Show me your PC!

Name says it all. I will start. This is a thread I made on another sight. I'm being lazy and just going to copy/past it.

Hey every one. Just picked up two EVGA 680's at work this morning. Got them in and started playing with things. I will post benchamarks later.

Rig:
Intel i7 2600K
8GB Corsair Vengeance 1866
ASUS Maximus Extreme
OCZ Vertex 2 60gb
Seagate 500GB x 2 RAID 0
H100
SLI EVGA 680

So far runs great on what I have tested on. I've been using the 4.8Ghz clocks on CPU so far. I plan to load my 5.1 Ghz profile after I get the cards tweaked to see what I can max out at.

More to come. I have to be back to work in a couple hours. So, most updates will be later tonight or tomorrow.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Added on 4/9/2012

Here are the first couple benchmarks. CPU at 4.8Ghz and cards at stock clocks. Well, stock auto OC/GPU Boost settings.

I have not tested iRacing, but since my 570's did anywhere from 150-300 fps on a single screen, I'm sure these will be fine. lol

3DMark 11
p15120

http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3132226

3DMark Vantage
p43044

http://3dmark.com/3dmv/4007028

Here are the benchmarks with an OC on the cards. Going to keep playing and tweaking, but it seems it's pretty limited as to what you can do with it.

props for clean wire management.

pretty sure this thread topic has been done a couple times. Search, you may find what others have discussed with their rigs.

I can OC to 5.1 pretty safe with it.

I change out parts way to often to go full water. I don't want to buy and sell blocks all the time. They are a pain to sell.

i hear you on that. My only gripe with those AIO systems is that if the pump goes, the whole thing needs to be changed. But looks like they come with a significant warranty.

Plus, working for Microcenter makes things a little easier if all goes bad. lol

This is my little shuttle-x. Its tiny. like the size of a lunch box. Its so old and slow its almost embarrassing. I cant part with it though cuz I've had it forever. Now I just use it for looking at ****.

This one my friend made if for me a few years back. It was a gift for my wife. I am borderline retarded when it comes to computers. So I cant tell you much about it. something about a pentium quad core tarabite thing. Supposedly was pretty good stuff at the time when it was made. All I know is that you can see through the side and it has a bunch of girly color lights in it. At the beginning if this last semester she bought herself a laptop so I inherited it.

Nice little shuttle. Might make a nice little file server with a hard drive swap, if it has SATA.

Here is a pic I forgot to post. I always get a kick out of it. This is the side of my case.
