If you want to keep the case, upgrade to water cooling.
