My New Rig

Falkirion · 10-24-10, 09:21 PM

Having decided to upgrade I went looking for parts which my friends gratefully helped me out with. This is the first build I've done on my own from scratch.
Specs.
Antec P193 Case
Corsair HX-1000 Power Supply
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 Motherboard
Powercolor Radeon HD5970 2GB
2 Corsair TR3X6G1333C9 6GB (3x2gb) DDR3
Seagate Barracuda 500gb ST3500418AS
Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB ST31500341AS
Samsung SH-B083L 8X Blu-Ray DVD Combo with Lightscribe
Intel Core I7 950
Zalman CNPS10X Extreme

Cost me $2,606 AUD but it was worth it. Best PC I've ever had, first I've built from scratch and gaming has never been so smooth.

Nice Rig.

Isn't it better when you build it yourself ?

You'll get alot of enjoyment out it for some years to come.

All that to play Tetris.
