i needed atleast 8GB of ram but since i will play many more games i thought it was better to be on the safe side and go with too much instead of to little.
this i5 is something i have heard alot of good words about so i whent with that.
The reason that i whent with a motherboard supportting aura sync when i have a case were you dont se much of the magic is because i will upgrade the case to another with sidepanel but i have not yet figured out wich ill go with, i have alot of specification for the perfect case.
The inside of the beast. Here i hade to change some stuff to fit the radiator. i hade to remove the drivebays and mounted the mechanical drive in the bottom of the case and the ssd i just lay between the USB 3.1 cable and the case for so long untill i have found my dream case. I also had to remove th front dustfilter to place my fans, you can read mor about it later in the pics.
My extremelly sexy RAM sticks.
The extremely overkill radiator but whatever XD the reason i went for this was that it came out on marketplace on facebook for a brutally low price.
I had to put the fans on the outside due to my long graphics card =(
Here is how much room i had to play with on the inside, so sadly the fans had to go on the outside and the dustfilter had to be removed.
And now to the Gaming setup. The table i use is a IKEA Fredde Table due to the abillity to have the pc off the floor and also for the shelves for the speakers and subwoofer wich i eventually will get but the economy need to alow it first. this desk is also great for cable management.
i also play alot of racing simulators such as Assetto Corsa, Dirt Rally 2.0, Live For Speed and RaceRoom. So here is the setup with a thrustmaster tmx pro wheel with a swapped out rim for better feel, an E-Brake from ebay since i do alot of drifting and e-brake turns on rally. And also a Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter wich is great because it support both sequential and H-Pattern shifting.
I have also mounted some hidden RGB- strips in the desk. I am currentlly using a big flatscreen tv because i'm on the hunt for two or three monitors for a cheap price and fairlly close to were i live. So untill then this tv have to serve as my monitor.
I found out that if you pull alot of the small cables behind instead of in the cable bands you are able to get them closer to the chassi and make more room for bigger cables like the 24-pin cable for the motherboard.
The length of the fan cables turned out perfect now.
Now the SSD got in a better place than before and it looks better to than having it laying lose in the chassi.
I really like how the cpu cable turned out when it got so straight instead of diagonal across the back of the case. And also when it goes behind the bracket for the SSDs.
I also did the cable for the GPU above instead of under wich really cleaned out the look in my oppinion.
Budget Beast
Here is my gaming pc i've built. The reason for this build is to have a powerfull pc but that no-one should know is as powerful as it is. this pc will be upgraded in the future too. It runs without any problem what so ever on games like GTA V and similar with graphics set to ultra with 60 fps. I do stream to without any problem but only then i need to lower the graphics to not drop below 60 fps.
