MY PC consists of these parts listed in US prices as of the day I bought it:


HD 5870 $400
Samsung XL2370 $300
core i7 $280
antec case $50
logitech speakers $50
logitech keyboard $75
logitech mouse $50
SSD $200
motherboard $100
4gb ram $80

Thats about $1600 in US prices.

US minimum: $7.25
Norway minimum $18

so $1600 X 2.5 = $4000.

I paid $2400 for $4000 worth of PC hardware.

And you paid $800 for a rig worth.... well 800 dollars.

@ MGS, sorry dude but stfu, no one cares and you are coming off like a pompous prick.



Really? I didn't see those benchmarks I guess. What are you hitting? I heard that they just had unlocked multipliers, but no OC potential beyond that. I know their base speeds are really high though.

You keep telling yourself that, little man.

Now just put on your ruby slippers and click your heels together 3 times and say, "there's no place like Norway, there's no place like Norway, there's no place like Norway" and hopefully by that time someone will slap some sense into you.

My computer was far better than yours. lolol Here little guy, I'll break mine down for you.

i5 2500K + TP67XE Mobo - $300
XFX 6870 - $200
NZXT Phantom - $100
NZXT Hale90 PSU - $75
Samsung F3 - $50
G-Skill Ripjaws - $40
ASUS CD/DVD Burner - $15
Klipsch Promedia 2.1's - $75
Logitech G500 - $30
Logitech G15 - $35

Total for my Rig + Peripherals: $920

Total for the look on your face right now when you realize what a horrible purchase you made: Priceless

You just completely ignored my arugement. Nice. $920 rig for $800. thats a decent deal.

Too bad I bought a $4000 rig for $2400. Learn to make a good deal.

I hit 4.5Ghz on mine with the stock cooler but I had to back it down because the Intel coolers blow. People with nice aircoolers or H70's can hit and break 5Ghz easily.

However, it depends on how good of a CPU you received. Some overclock better than others at lower voltages. A lot of them have to run the voltages up far too high to hit 5Ghz which will significantly decrease the life of the CPU.

I was planning on sticking with a 4.5Ghz 24/7 OC but never got the chance to before the recall.

Why did you multiply 1600 x 2.5?

You bought a $1000 Rig for $2400. Please learn to count. lmfao

My $920 Rig > your $2400 Rig. UMADBRO?

Have fun living in Norway.



He's making up imaginary numbers to convince himself he's not an idiot.

...That's kinda what it seems like.

Because a 17 year old high school student working in a store in Norway earns 2.5 X of what an 18+ year old adult in America earns.

Thats the only way we can compare.

Yeah, too bad all of yours goes to taxes. And, you have to live in Norway.
