Wow. Evie is a beauty. This has to be one of the the best builds I've seen in the last decade. The level of craftsmanship and your attention to detail is top notch. Rather nice photos as well. Two thumbs up from me.....
Subbed. I like 2nd hand builds.....Mines been totally refurbed using 2nd hand parts.
I always feel that you have to be a bit brave to do a full water cooling loop, I bottled it and went AIO.
The annoying thing is, I sold my Vapor-X 7950 a few weeks ago when I bought an 8gb RX480 Nitro from the shop here. I figure I need about £70ish for a SSD and 8gb ram, so £90 to spend on a gpu and both the 7950 and 7970 I've seen are only about £60. It's not my money so this is proving to be...
So, a friend has seen my recent '2nd hand parts' build and has instantly gotten the upgrade bug and has given me £300 to build him a better PC than he's currently using (Phenom II 1055T/Asus M4A Evo Something Something Mobo/4gb OCZ 667 Ram/R7 200 Series GPU/Generic PSU/Big White NZXT Case). Now...
Hope so too. Finding it a bit strange that Corsair's Parts & Accessories Catalogue is quite extensive for all types of 'odds & sods', but nothing remotely at all resembling the weights and the the screw cap covers. Would be nice to find something though.
I've recently bought a Corsair M45 mouse (really cheap by the way) which is in excellent condition albeit without the weights and one of the screw-in covers so this is just a general enquiry regarding whether or not it's possible to buy said weights and covers. Have looked on the Corsair website...
In my opinion, the 8gb 480 is a keeper. Especially as you're getting an 'old for new' RMA replacement. I just upgraded from a Vapor-X 7950 to an 8gb 480 Nitro+ OC and it is the 2nd best (performance) upgrade I've everdone (1st being E8600 to i5 2400S). It's got a lot of grunt for a mid range...
I bought the 8gb Nitro+ OC, purely because 8 is more than 4 and i knew that if I ended up buying the 4gb version, I'd end up regretting it. And a B grade came up at a good price at the right time.
