FEATURED What did you get today?

[wingman99]

It looks like a detuned FTW GTX 1080 with a base clock speed of 1607MHz boost clock of 1733MHz.

 

[Lochekey]

My impression on the DT line is that they are the ones that could not pass the final quality check for a FTW card. So you get a FTW custom PCB and cooler with a possibly subpar chip.

Its the high end cooler with no promised clocks, not a "failed" one.

A very poorly drawn one, yes.

Also from the egg I got this

I now have two of these and will pick up another two as and when they appear in sales going to tear them down and mount them in one of these.

I've done this before although this time around it's about half the cost, the 4TB drives last time were close to $200. I already have 16TB (8TB data, 8TB backup) in another tank which is getting close to full, blu ray rips will do that for you, and this will allow me to double my data storage.

And the final two 4TB externals arrived today, the egg had them on offer for $99.95

Backup should be finished sometime this decade

My new radiator plate and fans showed up.

Looking good
Did you choose the fans to be colourless or you had no option? They look cool
Didnt notice them in the first pic lol.

 

[Lochekey]

Actually I prefered the black ones as I'm not a fan of the red leds but I got them on sale for under 4 bucks a piece so I'm not complaining. They are Yate Loons D14SH-124R

 

[ATMINSIDE]

Just cut the LED wire

That is the backup plan. Will get it installed and see how much it bugs me after a few days. If it is still annoying me the wire clippers will be employed.

 

[GTXJackBauer]

I think it will be fine. Have them positioned on the backside of the big rad, possibly giving you some ambient room lighting against the wall and not on your face.

Btw, nice deal on those fans. Can't go wrong with Yate loons if ya aren't too picky.

 

[Lochekey]

So I got everything mounted up and it is not to bad looking. Please don't mind the mess I'm still working on building this benching table. By the way if anyone is after some cheap high speed fans these are still on sale.

[Lochekey]

That looks like it is gonna be a nice setup. What type of recording do you do.

I stream my Games that I play , here is a small list of some of the games

I had that razor mouse and after a week the battery would not hold a charge. It also felt very cheaply made and was very light compared to my steelseries sensi raw. The rest of the setup is pretty freaking sweet man, congrats!

I can vouch for those, I have both 120 and 140 YateLoon High Speeds and they're beasts, their sound is not high pitched either even at max/near max speed. That deal is especially fantastic considering that's what I paid for non-led ones :L, I have had one 140mm go out on me (not completely but it was making such a horrible sound it had to be bad) it ran for about 4 years fairly consistently and at max speed when it was on at all times. Other than that, rock solid.

They move a lot of air. They're like cheaper Scythe Slipstreams.

Nice, I have a similar system. Hopefully you can get above 4.6 Ghz with that 6700k with non-ridiculous voltages =P

 

[Soulcatcher668]

Looks like it will be a bunch of fun XrogerX. I am not a fan of Razer stuff myself but peripherals are largely personal preference once you pass a certain price-point.
