Hi Folks,
Yes, i can admit it's been a while. I was so busy to focus my blog page and to be honest i was cheating on with Twitter. Anyway this post is about my new computer, there are not much challenges to share with you however there are some interoperability issues maybe you're interested.
I got my new Asus Sabertooth P67 motherboard as a start it has TUF design and certified with military standards :) Yeah i know it seems a lot but you know this is my only addiction :)
Well to be honest i would like to put an i7 in the heart of this capable motherboard however Intel i7 2600 series are so expensive these days, maybe in future :( So i put Intel i5 2500 (yeah not 2500K, you know i dun like O/C stuff)
Last thing is the RAM selection, it is a very important decision, i have done some stupid selection with previous OCZ sets. But this time i just hit the right spot with Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 2*4GB dual set. My new RAMs and my mobo have been already tested and it is working without a problem.
I have 3 HDDs and 2 of them is SATA2 and the lastest one is SATA3, Sabertooth have 4 ports of SATA2 and 4 ports of SATA3 ports and they're also working properly from beginning.
Only problematic thing is my sound card which is Creative Audigy, it sounds some sort of metallic noise sometimes, i used to had this bad experience and it has been solved with a driver refresment, now i'm trying to fix it.
Some hardware info regarding CPU temp. with stock fan which is 33-35 C in idle, 45-50 C normal gaming, 75-80 C under very heavy load (torture mode) like benchmark programs. It's quite enough.
So what happened to left overs of Mayhem? :) Well i'm planning another project for it, i will share the details with you guys soon.
Cheers
