Who Is Finally HAPPY with their System?

[emjay2d]

I was happy with it, before I mined with my graphics card for months straight, didnt take care of my GPU fans, and mined at 102 degreese for a good day. The damage has been done. Sigh! Now I'm back on the market! RIP HD 7850!

I'm about 80% there. If I had space for my spare 24" ultrasharp for portrait use I would go up to 90% and that final 10% would be another 290 but not worth it at the moment

I am rather happy, but I would be even more if:
-I could under-voltage my CPU (my board doesn't supports it)
-I could overclock the turbo multipliers (my board doesn't supports it)
-I would have a dedicated GPU in my system (without doesn't feels right, even if am I am not playing games anymore that would need more that my Intel HD2500)

Seeing this thread makes me want to finish my stripped build off.

So, as you can probably guess, wasn't happy with it but TBH, probably won't be until its had one or two more upgrades.

Im close to being happy - it's mainly aesthetics now. My motherboard is brown and I hate it. But I can't afford to spend 250 quid on a new processor and a motherboard with a black PCB!

Just got a mint condition H80i for 45 quid (guy couldn't fit it in his case).

Ooo brown PCBs, I dislike them

You know when food starts to go off? That's how I find it; every passing day 1% gets knocked off my "computer happiness" gauge

Yeah Sabertooth Motherboard and Noctua fans = case full of brown for me!

Problem is, I'll be spending 250 pounds on a new motherboard and CPU but it won't be an upgrade - I have an i5 3470 which performs well enough for what I want..

Anyone want to buy an i5 3470 and AS Rock H77 Pro4-M off me for 250 quid?

[Devastater6194]

NEVER!!!!! There is always more to do. Like a second rigs for LANs. Then maybe a HTPC. The possibilities are endless.

Had my machine from 3-4 years now. It's now to a point that i'm only upgrading now if a component breaks. It use to be i'd build a new machine every 12-18 months, but the rate of progress has diminished a lot now.

Couldn't be more happy, planning to be another system next week and I can tell you now i will enjoy to the max <3

[katinacooker]

I thought i was, but then i saw a case that i just had to have, and now i'm looking at other potential changes!

What's the reason behind this? D: Maybe just get a 3770k?

Nay, I would say a Haswell i5 plus midrange MoBo.

Because my motherboard is brown. Don't want to keep the same one, so if I get a new motherboard, would have to change the CPU as well.

[Bonebreaker777]

I would like to have all blue or all white PCBs (white as Sapphire MoBos or blue as some ASUS MoBos).
