[QUOTE=ChristopherB;13787401]How does one know if water cooling blocks are available for a motherboard you want to buy? (never really thought about cooling them that way).[/QUOTE]
See if they're sold anywhere...?

It was really bugging me, so here's a better avatar for you:

It won't look green when you set it as an avatar.
[QUOTE=Callius;13787841]See if they're sold anywhere...?[/QUOTE]
I've never seen them for sale though. Are they general purpose or do you have to find one specific to the exact motherboard model you have?
Also, thanks for the avatar update...hope it didn't bother you that much. XD
Ha, you're welcome.

My computer is awesome to play with but, it diverts girls away from me.
My car is just as awesome to play with but, it improves my girl situation.
Or, fuck getting a car and go grab a motorcycle. Shitloads cheaper and that means more money to spend on a nice Italian sports jacket (to wear on your motorcycle) and a matching helmet.

Yeah I forgot that you blow 6000$ on a computer.
Xenos you're not contributing to the thread and your last message seems a little envious.
Either contribute/gawk/stare in awe or GTFO.
Honestly that computer looks fucking incredible. Congrats [img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/emot-keke.gif[/img].
Oh thank god you didn't bloody hyperlink that.

What is there to contribute? Look at other people's posts. The only reason why this thread was made was to show off.
I am not envious, I am pissed. I had no job when I got my 2k rig and it actually took me effort. This guy is getting a lot of attention simply because he has a shit ton of money. I have been down this road before with other friends having a shitload of money they get from their parents and they buy a computer. I don't like the fact that this guy isn't putting effort into his case he is just throwing money at it.
Other people post pictures of their awesome rig sometimes but, by making an ever changing worklog he is really gloating. I mean honestly, who the fuck takes this long to build a computer. He is only doing it to hype you guys up and showing off an E-Penis.
I'm sorry if this sounds like a flame but, I am just disturbed that this is a legitimate thread.

I was thinking about just ignoring this post all together, because it's inevitable you get posts like this, but why not, I'll respond.
The idea behind this was to create an interesting thread that documents every part of building a high end computer, why is there so many pictures? Because I like taking pictures. Why is it taking so long? Well the main reason for that is, I'm constantly selling things [b]I OWN[/b] to fund this. The truth is, you have no idea what my financial situation currently is, and that another large chunk of the money is from savings that I've been making over years. To say that I'm not putting any effort in shows how little you know, I spent weeks and weeks planning each individual part, let alone how much time I'm still spending try to make sure this is finished as well as it can be. This computer has to last me at least four years. So please, do what everyone else is saying and LEAVE. If you want to continue to moan, do it via PM.
If you're going to throw your dummy out everytime someone has something better than you, move to Cuba.

Ok, I know exactly 2 things from you.
1. You like to show off.
2. You are selling your own things to buy a computer overpriced that will most definitely not last you 4 years. How do I know this? Because my computer was top of the line in October and now it is not.
I should really get out of this thread because you just make me angry.

I don't expect my computer to be top of the line in a couple of months let alone 4 years, but it's going to have to last that long because I won't be able to afford to replace it when I go to university.
