Show off (or make us pity) your PC setups

I didn't see any threads about this, so I thought I might as well make one for those of you who wish to share what you're currently running. If there is a thread about setups It's most likely dead so like the meme thread, here's a new one.

Feel free to post specs of your build alongside some photos

Paid £190 for my ssd, much better value than the 970 Pro and little real world difference. Prices have come down a lot, I didn't even consider a hard drive this time around

When I did a concept build a few years ago, prices were still sky high for just like, 256gb versions. Back then I considered just getting an M2 for OS and other essentials, but if the price is that low now, I'm just gonna go whole hog

Wow, that's some decent specs for DDR3 ram. How do you have 12GB, just 3x4 DDR3?

You ever plan on upgrading to DDR4? I'm not really sure how much of a difference it is, to be completely honest.
Click to expand...

the performance difference in my case would be pretty significant, my ram is currently running just barely above 1,000MHz with clunky timings

though I’d have to upgrade a lot, motherboard is 10 years old and doesn’t natively support DDR4 - it’s sort of a part of my future entire pc upgrade plan tbh

That's about everything worthy of noting. The rest just gets worse.

You should really consider overclocking your processor, you have a 360 AIO, and could easily achieve at least 4.9 turbo on all cores.

Forgot to mention that everything which is overclockable is overclocked.
