Hi guys
Been lurking around the forum for a while now, just got my account verified so I can begin posting my worklog
My current PC is about 4 years old now, and is looking old, and tired. I thought it was time for a new one, so I've been saving up for ages and I'm throwing money at a PC I can be proud of.
A couple of mission statements I had before I started are:-
1. It needs to be quick - My aim for the project is to get the cheapest Core i7 faster than the extreme edition, so I'm aiming for around 4 gig.
This presents problems, the thing's gonna boil if I'm not careful, so I've opted for a big watercooling loop.
2. It needs to be quiet! - I really don't know whether or not my 2 mission statements will go together hand in hand, but we'll see :P I dont want a PC blaring away in the background while I'm trying to watch a movie on it, so this was a major one.
3. It needs to look awesome! - I really want a PC i can showcase and show off. Certain users on XS have definately inspired me with some of the PC's they have made, which quite frankly, are damn cool.
So far, I've gone for the (what seems extremely popular) Silverstone Temjin TJ07 in black to do this project. I have a rough idea of what components I'm buying for the build now, but I'm taking my time to get it right.
So.. Picture updates coming soon, when I can figure out how to post pictures...
For all you budding photographers out there, prepare to be dissappointed! My photo-ing skill level is around 0, so apologies in advance for the crappy pictures coming up!
