Post your rig

Romanvian wroteSo if someone wants to buy parts that aren't much recognized in Lebanon such as here

Where would be an equivalent (to some extent) store in Beirut where you could find different parts with good prices.

elserge82 wroteJust curious about my CPU benchmarking
I've reached 14031 with a stable OC for R5 1600 would you consider it good or should I look for more?

CPU Water Cooler : Cooler master B120
Case fans : 6X cougar turbine 120 mm (connected to the case controller on lower RPMs)
Case : Cougar Evolution.
Ram: T win 2 X 16 GB 3000 mhz
GPU: MSI 1060 atx 6gb OC

karimo wroteany idea when the gen8 intel cpus will be available in lebanon? only thing keeping me from building the pc is the cpu.

also, which pc parts store have the cheapest prices in general? already know about pcandparts/macrotronics/microcity

CPU: Core i7 4460

anayman_k7 wroteYou can test with the RAM on stock, I noticed that my LPX 3000Mhz OC to 2933mhz won't work when I try my CPU at 3.7Ghz, I did OC them when it was at 3.6Ghz (my board is MSI SLI Plus), so if you like to OC the CPU more try to set back the RAM to stock, but personally I think as is - is the best choice, you benefit from both CPU and RAM OC without pushing your system to the edge

I'm lost,I've reached the CPU, Ram or board limit? the system crashes on 68 C ram temp.And by disabling XMP and running default ram speed I only reaches 3.95 (the performance is lower than the 3.9).

They are now available in Dubai.

8700K costs 510$

If you're interested in getting one I'm coming to Lebanon in end of November.

CPU: Core i5 4460

GPU: MSI gtx 970 OC (reference blower design) - was on sale, go for the open air coolers, never again buying a jet engine

Motherboard: MSI z97 guard-pro

PSU: Thermaltake smart-se 730

Water cooling: Thermaltake pacific-360 kit

RAM: 8GB 1860Mhz hyperX fury

Keyboard: HyperX alloy fps (blue switches, only comes in blue I think)

Case: Thermaltake view 31 - I can't stress enough how much I love this case. It's a mid tower but really fits everything. I have a 360mm radiator on top and can fit another 360 and another 220. The whole drive bay is removable, and you can mount up to 4 drives on the back, without screws. And the tempered glass is awesome, the pics above are with the panels on.

Hard drives: WD 1TB hdd 7200RPM, and a 480GB HyperX Savage (messed up with that one, should've went with something with better queue depth performance)

Mouse: bloody v7

funny we now include mice and keyboards, but hey they really add up to the experience, especially the clicky keyboard... I love it !

You might be asking why I'm watercooling a locked i5, well I just hate fan noise. I even had an AIO hooked up to my gpu, but coudln't include the block in the custom loop, and kinda ruined the AIO. I'm getting a gpu waterblock soon.

Also nothing is really worth upgrading atm, the market is in chaos with AMD ryzen,intel re-branding crap just to add numbers up (wait for 9th gen at least) and Nvidia not willing to lower the price on anything... plus my 970 is doing great still so ..

Yes it is a bit confusing, I prefer to move the discussion to the Overclock thread
https://lebgeeks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=12878

Personally when I tested the same CPU frequency with a slight RAM OC the result in Cinebench were lower! but without RAM OC and with CPU OC the result were always higher but be aware that I didnt reach an extreme point.

I suggest you stay on 3.9Ghz, try to do a long stability test to find the best voltage for it and then try to OC the RAM

mr m wroteThis page encouraged me to build my own PC but the problem is that I donot know how to build computers .
If I buy all the parts separately do you know a place that can assemble the pc for me ?
