New PC Build

First Build, i'm proud of it and it's pretty good for me at least. here's some specs:
GIGABYTE X48-DS4 MoBo
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
ZALMAN CNPS9700 110mm
PNY 4GB (4x1GB) RAM
Corsair Dominator RAM Cooler (not in vid, just got it =])
ASUS ATi HD4850
Segate 250GB 7200rpm HDD
MassCool HDD Cooler
NZXT Nemesis Elite edition Case
BFG Tech 650W PSU

for those of you who want to know, i have switched the side window fan and the case fan in the back because i felt that with the ZALMAN cooler i just need a pretty passive fan in the back since that one was a molex and you can't regulate rpms with it. So i put the 3-pin one in the window instead.

Hey nice setup.. Im thinking of building, msi p55, intel core i5 750 2.66 GHZ, 2x ddr3 2g,, 5770 vapor x....and for coolers and towers

a hyper 212 coolmaster, and tower: cm690 6 fan coolmaster.

What do u think of that setup? Will be pritty good?

@AJsfree2toke Definitely actually I was planning something like that sometime in the future. Except mine was a little more expensive with an 800D, EVGA P55.

Oh and I might hold of on that though to wait for nVidia's GTX400's and see what those are going to be like.

Other than that sounds good to me =]

[wildgeko123]

how much this cost you?

my freind is estimating £4000+ for me and he's a real computer genious

[darkgoth678]

@wildgeko123 at the time, this was about $1100, but now im sure you can get something even better for about $750-$800

@AJsfree2toke

i'd get the HAF 922 instead..  looks better.. IMO

@TheMegaOuch that sounds pretty good. Very similar to my new build, except i have 4GB DDR3 1333, a 500GB HDD, and a Phenom II X4 955. It works well in this case.

[afinewaytodie]

I just built a new system out of this case. Its a little small for my tastes, but it fits a 5770 fine, and thats more than enough for what I need it for. Front panel connectors are a bitch tho, lol. Its pretty friggin loud too. But, it performs well enough so far. I could be happier with cooling tho. My Phenom II X4 955 idles at around 25c-26c with a thermaltake V1, so we'll see what it does under load.

@turbotonic27 yeah im working on it now, give me a couple of mins

[darkgoth678]

@turbotonic27 I dont consider it very noicy but friends have told me that it is. I have a GTX260 in it now and it becomes pretty noicy if I turn the fan up to 100%

I personally do not have a problem with noise though.

[umbra234]

well i got 3 230mm fans
