well i will be ordering my PC components soon.
How much would you recommend me to OC my CPU and GPU with this setup

To cooling
COOLER MASTER HAF X
4x 200mm fans
CORSAIR H80

eVGA 580GTX (i know this is some kind of superclocking version)
Intel Core i5 2500k Sandy Bridge
CORSAIR HX1050
4x CORSAIR Vengeance 4GB 1600



NZXT SEN-001LX Sentry LX (will be able to monitor heat all the time)

Lad vær og overclocke jo mindre du køre programmer der kræver det. Du ned sætter bare levetiden

Well won't be using the components more than a 3ish years.
- Its an most to OC the CPU and GPU in this situation. Haf X gives amazing cooling to the GPU. and the eVGA made this CPU to get OC.
And i5 2500k with an H80 who wouldn't OC ?!

Dumt og ubrugligt og OC allerede godt hardware. for det første får du aldrig brug for alt den GPU dit grafik kort har, du kan sku alligevel ikke se forskel på 60-70 fps og 200.. for det andet kommer din CPU brug alligvel aldrig over 30% jo mindre du spiller starcraft 2 xD

Jeg kommer til at spille Battlefield 2, Crysis 2 og andre highend spil.

Allright then spiller jeg også med fin fin fps, med mit shit i7 950 3,17ghz gtx 460 ingen oc. Skal ikke kunne sige om Oc'ing vil gøre din oplevelse bedre, jeg tror nemlig allerede med de specs at du kan køre det i extreme uden problemer, 60+ fps.

get msi tfIII gtx 580 imo

Any reason why ?
need some arguments.

runs cooler

evga is just a reference pcb board, With reference cooling, With reference voltage regulators.


The twin frozr III's, Are a non reference pcb, With dual fans & heat pipes, And i think the 580 version has some crazy 16 phase vrm

Lets you oc like a madman, While staying cooler than the evga
