Time for an upgrade?? Yes I know Falcon is spendy, but I don't enjoy building computers or dealing with issues. I'd rather just send it in for major problems or call tech support.
Anyways here is the setup, GFx card is not set in stone and yes they will OC the CPU. Thoughts?

Holy shit dude....
I must be missing something, but where is all of that cost going?
EDIT: Priced out, that's about $2000 in parts using Newegg. That excludes a super fancy case and that water cooling.

I agree with the start of your post to just get one from a manufacturer that has a nice warranty and support, but for 3800 is a bit excessive. Also for that cash you should not be spending any coin for shipping. It should be hand delivered by your supermodel of choice.
I recommend you build the same computer from at least 3 different places, compare prices, and do some searching for coupon codes that can cut some serious $$ from that bill.
I spent $300 less than this when I set my multi-boxing system up and that was 5 computers with glass from Dell.
Multibocks
02-17-2011, 01:36 PM
1. I'm not interested in building
2. Where will this person that builds my system be when I don't know WTF just happened and it doesn't start up?
3. I like using one place for warranties and repairs.
Maybe if I were more interested in computers I would do it myself, but I find the whole process tiresome and not fulfilling.
I haven't settled on Falcon, but I don't want some fly by night operation that closes shop 2 days after taking my money. I bought a Vigor Gaming system last time and was extremely happy with it, however they disappeared overnight not too long ago. Any suggestions are welcome.

Well great now I'm not so sure. I have read that C300 SSDs need TRIM or they lose performance drastically yet the Marvell controller on that Asus board does not issue the TRIM command. What?
I was also thinking of doing RAID 0 with C300s but now...
burningforce
02-17-2011, 03:29 PM
like everyone else, that price is out of this world lol.
also I am not sure you would even need to water cool a 2600k, just buy a great air cooler and overclock it :)
unless you are doing some "extreme benching", water cooling is not worth it these days for cpu's. Video cards are another story, but most of them can be cooled with air. I would go water cooling only if you want a silent running computer :)
as for the SSD question, doesn't the c300s have a native GC (garbage collection) on the drive firmware that performs the trim like functions? Also I am not sure if this has changed or it was a intel SSD limitation, but if you raid SSD's, don't you forfeit trim/GC because of the drives are in a raid?
Multibocks
02-17-2011, 03:40 PM
Water cooling is free in the second setup. Also I didn't know that raid removes the ability to TRIM, so what do you do when your SSD performance drops?

02-17-2011, 05:12 PM
From what I've read your C300s will be great in Raid 0, and Garbage Collection will keep them running fine and you won't get reduced performance.
If you happen to be particularly anal, you may resolve the Raid0 on the SSDs and let them sit so TRIM can then run.

Check out Alienware, I believe they're now associated with Dell.
Chances are they're overpriced, similar to Falcon-Northwest.
But it is another company that does top end stuff.
I've probably find a local store, if you want a warranty and such.
A chain that has several stores might be decent too.
For example, if I want a warranty and such, I use www.memoryexpress.com
Which is a Calgary based company, but have stores in Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Vancouver.
They have a program called IPR - Instant Product Replacement; if something goes wrong, you get the same part brand-new, or a better part from the same manufacturer if your part is no longer available.
It is insurance, so chances are the price is more (on average) than it costs the company.
But no questions asked replacement can be nice, if something goes wrong.
Building yourself (which you said you don't want to do), or finding someone who will build it for you... is an option.
If you give them a couple hundred and buy pizza/beer.
Either approach is going to be a lot cheaper then a store/chain.
But there won't be the warranty.

I'm really not a big fan of RAID 0 on SSDs - you lose TRIM which is crucial to ensuring that the drive array maintains its performance through the life of the system.
If you wait about two weeks there's some wicked fast drives coming out that will be as fast as the current gen in RAID 0. Sorry, I can't mention names. ;)

OK, finally got some free time to sit down and check this config out.
So currently you're configuring one of our B2 stepping Sandy Bridge configurations - we are allowed to sell these by Intel because we offer a discrete HDD controller. We can ship these within 10 days. In about 5 days I'm going to be switching this configuration back to the Intel DP67BG Extreme motherboard as I have a clear timeline on when I'm going to get the new B3 stepping boards in. And quite frankly, it's my favorite P67 board. It also includes 802.11n wireless and is a few bucks cheaper.
So if your money isn't burning a hole in your pocket, you might want to wait - in addition to that new SSD we'll be offering. ;)
Other than that, looks real solid. Don't expect to run more than one GPU off that 660W Seasonic however. It's a wonder PSU that performs as well as many 750W PSUs of lower caliber, but if I were to ever go to dual 580's I'd want an 850.

I generally go for very massive upgrades over the previous system.
And then keep them for three to four years, before the next upgrade.
And then have the current/new system to game on.
The second (previous system) for a web browser or miscellaneous computer.
And the third system, probably 6-8 years old...
Used to be passed along, but lately a bare-bones system for $250 has been superior.
Ironically, my roommate has a huge chain of handing down.
He does upgrades a lot more frequently.
So he upgrades his main system, say MB/Processor/Ram.
Moves that stuff to his second system.
And then moves from there to a friend's system (Mark).
Moves Mark's stuff to Mark's son's system (Kyle).
And with the last upgrade moves Kyle's stuff to another friends system (Jimmy).
They each kept their tower, power supply, hard drives, OS (had to reinstall Windows on a couple of them).
Quite a juggling act.

Anyway the SSD seems a good choice (229 at newegg) but keep in mind that random reads of tiny files is most important for WoW (I was looking at the files accesses and there are a lot of tiny /under 16K/ reads)

Although its dead last in this catagory there is no where near 20,000 i/os a second in wow, probably not even 5000 so ummm ....
I would not trust a $60 850 watt power supply but maybe prices have fallen since I last looked.

While it is no doubt a nice system, I would urge people who can hold out for the time being to wait for LGA 2011 later this year.
Unless AMD brings something to the table, I have a feeling Intel is going to be decimating benchmarks [and wallets] with LGA
2011. We'll hopefully be looking at 6 and 8 core 22nm processors at launch.

Getting rid of a 30"??? Noooooo..... =)
I 5-box on a 30" with all 5 windows overlapping at max resolution. Then I use video feeds from ISBoxer to see portions of the other windows. =)
Before that I had ISBoxer setup regions with the main toon in a large square window and the 4 others to the right side in smaller windows (but at the same resolution). Then I just used a hotkey for each window to swap whichever toon I selected to become the "main" window.
I suppose if you really want to go with smaller monitors, you could go with 3x 20"-24" widescreens and have one in the middle in landscape mode and the other 2 to either side in portrait mode with the main toon in the middle and 2 toons on each side monitor.

Yes I could just destroy it, but I feel bad letting some good stuff not go to someone who could use it.

So I received my computer and it's fucking badass. However Im not really into playing games lately, so it kinda sits there. Money well spent right? I can provide picks if anyone is interested.

data mining the HDs
Just write some movies to the disk to its max fill, reformate, write more movies and do that about 5 times and there will be nothing left to mine. Just make sure you use the whole drive when you partition so everything gets overwritten.

Wait...
You spent $3,300 on a computer that numerous people told you was too much money to begin with and now you don't even
want it?

I am talking about where to put my old computer if you are talking about the brother comment. But yeah I'm not totally into games at this moment. That doesn't mean I don't want the new computer or won't be playing WoW in the future.

Well, then as my fellow friends Wayne and Garth used to say...
Game on! :)
