Hey guys, I have already assembled myself a Core 2 Duo rig and it has been ready since last August. But too bad due to my busy working schedule and too much enjoying my rig, I can't manage to post it earlier. Now, I finally manage to post my pics here plus benchies.

I don't favour to OC my stuff now as I can already play all my existing games at a very playable frame rate (60 plus FPS anyone?). So here goes my specs:

Processor: Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4 GHZ + Stock Cooler
Monitor: CMV 743A (17 inch, 8ms, black)
Casing: Cooler Master Centurion 5 (Black)
Optical Drive: LG DVD Burner 16X
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3
RAM: Patriot 2 X 1GB DDR2 667 MHZ Dual Channel Kits
Graphics Card: MSI 7900GT 256MB fitted with Thermalright KV1 Ultra (450/1320)
Hard Disk: Seagate 320GB SATA II 16MB Buffer
PSU: Enermax FMA 535W
Sound Card: Creative X-Fi Extrememusic
Speakers: Logitech Z-5300 5.1
Keyboard: Logitech Multimedia Keyboard
Mouse: Logitech G-5 Laser Mouse





My Beloved Beast Before Unleashing

Here are the benchmarks I manage to crank out. Too bad I don't have some of the software to duke it out since time is not something I have a lot... But anyway, here goes:

I wanted to test more games like ES4: Oblivion, Quake 4, etc....but I do not really have much time! I think the benchmarks (not really a benchmark cuz no comparison, but well...) are quite sufficient to show how this rig performs. Any comments are welcomed! I'm so happy with my current rig now!

Real quality stuff you got there . Pity you don't want to OC.

I cant find ur 3dmark there.. Only see cpu mark? Aiksss...

Checked my 3DMark program already, don't know why the software does not allow me to run benchmark for HDR/SM3.0 tests. That's why I can't obtain the full score.

nice score. i think ur cpu score can go higher. havent oc-ed anything yet?

Yup it can go way higher, but it's just that i find my gaming needs are fulfilled, and productivity programs run smooth. Maybe I will OC when Crysis comes...

That's because our computer is protesting. It wants to sprint but you put a leash around it's neck.

Aikss??? Ur 3dmark06 prog isnt the full version ka??

what's ur average power consumption? if u can check la. can show the sandrasoft hexagon or something? the full system benchmark thingy

ur pc is superb !!! great performance !!! how much u brought it ? i'm very interested for the RAM ! 1GB 667 mhz ! and SATA 2 HDD

can u list out ur price ?? thanks !!

dude if want to buy his stuff go to his selling thread or pm him la......

The 7900GT really drools me, with such a powerful rig, should get a better monitor though

haiz.really make me cemburu got a beast rig...

No problem. Updated already. Check the top post.

my rig is the junior version of yours!!!

RAM temporarily out of stock la, but you may deposit first though, PM me if you wanna know more. I don't sell HDD.

Depends your needs. I game usually for FPS and strategy games, don't need a big-azz monitor.

Rather invest for a HDTV big size ones, but my room too small to put them..until I get a house myself la ya haha..

no idea la, stated there as 'Professional' Version, but cannot get professional results...any pro can help?

oh my, such a good way to relate things, hehe.

You can be the senior with yout E6300, it is an OC beast! Check some sites on how to unleash your taming beast.
