Building a new rig

**deathgodusmc** · 10-16-15, 09:55 PM

I went with the msi geforce gtx970. Its not a 6 or 700 dollar card but it seems to be a pretty good card. Of which i just finished installing it as well as a few more fans. I have a 4 more spots a can put fans i think i went ahead and ordered those as well as an amd fx8350. I noticed my cpu fan didnt start turning until i flicked it so what the hell might as well replace the whole package.

the 970 should run anything you throw at it on high settings.

Well finally done and should handle the new game with ease. FX 8350 processor, 970 card, and 6 new fans cooling the box 2 push and 4 pulls. All i need to do now is go buy some new zip ties because it looks like a fucking mess around here now.

My motherboard has been amd for the last 4 years. I got cheap and did not upgrade the board.

Well that's a valid reason I suppose. Just painful to see someone get an AMD chip in the one time in their history where it's the least beneficial to do so.

Yeah well the board i was going to buy was 500 bucks. I decided to check my system versus whats required and my old chip was a bit above the minimum. So i said fuck it and left the old board and spent 170 on the chip. Now i exceed the recommended and saved like 900 bucks on the board and intel chip. My board at this point is maxed out so theres no more upgrading.
