Bought my new rig last week but only now i got time to post some pics. Enjoy!


The components:

intel c2d e8400
2 x 2gb kingston value ram
gigabyte ep35-ds3
gigabyte odin pro 800w
galaxy geforce 9800gtx (RM1100 only!)
seagate 320gb hdd
lg securedisc
gigabyte poseidon casing
samsung 943nwx
edifier m2300
chiplak keyboard and mouse (no money for a deathadder! )

total cost : 4500+





The rig:





Going to buy my deathadder and some powerful 12cm fans when i got the money next time.

hehe yea....casing, mobo and psu are from gigabyte. But heck, i dun really care coz these stuffs are good quality components.

I had the thought of going to gigabyte 9800gtx that day but it will set me back by another 150 bucks!

thanks! hahaha

but this mobo is a bit picky with rams la....I only managed to get the rig stable after relaxing some ram timings.

I would probably add team elite rams later on then only oc.

I am very aware that the 800w psu is an overkill.

I was looking for a 650w psu but i found that the price difference to the 800w odin pro is less than 100 bucks. After reading some reviews of the odin pro, i decided to just go for it coz an extra 100 bucks can get me another 150w hahah .

Its the gc too long. The 9800gtx is 10.5 inches in length lol!

The length is one thing i hate about nvidia gc. I really think they should start addressing this problem. 9800gtx will not fit all casing in the market.

I am left with <1cm gap after installing the 9800gtx in my poseidon...
