My PC - ATI 4870 X2 / AMD Phenom 9850 BE / 790FX (28/09/2008)

[lorenzol1996]

1:01 where did you get that and what is it called?

[arvutihull]

@lorenzol1996 - It's Thermaltake Hardcano 13.

[poopguypenis2]

Spider.

[HDGURU100]

kas jahutad cpu-d bieltriga?

[himdude11]

Is that a radio? 1:03

[arvutihull]

It's the Hardcano 13. It's a fan controller for 4 extra fans and also it can show temps from 4 of it's sensors.

[sheban518]

radio? rofl haha lol no man thats the pc itself... thats the case...

[arvutihull]

thanks!

[arvutihull]

more comments about my cable management and I will delete them.

[ssjpui]

Man! You need some serious cable management. Otherwise, your small case is gonna store up alotta heat! Its a good thing you have an AMD CPU since they don't produce much heat as Intel. Only two things you need to improve on, a new PC case (preferably Full-Tower case) and cable management.

[arvutihull]

I now have intel (core i7), and it's IMPOSSIBLE to do a better cable management with this case!

I'm thinking of getting a new case but at the moment i don't want to spend my money on a new case - it won't give me any extra performance.

[kadillacking]

actually amd runs hotter than intel trust me amd is all i buy but i have a few intel machines and they are freezing compared to my amd space heaters

[arvutihull]

They may be not comparable CPUs... if we compare Intel's best CPU's (Core i7) and AMD's best CPU's (Phenom 2) then Phenom 2 runs a lot cooler than Core i7.

[kadillacking]

that may be true. but even though they are the best for each company their is still a huge performance gap between them with i7 beating the phenom II

[FedoraFTW]

yeah but the i7's just plain murder the 955.

[trent1234108]

depends which 1, the core i7 extreme does of caurse but compare pricing $1000 vs. $250 for the new 965 .. if you not insanely rich or just wana spend a bunch of money just to say you did go for i7, but for average people, wy not the phenom2 965

[FedoraFTW]

why not just buy an i5?

[trent1234108]

i conciderd that, there good ad cheap for intel stuff.. but ther clocked at 2.66 and the phenom 2 965 are at 3.4 so i wouldnt have to overclock much..

[FedoraFTW]

it does not matter.

you can OC the 965 to 4.0ghz and the i7 will still do circles around it.

the i7 also has 2 MB more l3 cache which makes a good difference.

[trent1234108]

i know that, and it is a good point, if you were to get like an i7 920 with all that that fine, but not near worth the price of the i7extreme to me...

ive seen the 965 oc to 4.4+ so its not like theres a 4.0 limit

[FedoraFTW]

your wrong, the i7 runs cooler than you 965.

the i7 runs at 130 watts while the 965 runs at 140.

intel usually makes cooler cpu's.

[sgtheadhole]

*facepalm* thats the TDP NOT temperature

[FedoraFTW]

im not saying it's the temp.

the 965 uses alot more TDP.

kinda obvious looking at both the i7 and 965 that the i7 runs cooler.

[sgtheadhole]

you obviously dont know what your talking about, the 965 is at 3.4Ghz and the 920 at 2.6Ghz the 965 runs cooler than the 920 at idle

PM for links

and the 965 doesnt use alot more wattage than the 920, 10watts is nothing

[3t3rnalDamnation]

I have 965 and CNPS9700 Cooler.

It runs around 30-40C idle

and 50-56C on full load, so 965 is much more

cooler than i7 compared to the clock rate 3.4GHz and wattage of 965.

Intel Core i7-975 Original Price: $999.99

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Original Price: $199.99

AMD costs $800 LESS than i7.

And it still has better clock rate than i7.

AMD simply wins.

[FedoraFTW]

@3t3rnalDamnation the i7 simply rapes the 965, thats not saying the AMD sucks becuas ei have a phenom 940 that i fucking love and is faster than hell.

but right now intel has the torch with the i7

and you can get the i7 920 for 280 i believe that totally rapes the 965.

[3t3rnalDamnation]

Nope, 965 wipes the floors with i7 920.

Even 955 gets about 2000-5000 more benchmarks than the i7 920. Just search them on Futuremark.

[trent1234108]

my amds run cooler than my intels, so its not a deffinate thing, just maybe the pocessors that you particularly have

[mcdoyoyo]

cable management required!

[speedvaxer]

Ah nice I have the exact same monitor.

[kingsale993]

nice but i orefer Razer Lachesis mouse

[Agent47Hit]

nice! kinda like my which is coming next week but i still need to add 2gb more of RAM and ATI 4870 X2 and creative X-fi sound card

[nelsontolen12]

WOW nice gaming pc lock a my pc what do you ting of my ?

[arvutihull]

Thanks.

[duncan2k8]

Really nice stuff there. Video could do with some music though.

[arvutihull]

Nah I think that this vid is so short that there is no point putting music into it.

Thanks!

[Asbi12]

Lol thats a very nice Setup.

I have the same Graphics card and Phenom 9950 OC 3100 Mhz and I´m getting exactly the same Board =)

[arvutihull]

Thanks!

Nice stuff ;)

[Wigwahm]

Straight up gadget porn. Nice setup. Good CPU overclock for a Phenom. I don't dig the case very much, but that's my problem, lol. The cabling is actually pretty good too. How well does that Zalman cool? I'm looking at a Coolermaster cooler right now for my girlfriend's CPU, but the case she wants is the Zalman GS1000. I figured the two Zalman products might work together very well.

[arvutihull]

Thanks. My case sucks (it's too small and i don't want to spend money on new one lol). Cooler is pretty good compared to stock cooler. Coolermaster cooler should work in zalman case as well as zalman cooler.

[Wigwahm]

There's nothing really wrong with your case. I like the full-tower cases, lots more room. How are the temps on you video card? It looks like you might not have a lot of airflow in such a small case for that card which is notorious for getting hot.

[arvutihull]

card temps are around 80C on load. If I remove the 80mm aluminium fan what-s on it, it gets up to 86C.

[Wigwahm]

Damn Muay Caliente'! My 3870 is running 49-56C and I though that was high. I've never really though about buying an aftermarket GPU cooler before. In light of these 4800 series cards running hot, I might want to add some video card cooling to my PC shopping list. I've seen reviews about the 4800 series cards crapping out because of heat problems while playing games. ATi needs to do something about adding a manual fan adjustment tool in the catalyst software for advanced users.

[badh8me]

great stuff u got there !!! awesome rig mna ! keep on great work ! 5/5

[arvutihull]

Thank you for good comment!

[chryss007]

ma soovitan sulle razer mouse padi kui sa tahad midagi head . sa võiksid panna mingi muusika taustaks kui sa selliseid videosi teed oleks põnevam vaadata :P

tahaks ka sellist arvutit omale lol

[arvutihull]

See on nii lühike video et siia pole mõtet panna mingit muusikat.

[noobc4k3]

n1 mousepad

[arvutihull]

yes, i know that i don't have it :)

Any recommendations for it? lol

[noobc4k3]

only an idiot pays 40 dollars for a mousepad, and i am one of them:)

i have logitech g5 v1 + steelseries qck heavy

[arvutihull]

lol!

Is it makeing mouse moving much better, or will it be only waste of money?

[noobc4k3]

mostly for serious gaming like counter strike 1.6

[noobc4k3]

no need to spend that money when you only play crysis vs bots

[arvutihull]

i'm mostly playing UT2004 online and crysis multiplayer.

[noobc4k3]

a kle mu 4850 tegi samas testis 30 fpsi keskmiselt:D, mis ma palusin sul teha, sul oli 22 vms

[arvutihull]

ma tean. 4870 X2 ei ole kohe mitte mõeldud alla 1680x1050 resoga mänge mängima :)

[flamyderzweite]

only an idiot pays 1200 euro only for a processor

[15eman]

some cable management and your golden.

[arvutihull]

case is too small. There is no place to put the stuff lol.

[enemy71]

well hanent clocked mine more tha 5% tried 10% but then it goes up to 62C on pib but i have seen on the overclocking gyes that water is the deal to reach over 3,2 but a fan dont cost so much so its an easy way to get it up! ps some clocking is the deal on those nice and lovley asus cards i love the aod but for now im using the asus on 5% 2625mhz

[enemy71]

Hello nice you need the zalman to cool it down how much can you clock 10-20 % 3,0ghz?

the asus m3a 32 mvp deluxe is almost as good as the m3a 79 t-deluxe [sb750] otherwise same bus and chips like mine and going to buy the ati hd 4870 1gb and the zalman reserator gives the chance for maximum overclocking world record on fan is 3,7ghz

[arvutihull]

I can reach over 2,9GHz but it crashes after 3 minutes being on load. I got it stable on 2839MHz now. At least temps are fine - on 2839mhz maximum is 59C.

[Fightbird2013]

The mobo looks like mine

[arvutihull]

Yes, they're quite similar! Btw have you finished building your rig? It would be interesting to see it (in video).

[Fightbird2013]

Yes its finished but it working not so fine i must buy an new CPU cooler and than i will overclock it than i make an video ;) but thx for the demand

[noobc4k3]

tuus, hinnavaatluses ka hängid?

[arvutihull]

Tänud. Ei, pole viitsimist.
