Author Topic: Building a gaming rig. An overkill one to last me a while.  (Read 2834 times)

I could do that. Not right now though. xD
I'll put together a list tomorrow afternoon.

:panda: Okay, thanks... You might have seen my other topic. I found a pre-built which looked good, but I checked the manufacturer website and it has liquid cooling and crap I don't wish to maintain.

Oh and if I shouldn't use liquid cooling, what should I use? Could you recommend a fan?
The case you have seems to have good airflow, you should be fine.

Okay. You're sure it won't overheat?

I don't know enough about computer parts specifically to give a trustworthy opinion, but I myself would play it safe and have the loud stupid fan just to be sure. Summers can be brutal here.

Doesn't this also have shipping fees for individual parts? Or even just packed all together? Maybe a pre-built would be best in my case.

2 monitors are gimped when the comp's purpose is for gaming.

How so?

It has 3 large fans and 1 small fan. I'm going to assuming the front and side fans are intake and the rear and top are exhaust. I wouldn't worry.

I've been looking at similar Samsung monitors. I want two though, but not to use both for gaming. I want the other for use when I'm programming.

How so?

modern video cards have multiple out ports sure, but no matter what you are rendering on eother screen, the power of the card is directly cut in half.
it dont matter what is or isnt on screens.

this will only matter for the most modern and most high graphic of games though.

I love the keyboard and mouse though ;-;

Also, do you guys think a 32 inch monitor is ridiculous overkill, or if it would be hilariously awesome?

K. What if I crossfired? Would that change anything?

well for monitors themselves ive always been a fan of samsung. they been good to me for years.

it would make it easier to keep high fps, to a point where you wont notice a gimp anyways if the whole comp is godly. but the issue still occurs.


its mostly an issue for comp gamers with mid level machines, that want the joy of dual screening, not realizing how they are loving themselves.

Are you considering shipping and such?

Yea, I've had my current Samsung for like 6 years now or something and it still works with little to no issues.

So do you think it would flip a stuff if I got two monitors?
Or with this setup do you think it's fine with two?
And I think I'm gonna downgrade the gpu slightly, and crossfire 2 so I can dual screen without a flipstuff. Could you recommend one?

does the most recent nvidia series have a dual-core gpu yet? they usually make one every time.
i prefer those over 2 cards
