32 nm Intel Sandy Bridge Gaming PC - i5 2500K & Radeon 6870

[SigurdDaMan]

I think I'm gonna use this build when I'm gonna build a PC.

[feeblemind]

da fuck howd you build this for so cheap?

[Grubbyashes]

clay is soft.

[MarkAthrone]

You didn't buy a SSD for chaching using the ISRT lol. A 40gb of ssd is enough to do that lol

[MaleBosszz]

I got it for exactly €700 even better.

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@MaleBosszz 700E is more than what I paid and this is from 6 months ago, I don't have this PC anymore, now I have an i7 Sandy Bridge with Gigabyte Z68 motherboard and 16GB RAM

[MaleBosszz]

@JundaComputersGmbH That is awesome but isn't very high ram bad I mean crashed and stuff 6 gb or 8 is enough for me I don't see why you need 16?

[Ibankik]

@MaleBosszz Lol 700 euros is about $920 Cad dumbo

You can build this similar rig in uk for about £570 Which is about $890 (cad)

[wardy92]

why dont u do crossfire x8 is still good, the difference in between x16 and x8 are miniscule 3-4fps at most. Look at the performance graphs

[7zerozerozero]

Don't worry about the second PCIe, there is a minimal performance difference between 8x and 16x, its only at 4x that you start to see a significant decrease in performance. Also get rid of that old intel first generation sticker and put on the SB one! lol

[8bitRD]

best build ever, i have it and love it :D

[drevilownsu]

Is the case any good?

[K1ngggg]

Canada seems to be expensive country

[alexbeast14]

I can just about promise it doesn't beat all the Aurora and Area-51 PC's considering they're customizable. But it is alot cheaper to build your own.

[andrewgrp36OveR]

Nice pc, that reminds me i have to upgrade mine but i ll wait till new amd-intel(s) processors come out and see what they can handle.

BTW, once u have the money ur next upgrade should be SSDs not processor. Trust me it will worth it.

[Georgefromboarding]

Is the radeon 6870 a perfect match for the 2500k in terms of gaming? Obviously, there is not bottleneck although i feel the 2500k has a lot of graphical potential even when not overclocked.

[MyTubeClone]

successor of nehalem



[DooTheDu]

I just built the same rig for $750 with 8 gb ram

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@DooTheDu Yea try to get this for $750 in Canada after tax, douche

[tomuch26]

@JundaComputersGmbH

he's not a douche

i got mine for 700$ with taxes, shopped at ncix.

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@tomuch26 Yea try to get this for $700 after tax from fucking March 2011, douchebag

[MrChoppersuey]

@JundaComputersGmbH

Actually there's no performance loss with the second pci slot with 8x intead of 16x. That's at least what linustechtips said

[wardy92]

@MrChoppersuey there's also benchmark graphs on forums to back it up. I think it was tomshardware where its posted, im going to be doing gtx 570 sli for sure now lol

[MrChoppersuey]

@johnboy73525

Nope he will be fine with that psu,actually he could use a cougar a450

Graphicscard max. power consumption: about 150w

Cpu max. power consumption: 100w

Not even 300w at max. load

After watching a fairly big number of rigs on youtube, I noticed one thing: americans love lights and other blinking stuff and OVERSIZED powersupplies-true story bro

[nickm34456]

i got pretty much the same rig for $800 by getting the parts from newegg, you got jipped man

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@nickm34456 I bought it off Newegg too, but the Canadian site. Newegg CA has super price inflation compared to Newegg com if you don't believe me watch my video

watch?v=PeuiSsVYh0s

And Canada has 13% tax, so I paid about $950 before tax

[nickm34456]

@JundaComputersGmbH nah i believe you I wasnt trying to insist you were lying but, idk thats just kinda stupid you guys have to pay more

[Greek7Dude]

@JundaComputersGmbH you said 13% like you meant that it is a lot. here in greece tax is 23%

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@Greek7Dude And the USA has like 0% in most states, which really makes me pissed off at those ignorant Americans sometimes

[Greek7Dude]

@JundaComputersGmbH americans can be dicks sometimes

[TeslaRifle]

@JundaComputersGmbH Instead of being pissed at us, you should be pissed at the politicians taxing the shit out of you =). Nice rig.

[hulilutteri]

Will the HIS 6870 fit in the case?(Coolermaster 310)

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@hulilutteri All 6870s should have the same length so I guess it would, my reference Diamond 6870 still has about 3 cm of space left from the hard drive bay so I think it should fit just fine

[jerpsi]

Hey! Im about to update my pc, which ended up buying pretty much everything. Actually, yes.. everything. Just wanted to ask you that would you add or replace anything in a setup being this:

Case: Cooler Master 690 II

Memory: G.Skill RipJaws-X DIMM kit 4GB CL9 ddr3 @ 1600mhz

GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6870

CPU: Core i5 2500K

Motherboard: MSI P67A-GD53

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14

Power Supply: Super-Flower Amazon 80Plus 550W

Im thinking about overlocking the cpu to about 3.9GHz in turbo.

[johnboy73525]

@jerpsi I think u need a bigger power supply

[Bobzwik]

This is a build im possibly going to do! (at least the radeon 6870). but i dont know if i should go with i7 2600k, or i5 2500k. As well as gaming, i make montage and other videos. any help? what would fit more my needs? thx.

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@Bobzwik If u got the money get the 2600K but for $100 less the 2500k is just as good, only difference is 0.1GHz slower, 2MB less L3 cache, and no hyperthreading but its worth the $100 less cost.

[kthxbai999]

about how much did this whole project cost you?

[FSFLIGHTproductions]

X16 X16 compared to X8 X8 makes no difference what so ever even with 2 480's.

[Aaronage1]

Very nice build, very clean!

The video quality is great on your videos, what camera do you use? :)

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@Aaronage1 Oh hey, you can see my camera at 0:17, its a 12.1 Megapixel SONY Cybershot DSC-T900 filmed in 720p, and you're from England? I love England and Top Gear

[MrSinanabi]

@Knartwick

woher hast du den denn ^^ ??

[ReisDesigns]

Dont be afrait to instal a oder hd 6870 bc 8x and 16x prety much same shit go check it out watch?v=NFMzRZqFh-w

[CA000000000]

@ReisDesigns Yep agreed. Litlle difference between 8x and 16x

[MrSinanabi]

hello my friend i have one question i should buy a ATI 5850 or Nvidia 460 gtx??

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@MrSinanabi Both are abit outdated, get ATI 6870 or 6850

[MrSinanabi]

@JundaComputersGmbH dont have enough money for 6870 oder 6850 but the 5850 is good to or ?

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@MrSinanabi 6850 cost same as 5850 in Canada but maybe prices are different for you but 5850 is about same performance as 6870 so its still a fast card

[MrSinanabi]

@JundaComputersGmbH here in germany the 6850/70 cost more then 180 euros and the 5850 xtreme 120euro.  so if i buy the 5850 its not a fail ?

[JundaComputersGmbH]

@MrSinanabi 6870 and 5850 both have same 40 nm 256 bit GDDR5 with DirectX 11 so the 5800 series still has the latest features, its not like 5800 vs 4800, where the 5800 is completely new, the 6800 is slightly better than the 5800

[MrSinanabi]

@JundaComputersGmbH okay thanks :D but the xtreme verison of 5850 is better then the normal ?

[marland66]

Nice build bro!

[TheArea510]

16x and 8x almost same score. dont worry about it. nice Mobo I like how it look but im a AMD guy ;[

[Mupp1t]

Nice computer great build I got the new Asus 6870 DirectCU. Very quiet at 50%.
