ATI's Black Box Game PC V2

[wowhead3000]

im going to get the same mouse and keyboard May 17 2011

[TheEGGtech]

i like your choice in keyboard *i have one* :)

[vicous707]

Dam do u have dust filters? You must like to clean ur box a lot.... cause I have to clean my desktop every 2 months

[TheLordofConvix]

this is sooo cute ;)

[devilangel266]

the theme song fits perfectly, whats the name??

[raketenDK]

r the enermax fans more quit than the zalmans?

[apol657]

Finally i found the song!!! Dance Dance Party (Musicshake) I had to look all Audioswap song of this genre and artist with length from 3:30 to 3:35 to find it... I guess it would be easier for the uploader to find it but whatever... anyways enjoy people that you were looking for it :D

[bineverlast]

Only rich nerds buy Asus' [Republic of Gamers] products.

[JayEff97]

All case fans are intake, creates positive air pressure. And the only exhausts are on the PSU and grafx card? I hope you're running those 4 fans at low speeds. Cuz positive air pressure in some cases are bad.

^my only concerns^. Other than that, you have a killer LANbox, err, Black Box. xD

[kosard212]

how much did this cost? because  if its in the $1000-$1500 range, im going to get one, looks sick. plus i love ati

[Sn0wMaN132]

can you fit the H70 in this cas?

[poephoofd1986]

@Sn0wMaN132 i think so :)

[shyboy2cute]

so what are new temps with that new H50?

[poephoofd1986]

@dionusmusic erm.... 

[sirslobalot]

this = Skynets deadliest weapon

[poephoofd1986]

@sirslobalot LOL

[AirSpeed92]

nice i am having a nice pc 7 months old (special costumed for gaming) but when i started go and play on steam games like cod tf2 and stuff i saw it laagg a bit and it where running slow some times i want too get that away soo i have decided too wish for money for xmus and get some of my friedns help me with decideing wich parts i should get i am gonna get a new virus protection - gonna buy Kingston ValueR. DDR3 1333MHz 2GB, CL9 to get more giga ram and some other stuff so i can game for full yea

[TJ07Temjin]

What temperature are you getting that your cpu. Whats your voltage and clock speed?

[XJ6NYamaha]

nice PC. what is the name of music??? THANKS

[poephoofd1986]

@XJ6NYamaha don't know, many ppl have asked already, i just picked a song from the list...

[chuckxnor1s]

What processors can the liquid cooling support? Since I have a 3.7 ghz quad core and I'm thinking about buying an H50.

[poephoofd1986]

@chuckxnor1s H50 is fine, H70 is better.

[MICKMOFFAT]

how big are the temp diffrences now from the cooler you had before to the H50???

[poephoofd1986]

@MICKMOFFAT only a few degrees, not much, but the H50 doesn't take up a lot of space compared to a big air cooler like the mugen 2 or the 120 extreme and it's more quiet. I don't really care about a few degrees more or less, quiet PC is more important to me :-)

[poephoofd1986]

@MICKMOFFAT H50 was slightly better, but a lot more quiet!

[simp1234579]

seriously nice computer looks great. btw what the song?

[0nkelD0kt0r]

nice system buddy. these enermax appolish fans look so awesome and your ram looks also very nice but do you have no dvd drive in it? do you use an external one?

[poephoofd1986]

@0nkelD0kt0r Hey dude, thnx! And yes, I use an external drive from Asus works great. Saves up a lot of space in your case!

[Xenoforce8909]

Hoe bevalt die NorthQ fan tegenover de Enermax apollishes?

Ben namelijk ook van plan deze te kopen maar twijfel nogal tussen de Enermaxen en die NorthQ.

(Trouwens, heb je die temp, diode al verwijderd uit de apollishes? Zonder die diode presteren ze duidelijk beter denk ik.)

[poephoofd1986]

@Xenoforce8909 Heb de enermax net allemaal verkocht, maar ze zijn meer om te posen dan performen zeg maar ;) je kunt beter een scythe slip stream halen, relatief stil maar wel een van de beste luchtverplaatsing en kosten geen drol.. die northq is vrij stil en heeft een alu block omhulsel, blijft lekker koel.. maar denk toch dat de scythe beter is overall

[Xenoforce8909]

@poephoofd1986 ok bedankt, ben ook meer een fan van scythe ;)

Ben van plan om een NZXT Phantom black te nemen en daar kan je in het zijpaneel 3 fans kwijt (2x 120, Enermax. 1x200mm, CM megaflow of Xigmatek 200mm fan) de 200mm zal wel genoeg lucht verplaatsen voor het mobo en dan kun je net zo goed 2 mooiere maar minder presterende fans nemen dacht ik.

nogmaals bedankt voor je advies!

[ArtDamage911]

Awesome rig! I like how you went for mediocre peripherals and kick ass internals/ case. Again, kick ass rig!

[poephoofd1986]

@ArtDamage911 thnx man :-)

[ArtDamage911]

@poephoofd1986 welcome... how do you like the H50?

[poephoofd1986]

@ArtDamage911 the H50 is good for a compact watercooler, i got it for about 50 euro's when it just was released, very high value. Good cooling and quiet fan(s). I use only 1 fan now (push), push pull gives me like an extra 4-5 degrees off.

[wwwwwoooeeee]

amazing mate :)

[HolelessProductions]

holy shit i wish i could afford that :(

[poephoofd1986]

@HolelessProductions safe some money and go for it? it wasn't that expensive...

[theomega831]

i am a green camp person now, but I hope one day ati and nvidia ppls can get along. pls dont hurt me O.O

[poephoofd1986]

@theomega831 LOL i have no problem with the green camp XD

[DHRPCGV]

waar is de deur van je nzxt rogue gebeleven?

of past dat niet in combinatie met het asus OC station?

[poephoofd1986]

@DHRPCGV Die had ik eraf gehaald omdat je anders de OC station niet kon zien, maar het past wel hoor alleen moest dan het deurtje steeds open staan, vond dit handiger zo. Maar heb inmiddels een andere kast!

[jessenl93]

Ziet er netjes uit! 1 vraagje is deze pc beter dan de predator pc? want ik heb mijn predator pc 2 dagen geleden besteld! en deze ziet er zeker weten mooier uit dan de predator!

[DHRPCGV]

@jessenl93

als je de acer predator bedoelt, dan is deze veel veel veel beter.

je moet nooit complete pc's kopen, samenstellen is veel beter.

grote merken zoals acer en hp besparen op allerlij onderdelen, waardoor je zwakke schakels krijgt.

[jessenl93]

@DHRPCGV Oke bedankt ;)

[emmillug]

Could you please upload the song as an mp3?

[poephoofd1986]

@emmillug just use a youtube ripper and select MP3 only ;)

[AllKidsOutNow]

why have an i7 why not a Phenom II x6? if its supposed to be so Ati themed you would get better performance!

[poephoofd1986]

@AllKidsOutNow True but the Intel CPU's are just the better choice at the moment. I hope AMD can strike back soon because I want to try the AMD platforum for a while now but no CPU has really triggerd me yet.

[thegreyvingian]

Steam ID?

[thegreyvingian]

Razer Tarantula Voodoo Edition? Match your mouse?

[poephoofd1986]

@thegreyvingian yes but that keyboard is very hard to find for sale!!!

[AnDaTeSa]

awesome build what was the total it came out to at the end?

[poephoofd1986]

@AnDaTeSa sorry for the late reply, I have no idea actually.. I upgraded bit by bit, didn't buy it all at once :)

[Vortex1988]

I'm surprised your computer doesn't overheat from being in such a small case, but I guess the H50 would definitely help with that.

[poephoofd1986]

@Vortex1988 it's pretty large for a SFF case actually, besides it has 5 spots for 120mm fans so the cooling is more than enough. H50 is great value for it's money I agree!

[acer0169]

@Vortex1988 Having a small case means fuck all to heat as long as you have good airflow. Infact.. some small cases will be better than full-tower cases because the small case can replace it's air volume each second where a large case takes 5 or so seconds..

[Vortex1988]

@acer0169 That's true. I never really thought about it that way.

[Jamestheacergamer]

what case is this? i am wanting to build a lan box but can't find a suitable case to use with one, any suggestions?

[poephoofd1986]

@Jamestheacergamer please look in the description, all my specs are there

[itchyfingers89]

Are you using intake or exhaust for the H50? Also, was it a push-pull?

[poephoofd1986]

@itchyfingers89 outtake, i dont want hot air in my case... i tried both, outtake was better in my case..

[itchyfingers89]

@poephoofd1986 Are you using one or two fans for the outtake/exhaust? Are the RPM controlled by the motherboard or do you have a switch for the speed?

[feratomix69]

woah mate, that looks awesome, very nice and clean cable routing, plus the very high end stuff, by the way those enermax multi leds fans are expensive too :S but they looks pretty cool, is that some new model of logitech speakers? cuz i see the receiver from the z5500 but the speakers looks somewhat diferent ?

Peace!

[poephoofd1986]

@feratomix69 Thnx :) I got those fans for like 15 euro's a piece, but all good, very nice.. No it's just the old Z-5500, but I have the dust caps on them.

[crazykenny1991]

Hey Poephoofd,

Ik ken jou volgens mij van Tweakers,je was geinteresseerd in mijn 2 HD4870's. Nou ik dit systeempje van je zie ben ik blij dat je het niet gedaan hebt, je was er echt dik op achteruit gegaan. Mooi systeem, netjes afgewerkt en lekker compact. Zo zie je ze niet vaak meer :)

[poephoofd1986]

@crazykenny1991 haha dat klopt! kep er nu toch tijdelijk een 4870 in zitten, even een goedkope oplossing voor nu. Komt straks wel weer een 5870 in of misschien iets leukers :)

[crazykenny1991]

@poephoofd1986 Heb de kaarten toch weten te verkopen en heb er nu een ASUS V2 HD5870 in zitten. Mondeknetter dat ding is snel :D Ben van plan er een 2de bij te zetten na de zomervakantie.

[poephoofd1986]

@crazykenny1991 netjes, gefeli... oh dat is die met die nieuwe koeler he? je hebt hiervoor natuurlijk niet met een stock 5870 kunnen spelen... ben erg benieuwd hoe die het doet t.o.v. die stockvan, die bijv. op mijn 5870 zat.. Nice, maar denk wel dat het overkill is... ik kon geen spel vinden wat ik niet kon spelen maxed out met 1 kaart... beter koop je een 2e monitor erbij ofzo :P

[LimburgerVinny]

@poephoofd1986

denk je dat een 5850 ook hard gaat?

heb niet zo'n groot budget, en wil van mijn mobo+ram+nvidia kaarten af omdat ik helemaal AMD>ATI wil ipv AMD>Nvidia

moet dus een nieuw mobo + nieuw ram + videokaart hebben, ik ga mijn 2 9800GTX+'en verkopen en dan wil ik een ATI Radeon HD 5xxx hebben, maar zit nog te twijfelen welke precies.....

thx alvast.

[poephoofd1986]

@LimburgerVinny Zeker, een 5850 doet niet veel onder tov de 5870... bovendien kun je hem ook overklokken, dat willen ze wel.. op welke resolutie game je?

[LimburgerVinny]

@poephoofd1986 1920x1080 60Hz, maximum van mijn Iiyama Prolite e2407HDS

ik erger me rot dat ik nu sommige games net niet maxed-out kan draaien, en ik wil DX11 hebben, maar bij Nvidia kost DX11 kaart meer dan 400euro, en dat geld heb ik niet ;p

een 5850 kost maar 250euro, en als ik die in Crossfire zet dan gaat 't wel hard :P

[poephoofd1986]

@LimburgerVinny ow makkie, gewoon die 5850 nemen, is zat joh :) kijken of je miss zo'n toxic kan nemen bijv. die heeft al een beetje overklok.

[LimburgerVinny]

@poephoofd1986 qua merk hou ik me bij MSI Asus of XFX.

mijn kaarten die ik nu heb zijn ook van XFX, die hebben altijd heel erg mooie designs op hun kaarten zitten, en met mijn tempest evo zit een dichte kaart er toch net iets mooier uit ;p

ga ook weer een MSI moederbord halen, en Corsair of Geil ram geheugen, daar ben ik nog niet zeker van, heb nu Geil DDR2-1066

[crazykenny1991]

@poephoofd1986 Kloksnelheden zijn hetzelfde als de reference kaarten. Ik heb nog wel wat spellen die één HD5870 niet aan kan. Probeer Metro 2033 maar eens te max'en of Crysis.

[poephoofd1986]

@crazykenny1991 klopt dat wist ik, maar die koeler vond ik wel interessant, die wijkt iets af...

HEb metro uitgespeeld, als je die 2 DX11 features uitzet draait ie retesoepel... ligt eerder aan het spel dan aan de kaart... met een patch of andere driver moet dat wel verholpen worden... ik had 1 van die opties uitgevinkt, speelde prima..

Crysis is gewoon bagger geprogrammeerd, dat draait alleen op CPU die op 8ghz loopt lol

[crazykenny1991]

@poephoofd1986 Hahahaha, klopt. Heb de DX11 Extra's ook uit staan bij Metro 2033. Ik denk niet dat Crysis zo CPU afhankelijk is. Agja, ben aan het wachten op mijn volgende upgrade. (AMD Thuban X6 1090T, 8GB Kingston DDR3 HyperX 1600mhz en een ASUS Crosshair IV moederbord erbij) Nu alleen de financiën regelen.

[Ghost46rider]

Ben nog steeds benieuwd van wie dit nr is

Klinkt best leuk

Dikke PC ook

[poephoofd1986]

@Ghost46rider Sorry man ik kan niet achterhalen welke ik heb aangeklikt uit die youtube lijst.. Thnx ;)

[genbowl]

Imagin this...

Antec mini p180 with custom wc, rampage ii gene, corsair dominator gt 2000mhz, intel core i7 980x, 2 5970s cf, blu Ray drive, corsair hx1000 and 2 wd vr 300gb in raid 0. Graphics, memory, chipset, and CPU watercooled in this beast.

Imagine how beast of a machine u would have.

[poephoofd1986]

Thanks guys :) It's still unchanged and going strong like in the video =)

[voskeeeuuuh]

stoere pc (y)

[pleite567]

whaha jouw naam echt geniaal!

[the123renzo]

nice

[AndWhatDoWeDo]

sweet nice case!!!

[coakisit]

I am thinking about buying this motherboard but will it overclock my processor by itself. I do not want to overclock, I want to buy a Core I7 975 Extream Edition @ 3.33 ghz.. I dont want to void my warrenty, please respond A.S.A.P.

[poephoofd1986]

yes this motherboard has auto overclock options :)

[madblast666]

very nice!

[Hekynn]

Man it sucks that Newegg or Amazon doesn't have this case anymore! I wanted this case for my build this fall and so I can use a Corsair H50 for it.

[poephoofd1986]

Second handed maybe? They're not worthed the full new price! Case is pretty old, from about 2006 if I'm right.

[matt007pl666]

lol hoe heb ik het meeste duimen omhoog door gewoon te zeggen verdomd gran??

[matt007pl666]

wtf is the songs name!!

[Jeddy360]

Must say love that Asus OC tool looks nice, and yea the cable management is nicer now, before I didnt like becuase it got in the way of the sexy parts.

[poephoofd1986]

Hehe yeah true, before it wasn't tight, now it is :) Thanks!

[Jeddy360]

If you done want your old 4890 its my birthday next week. Heheh

[poephoofd1986]

hehe already sold that one ages ago ;)

[oOMindfactoryOo]

he should have spent more money for a camera with makro option :D

[jumpingshadow1]

Hey Poephoofd

Hoe heb je de fans van jou Radiator staan?

Van buiten naar binnen

of

Van binnen naar buiten?

5/5 NICE RIG!

[poephoofd1986]

Van binnen naar buiten blazen :) Koelt prima, ook al met 1 fan... Corsair raad aan om het andersom te doen, vanwege de koude lucht... echter kan mij die paar graden weinig schelen, resultaten zijn nu al prima :)

[poephoofd1986]

@jumpingshadow1 van buiten naar binnen had ik ze daar geloof ik, ik heb beide geprobeerd en het maakte niet echt veel uit voor het resultaat.

[matt007pl666]

damn gran

[poephoofd1986]

XD weeeeeeeeeeeee

[poephoofd1986]

@matt007pl666 hey matt, lol

[matt007pl666]

@poephoofd1986 supp replying on a comment that is almost 1 year old heh

[RPGash]

I'm still trying to find out the name of this song.

[poephoofd1986]

sorry man i can't find it anywhere :(

[RPGash]

NP, i've asked some friends to listen to it and see if they know. Thanks for trying.

[geforce5591]

plz can u tell me wer u got ur parts cause i'm currently tryin to build something similar but with d silver case with blue led fans. I would really appreciate it if u could reply thanks. How come u don't have a drive?

[poephoofd1986]

well all of my parts are listed in the description, and i got them from random (web)shops in the netherlands...

i don't use a internal drive because i barely use DVD's and they take up a lot of space + extra cables... i have an external one now from asus :)

[keiki646]

Finally got my system build and now you can view it on my youtube page Intel i5 system

[poephoofd1986]

Just seen it, looks cool dude. Well done on the cable management!

[dannyloskipapi]

Clean clean clean!

[NecromortisQc]

insane

[puff0086]

WOW...this is the best pc that i ever seen on youtube....good job man ...100% kick ass pc...

[poephoofd1986]

thank you thank you ;-)

[DeNikow]

@puff0086 Lies, that's /watch?v=-Vpe8yJp7Vs&feature=r­ec-LGOUT-exp_fresh+div-1r-4-HM

[puff0086]

@DeNikow  ???????

[RPGash]

Love the case, looks great with all those red lights.

Music is cool too.

[poephoofd1986]

Thanks mate =)

[jumpingshadow1]

Hey Poephoofd

Passen er 2 HD5870 in????

[poephoofd1986]

Yep met gemak!

[keiki646]

wow that is sweet man

[gunnerfever]

this is one among the most beautiful gaming builds ive seen, kudos to poephoofd1986 for sharing this video of his amazing rig, someday id like to build the same pc when i have the money :D.

[poephoofd1986]

hehe thanks gunnerfever =) appreciate it!

[Trubyd44]

Hey, where did you get that Republic of Gamers Desktop Background. Please post link...thanks!  Great build!

[poephoofd1986]

Send me a private message and ill post it to you, I don't have the link anymore.. Thnx =)

[DeMurker]

Ey heb je die kast zelf gemaakt? Heb wel begrepen dat je delen zelf gemod hebt dus misschien moet mijn vraag zijn: welke kast was je uitgangspunt?

[poephoofd1986]

De kast staat gewoon in de omschrijving vermeld, overigens alle onderdelen van deze PC. Het is een NZXT Rogue. Verder niet echt gemod, alleen ROG sticker bovenop geplakt, alle fans vervangen en asus OC station ingebouwd. Mijn uitganspunt was om geen standaard antec of cooler master case te gebruiken, die heeft iedereen al ;) Verder was mijn idee om zwart met rode leds te combineren, in de kleuren van ATI zeg maar.

[poephoofd1986]

5870 now runs at a nice OC:

stock / oc

core: 850 / 1000mhz

mem: 1200 / 1250mhz

I reached above the 25k mark in 3dmark06 (25515 3DMarks) with this system while overclocked!.

[4tunewarez]

what is that song its nice

[poephoofd1986]

can't find what i used for it, but it's in the youtube audioswap list!

[policehamster]

omg it's a really nice case and special the cable management^^ ill think im gona build one my self omg:D GJ M8!:D (i have the same cpu cooler thumb up:P) and the fans is awesome to^^ looking forward to see the next step:P

[poephoofd1986]

thnx i've really tried hard to have the cables in sight as less possible... since there arent really spots where I can hide them in :-)

[lilenday]

OMG! So beautiful!!!! How much does it cost ? I am thinking to buy the same case with the ATI5970. Do you think it will fit? Because I see you 5870's pin ports is very close to the harddrive bay.

Once again, very very nice rig mate!

[poephoofd1986]

Yes the 5970 will fit, you just might have to bend the PCI-E power cables a little. But this case is long enough to fit large graphic cards :-)

[lilenday]

I decided to go for xfx 5850 like u :D Since the rareness of it raised the price to like 800$... I will have the comp soon and hope u r going to check it out. Please dont be mad if many components r like yours ;)

[poephoofd1986]

haha of course not, have fun with your system and send me a video where i can see it :-)

[mrjspeed]

Amazing. Nice to see a nice non camera-phone vid of a build that makes sense. After browsing and seeing a bunch of douche videos of "Lego'd" systems, this is refreshing.

I've used this case before, its excellent.

I noticed you have 4 intakes and 2 exhaust (H50 and 5870). Just curious, have you considered switching the H50 to intake and making the 2 right fans exhaust? Who know, it might lower the CPU temps and make the case's overall airflow/pressure more balanced.

Your rig is awesome. 5*'s

[poephoofd1986]

Thanks dude =) lol @ lego'd systems

Yea u've seen that right, I did it on purpose, after I had the 2 intake 2 outtake setup. With this setting, 4x intake, I got the best temps of all.. It's weird though.. Maybe I'm switching the H50 fan around like u said, could try that.. I'll let you know ;-)

[multimodder]

look at mine xDD

[KuSQ3N]

that temps do you have thit that h50 cpu cooler i have one but i neverd tried it then i got my ram :D

[vybzshakur]

yo if i wanted to buy a 4890 BE and then go buy the 5870 wud it be like having a 5970?

[poephoofd1986]

You cannot put those 2 in CFX if u mean. Has to be from the same series, 5xxx

[joeCODWatWKing]

cool pc also i just wanted to clarify that it is it possible to put a corsair h50 cooler on the asus rampage 2 gene. Since its a mATX MB i thought it wouldn't fit on it so does it or you need a high end air cooler.

[poephoofd1986]

oh yeah it fits perfectly, it's just socket 1366 supported so of course it would :) because the H50 is about the same price as the best high end air coolers, the H50 is a better choice...

[karkrashful]

4890 is awesome!!! i have the sapphire vapor x version. it overclocks like a beast. im playing a game and i minimize it and crank up the core clock from 850 to 1k and it doesnt crash!! it does get quite hot if u dont turn the fan up all the way when ur gaming and overclocking at the same time

[MyOwnWarGames]

Ultimate SFF Gaming! :D

[poephoofd1986]

Yes sir!

[Radeon8oR]

absolutely amazing

love it man... nice work

5/5 + favorite

[poephoofd1986]

thnx man :)

[luiscardenas3931]

Mann that pc is just overkill

and I was wondering ,what did you do with your 4890 ? :D

Cheeers

[poephoofd1986]

hehe it's not that powerfull, 3x 5870 would be overkill ^^

i sold my 4890 BE and bought my 5870 back for it :) sometimes i miss that card, 1ghz core clock ahhh awesome :P

[luiscardenas3931]

haha ,

I just orderd a XFX 4890 to replace my 9800 gt ,ive heard alot of good things about the card ":D

[Balogiannisslamer]

Beautiful mate. :D I have the Rogue too. It is the best case in the world. I want to make something like yours. Very good.

Are the Enermax Fans loud? The same question for NorthQ and the liquid system you have.

Do Ballistix work 1600 CL8 without problem?

This ATI logo you have there, is on the LCD? You can load any photo you like in the LCD? Can it play videos too?

Congratulaions again. It is super.

PS. ATI-NVIDIA : Give us longer Graphics cards...5870 and 295 are very short for our Rogue! :D

[poephoofd1986]

hi dude, thnx for your comment.

The enermax fans are pretty quiet, but they're controlled by the temperature sensor.. but you can also control them through a fan controller like i have..

northq fan is very very quiet.. the default corsair which comes with the H50 is pretty loud @ higher RPM, which is logical cause you want the best cooling :)

yeah u can use it as a photoslider, no videos though!

[lopi141]

man all i can say is it looks epic

[mrh112]

great job!, looks like one hell of a pc, maby later you can crossfire your 5870 to get better preformance in games

[poephoofd1986]

Thnx, I have room for a 2nd card, at the moment it's just overkill. 1 card performs good enough and the moment but in the future i'd prolly will :)

[falubii]

Great job man.

[hein345]

What are the temps of everything?

[poephoofd1986]

cpu = 38 degrees

mobo = 26

nb = 56

sb = 42

graphics card = 36

all idle temps..
