    84 replies, posted
In my down time I like to make builds on newegg, from the cheapest possible to the most expensive unlogical creation ever prospected on the planet. Now I ask of you facepunchers, post your most illogical, or just fucked build ideas. Here's one of mine.

Every now and then I make an all out awesome build on newegg I wish I had. :frown:
[QUOTE=Quack;21644713]Every now and then I make an all out awesome build on newegg I wish I had. :frown:[/QUOTE] That's why I do really stupid ones. Don't aim for a sub $1000 (unless you wanna see the cheapest you can build, which I've gotten to around $340 without an OS) always try and break $10k, make it fuckin ridiculous.
I can't it makes me depressed.
[QUOTE=Blarg190;21644863]I can't it makes me depressed.[/QUOTE] Stop being depressed, start being awesome.
I'm already awesome I makes me feel a lot less awesome if I do that. [editline]03:32AM[/editline] Also I don't have a car much less a 22 tho pc.

Your build would be somewhat practical if you didn't raid 3k SSds
[QUOTE=FHamster;21645821]Your build would be somewhat practical if you didn't raid 3k SSds[/QUOTE] Fuck practicality
I do this alllll the time. It is so fun :D I just feel jealous because I have no money to spend on computer parts.. :(
If you took away the many SSD's, I could've bought your build. But I didn't, I spent it on a kick-ass surround sound stereo instead. :smug:

Few years ago I threw together a system with 3 8800 Ultras, a core 2 extreme, massive RAID array, and 4 GB RAM, it ended up totaling around $20,000. it made me sad

[QUOTE=Odellus;21681642]Only 4GB?[/QUOTE] You generally don't need more.

[QUOTE=Odellus;21681642]Only 4GB?[/QUOTE] it was a big raid array. and this was like 2007 4 GB was holy shit [editline]03:49AM[/editline] [QUOTE=anikilol;21684588]Wouldn't that only cost $1800 now?[/QUOTE] The core 2 extreme is still stupid expensive, probably a little more.
If anyone here has heard of or seen/read the PCPowerplay Magazines, they have a section where they have different computer systems going from cheap to [B]expensive[/B]. cheapest goes for just under 1000 dollars and the most expensive can range up to 30 thousand dollars.
Would anything fit in that case? Micro ATX is bigger than a mini ITX no?
[QUOTE=blackdenton;21728918]Would anything fit in that case? Micro ATX is bigger than a mini ITX no?[/QUOTE] I had a 8600GT in a Micro ATX mid tower for the longest time, but it's in a rackmount case now. It fit pretty comfortably, but then again the 8600GT is a relatively small card (compared to the current monsters like the 5970 or GTX480).
get a Q8400 with 3-way GTX 480 SLI or i7 980X with GeForce 9400 GT

We're pretty much brothers!! The OP has a micro ATX board in his build with a mini ITX case I'm asking if the motherboard would even fit in that case.
The motherboard might fit, but not comfortably.
I fucking hate your avatar.
I'm getting tired of it too, I'm going to change it back to the cat
