PraetoR Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) As above. Not sure there's enough of us here, but thought I'd give it a go! Here's mine. Name: HAZARD Processor: Intel 4690k @4.0GHz Motherboard: MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition RAM: 16GB Crucial Ballistix DDR3 Graphics: Zotac Nvidia GTX1070 PSU: Corsair VS650 Case: Kolink Punisher (UV-reactive wrapped all cables, replaced front fans with UV-reactive items, removed all LEDs, fitted UV LED strips- wanted it to look like it runs on toxic waste). I'm not massive on online gaming at home, alone. Every now and again, I have some friends and brother-in-law round, on a saturday night for LAN gaming and heavy drinking, until about 6am! Games include: CS:GO, Dawn of War- Soulstorm (tried DoW3... meh), World of Warships, Fractured Space, Portal 2, Starcraft 2, Dead Island, Depth, UT2004, Crossout and several others I've forgotten. Games I do play on my own include: The Half Life Series, Mass Effect 1-3, X-Com 2- WotC, Fallout 4... and the Legend of Zelda series, on Nintendo.

kenny_st Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) this is a old pic, nothing fancy and was built 3 years ago, last year I added another msi 980ti, and still a power house, msi z170a m5 2tb hdd 500gb ssd i7-6700k 16gb ballistix ddr4 rm750 x psu 2 msi 980ti gpu Edited February 25, 2018 by kenny_st 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetoR Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 980ti is still an awesome card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny_st Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 yep they really are great cards, that's why I haven't upgraded yet, mut I might upgrade the board at some point tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetoR Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 To be honest with you, I only run at 1080p, so cards like my 1070 and your 980ti are waaaay more than is required! I get over 100fps on everything, with the exception of WoWS, which has a 76fps limit... it hammers off that limit, like a motorbike engine with it's throttle stuck open! Even Fallout 4, with Bethesda's completely broken engine, with the ridiculously-poorly optimised high-textures pack, gets over 100fps. PC specs are simply insane, nowadays!

RegisteredUser Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Bought my first gaming PC just before Christmas. Nothing fancy. It's definitely good enough for me, for the price (£500). Intel Core i5-7400 3.0GHz Processor 8GB DDR4 2133MHz RAM 1TB 7200RPM HDD 4GB NVidia GeForce 1050Ti GPU Built in WiFi (It's fine for browsing but I use a TP-Link, for gaming) Corsair VS-350W PSU ASUS H110M-R Motherboard Comes with a HUGE tower, considering the size of the internals, haha! It's not the best but I think value for money, it's great. Perfect for me. Takes everything I throw at it!

PraetoR Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Yeah, looks like you've got an ATX case with a mini ATX motherboard, hense the disparity in size. Glad you're enjoying it. And welcome, to the PC Master Race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PraetoR Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 The PC I was using (up to this time last year), I built back in 2007!! Ten years old, and was still functioning properly! Although, the case fans didn't always spin. Spec was... Name: REVENGE Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 XFX nForce 750i SLI 2GB OCZ Reaper RAM BFG Nvidia 9800 Ultra+ OC (I miss BFG, they were the best) Tried SLI, but it wasn't that stable. Can't remember the PSU Cooler Master Centurian case. A dinosaur! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that, there really wasn't any need for my 2nd card but done it as it came up cheap on over clockers forum the cards never get pushed that much on mine. 16 hours ago, Praet0r87 said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. Plus it's a bit of a boast, saying you run SLI. On your last post, did something go all screwey? On my screen you have one and a half quote boxes. Is it just me?

kenny_st Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 mm not sure what happened there, yeh it is a bit but if I ever want to go 4k which I will soon I think the cards will cope well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavster29 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I first made a high spec server but have since decommissioned it and made it in to a desktop PC which is good enough to play any games I have (I don't have many). Firstly as I think it worth a mention, the server duties are now taken care of by a Raspberry Pi 2 running OpenMediaVault and it is surprisingly quick and really great at it's job it runs a 4tb USB 3.0 drive as main storage running in USB 2.0 mode as the Pi is only 2.0 capable which backs up nightly to 2x 2TB drives which are Sata but in a sata to USB caddy.

PraetoR Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 I wasn't too bad, as I sold a bunch of stuff. The only big hit was the £370 GPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
