Hi,

I would recommend you drop the H100 for a cheaper version like the H60. I have an Intel 2600K and maintain an OC of 4.5 GHz with very stable temps around 75 when stress testing. Otherwise it usually stays maxed at around 65 while gaming or anything else.

Also you don't need 16GB RAM out of the box unless you are using some serious CAD and other simulation or video editing. I compile ROMs and play video games using 8 GB and overall I haven't had my total memory usage exceed about 6.5 GB. However, I can always stick more memory if I wanted since I have free slots on my board. Just a consideration to lower cost.

As mentioned before you can drop the OS. I'm pretty sure you can pick up Windows 8 for cheaper than that anyway. Or find a way around the money thing altogether :rolleyes:

Finally your graphics card is good but you have many options for that price. Either a newer card which will give you better performance or consider the switch to an AMD radeon card. They are always cheaper compared to the Nvidia equivalent and unless you have money to throw it doesn't necessitate spending the extra cash for a few benchmark points more. I am using two Radeon 6950 in XFire where even just the one card can be overclocked and performs better than the 660Ti. But with these things there is a preference point. Either way for that money I am sure you can manage a better and more rewarding card to handle video games and anything else.

Good luck with your build. It is very rewarding to build and use your own custom system :D

[Off-topic] Androidian10:
Actually, I got that build from one of LinusTechTip's first build guide so it's REALLY old with that 660 Ti haha.

Yeah I mainly play WoW but I do Video Editing as well in Adobe Premier Pro so an AMD card is a definite no for me cause I need the CUDA cores from Nvidia for video processing especially in Adobe. What would be better? 2 older cards in SLI or 1 single powerful card?

As for RAM, I think I would stick to my 16GB as I play Microsoft's Flight Simulator X in addition to video editing and WoW.

For the cooling, I think I might consider the H60, but I'm not sure about temps cause you're using an older processor compared to what I'm planning to get. I will look up reviews and benchmarks tho. Anyone here heard of Phase Change cooling? Came across it while doing some research.

Thanks guys. :)
[Off-topic] shorinryu:
I would suggest a single powerful card like a GTX 770 as opposed to two cards because that is generally the more stable option. Unless the older cards are top end previous generation ones like picking up 2x GTX 670s or something similar. I don't know much about Quadro and AMD FirePro cards except that they are expensive at the level you would want for video editing.

My point on RAM was only if you have those multiple instances running at the same time like compiling a video in the background while playing Flight Simulator.. But no harm in having more :)

As for the processor, unless you are using a 6-core or greater chip the newer intel Haswell and Ivy-Bridge are not as power hungry nor do they generate the same amount of heat as my Ssndy-Bridge CPU. Since you mentioned moderate overclocking I didn't suggest anything better as up to 4.5 gHz I have had no problems whatsoever. My limiting factor became safe voltage levels and not temperature. I haven't heard of Phase Change Cooling though :confused:
[Off-topic] replica9000:
I have my 2600K OCed to 4.5 with a CM Hyper 212 Evo. Temps usually stay below 75C. It's true that IvyBridge and Haswell consume less power than SandyBridge at stock clocks, but the tri-gate transistor design seems to produce a little more heat. Temps and voltage can get ugly pretty quickly if you really push Ivy or Haswell.
[Off-topic] Androidian10:
Ah good to know. Thanks.

Here's a video I found on youtube after doing a little search. Looks like a refrigerator on top of your processor. Intel Core i7 3770K @ 5.3 GHz with a temp of 40 degrees celcius. Mind=Blown.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlARlPbXLXg
[Off-topic] shorinryu:
Phase change looks very similar if not simply an adaptation of using liquid nitrogen to cool like in a LN2 system. In most cases very sensitive to set up or expensive but yes it manages ridiculously low operating temperatures. Only meticulous enthusiasts do it for the satisfaction of having a system run that much faster than anyone else's. The example video had a website link and their systems are around $1300. Better off getting a water cooled loop and setting that up for cheaper and gaining that extra edge over standard air or water cooled all in ones like the H100. Unless you have the money then go for it and I look forward to seeing some pics posted ;)
[Off-topic] Androidian10:
Haha I think I'll just stick to my H100 or H60. Thanks anyway dude! Now to get the parts, will post pics when I'm done in a few months time. (Need to get my paycheck and save up! Haha)

Just a correction, it seems to be like a refridgerant rather than liquid nitrogen as it has a compressor within the cooling unit.

Hey everyone, I'm currently using an old and clunky MacBook Pro. I'm looking to max it out to hopefully last another year or two. I've been wearing it down with Final Cut Pro, Eclipse, and general usage. Here's the specs :

MacBook Pro Mid 2012

2.9GHz Intel Core i7

8GB DDR3 RAM

Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB

750GB SATA Hard Drive (continuously transferring things to external hard drives b/c of lack of space)

When I bought it just before the retina model had come out, so this thing is definitely upgradeable. I know I want 16GB of ram, but I'm not sure what SSD or brand of RAM. Any recommendations?
[Off-topic] 404-Not Found:
I would suggest Corsair RAM but only certain brands make RAM for Macs. If you have the buck, you could get a 512GB SSD or 1 TB SSD, a Samsung EVO Series, they are crazy fast. I guess that would be it since that is all you can upgrade, I think. If you can, upgrade your WiFi PCI E Card, you can get one thats 5GHz and ac compatible. Also

I really don't want to resort to taking off the Cooler, so I assume I would have to take out the graphics card then find a way to give the cooler more support on the inside.

For apps like Final Cut Pro that take huge advantage of transfer rates, yes.

Mac takes a huge leap with SSD's. You could size down your OS and take out language packs and unused kexts. But what model of the MacBook do you have? You still may not be able to upgrade the ram in it, I believe since 2011(I could be wrong so don't quote me on this) the memory of these are directly on the logic board.

This is always been a great marketing ploy, this is not true. You just have to match your ram with the type the Mac takes. The Mac Pro takes Buffered ECC ram(Server ram). The rest of them just takes everyday non buffered 240/204 depending on your model ddr3 memory.
