SCREAMING FAST Water-cooled "Storm-Trooper GAMING rig" - my latest build.

[meade916]

I build computers all the time but its been a minute since i have built a gaming rig. Here is what i got for it.

Corsair Graphite Series 600T Special Edition Mid tower (it looked like a storm-trooper and had a side window....so i bought it )

Raidmax 1000 Watt Power supply

ASUS Sabertooth P67 Mainboard

Intel Core i7 2600k 3.4ghz

Vantage Watercooling (with digital readout)

16gb ddr 3 Patriot Memory

Samsung 256 gig SSD-Drive (boot drive)

Seagate 2 TB Hard Drive (storage)

Windows 7 Pro 64bit

ASUS DVD Player / Writer

D-Link Wireless N wifi (mini PCI Port)

Logitech Wireless Keyboard/Mouse

(2) ASUS GeForce GTX 580 Direct CU II (in SLI mode)

Here are some pics. I stole a few of the card itself off of the net (above) because i didn't have time to take close ups.

Wicked man...I have never seen a water cooled computer.

i havent had a chance to benchmark it, i finished it like 10pm last night......

i will be messing with this thing all weekend for sure haha.

that SSD drive boots windows in like 10 seconds....i cant wait to put 16gigs of ram to the test also. I have had some dope-ass gaming machines in my time (for their time period) but I have never had anything that could read over 4 gigs.

i also cant wait to EDIT video's with it. I hope the ram speeds up the rendering process.....i dont see why it wouldnt

actually im going to steal the one from my other "gaming rig" since i like it better and swap this one over to that one. I actually have always liked Logitech wireless keyboard/mouse combo's so this one isnt bad for $8O

Now you're speaking my native language Steve! Very nice choice of hardware going in there...what's your impression of the Patriot DDR3? I recently did a build somewhat similar to this, but used 16gb of GSkill DDR3 and was very impressed with how far it let me push it. Where you get that H2O cooling kit? Anyways, lets get some benchmark #s! Good job!
