Nice PC Dear.
But there is a SSD missing.
Your PC's performence is being killed by your traditional Hard Disk
You Must use SSD for boot drive, you will feel the difference after adding SSD in this rig.
A liquid Cooling is also necessory for K series of processors if you want to overclock them. You should use a third party CPU cooler like H80i of H100.
You are using 32bit operating system which supports only 4 GB of RAM maximum. you should be using 64 bit windows which supports more RAM then 32 Bit. like Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit supports 16 Gigs or Maximum RAM

Agreed. Large bottleneck in your system with that standard HDD. Luckily the prices of SSD's is decreasing.

You may aswell have just 4GB RAM installed since you're using 32-bit Windows, as LashPash mentioned. Sweet setup nonetheless though, good job

It is a nice Job,very cleanly put together.I would agree with Tom And Mr.L that until you get a SSD & 64 bit OS you are not going to see the full power and potential.Its kind of a waste to have all that RAM and only get 4GB out of it.You can still use the HDD just use the SSD for the OS and the other for programs and files,ect.Mr.L also makes a good point about liquid cooling.When I built mine I skimped and just got a 3rd party cpu fan to replace the stock Intel one and only until after overclocking did I realize that I should have spent the extra cash and liquid cooled it.With an SSD,64 bit OS and overclocked that thing will be more than a beast

IC does have a SSD but not on that rig at the moment.

She spent quite some time building that. Give her some time, as I am sure she is fully aware that she will require a 64bit OS to take advantage of the 16GB RAM.



According to CPU temperature, it should be fine as it is, although I know IC has not overclocked the CPU and is using FANS as the main ventilation which is doable.

One will need a liquid cooling system for an overclocked 2nd and 3rd gen i7's K series. Stock is fine as long as there is enough ventilation.



I have said already to her before but ill say it here: Me loves that GPU!

 

[McLovin]

That is one powerful machine. Do you play any sort of high intense games on it?

 

[ZeroDay]

Why only a 32 bit OS?

 

[illumination]

Wow, nice Rig! I agree with updating the hard drive as well as the OS, but other then, i think im drooling!

 

[InternetChicken]

hi all thanks for your nice comments and suggestions
I have a SSD and 64 bit OS but the SSD was causing errors and was faulty
so I am waiting for a replacement to be shipped

and for A liquid Cooling I have a professional do that for me lol
once I get my SSD lol
as for high intense games well farcry 3 and metro is what I am currently playing

Well for Farcry 3 I think MrXidus is currently playing if I'm right. Seems to be hooked on it.

and WIn8 x64 has a very good resource usage.

btw, it will be not InternetChicken anymore but InternetVelociraptor
