    Upgraded to Water Cooling and other Components

    Woohooo..Got myself Corsair H70 water cooling,
    Palit GTX 460 2gb DDR5 graphic card and Asus D2X Sound Card.

    With Cold,Shorter days and longer nights upon us I decided not to call Fast Lads and spend money on repair bill for my Velocity 50n but instead to upgrade my PC,(will fix my Velocity next spring as I have a Trex600n,if Iever get the urge to fly in the cold).

    Next upgrade will be AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition,Asus Crosshair iv motherboard and some fast DDR3 rams..:sifone:

    Wondering what rigs are you guys/gals on

        That being said here is mine. Almost same spec as yours but with a 60gb SSD a liquid cooled northbridge, mosfets and water block on the 480.

              Haha, True, Don't need a 980x ;) Just get one below and clock it, Like a 940 or 965

                    I was being ironic.

                    The SSD was giving to me by one of my suppliers. It dual boots Ubuntu and W7u, but if I'm honest Its not really worth it in a PC. Eventually I will get round to putting it in my laptop as the power consumption is a lot lower. But this will mean reloading everything and I would rather be flying at the moment hence it's still in the PC.

                      Is it just me or are there a few threads appearing now and then that have nothing to do with RCHeli's that should be in the 'off topic' section?? Fair enough this is to do with PC's for sims etc but really?? I would'nt start a thread about the type of sofa I sit on whilst using my sim..

                      'New Call of Duty' for example.. wtf??

                      knock knock...

                        Yes it is when you discuss it in the 'Main Discussions' forum! I thought that discussing geeky PC specs was what 'Off Topic' was for!:)

                          Good point I must admit I didn't notice where is was. As I always use the new post button.

                            Oh boy that are some sad miserable B*$*rds here,do not post to this thread if you're not interested!
                            Fact being that you're reading this must mean you're on some sort of PC and you probably have some kind of of Flight sim,where do you plug that into up your @R$e ??
                            Also good to know if you have some problem with your PC there are some here that can assist.

                            I have seen many off topic here and have not responded in such negative way as some here.Its nice to read what else is going on outside the Rc Heli world,yes there are Pc forums but I just made a small thread and not taking up the whole heli forum.
                            You can still talk about geeky heli stuff
                            Clearly there are some here belive they must have absolute control on this forum.

                            Peace...:gnorsi:
