guys this is my new updated corei7 rig which i recently made ,the idea was to use the cooler master haf 932 casing which i got , but being to lazy i installed it in this casing instead , keeping the haf for another project which i will be showing u guys shortly.

Before this rig i had the vento casing and the msi corei7 board and proc which i sold and got the ASUS P6t mobo and proc with 3gb ddr3 ram which i will be upgrading for a total of 6gb ddr3 ram .

then was the task of adding in the 4870 , and the psu one thing which i did not like is the lack of space in this casing , the haf casing was hugei could install the xbox inside it but never the less the casing is also quite good in its own way.

for cooling i did not add much just the stock coolers , had the small asus cooler from the other rig which i could not install as i allready intalled the cm-sphere which i got from a member . hence that goes in this case , added 2 more small 40mm case which later will upgrade with 120mm led fans ,,

i have benchmarked some games and taken some pics of the scores for ur delite , if nothing is clear i will post the readings as well ..

future projects for this casing are .

adding cooler master v8 or v10 cooler
3gb ddr3 ram










devil may cry 4 nechmarked , option screen and score and fear option screen and score ..

please note that nearly all games are at max res , fear was at max 1600-1200 hence could not go any further then this ...

as i had little sleep the last game i benched was fry cry 2 and crysis ..

and did the results speak for them selves over 100 fps in fry cry 2 , 1600-1200 max setings

crysis at 1600-1200 max setings gave an avg of 61 fps..






more is to come much much more , the rig will be updated with uv sleeves and neons , and uv lights once i get some time will over haul it , and they are more
behcies to come ..

You should be gaming/benching at 1920x1200 MINIMUM

lollll , well i do most of the time but at that RES , with max eye candy even the most beefy cards get the shivers , though i have never noticed any sort of a slow down in fps etc ,but i dont know on default irs always at 1600-1200 .

...regardless it a dram to play on it ...that is if i have time ..

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
