    See usually the home user doesnt really need more than 8gb of RAM, 16 if they want bragging rights. But that above is a damn good reason for it.

    It's rare to pass 6gb, but the even number by 2s and 4s messes that up. Gaming rarely surpasses 8 GB with compute or encoding using ~16. Multitasking, rendering, and high-end encoding uses 32 fairly easily then VM will gobble ram.

    I'm guessing by the missing RAM that this is a WIP.


    On the topic of the RAM, I do wish I had a bit more. 8Gb of 1866 MHz RAM is fine for gamig, but I want to start up a Youtube channel and render 1080p videos.
    I'll be running a mic, camera, game, game capture software, and some other things.


    Looked on Newegg to see if I would want to get another GTX 660 ti, there are like 2 models left, and they're priced at around $200. -that moment when you realize your hardware is obsolete-

    There's a single stick right next to the cooler. I didn't get any crazy fluoro pink neon xX420bLaZeItXx heat spreaders.

    You know that if you don't touch the voltages your motherboard will automatically increased them as much as it thinks it needs right? Probably much more than you actually need... Use off-set, it's the best way if you don't want to change the voltage, select off-set and put it to -0.00 or +0.00

    Pretty good rig anyway:)

    Voltages seem stock, Idle it has a Vcore of 1.008, and under load its at 1.272, people with a 4.8ghz oc are apparently using a 1.48vcore so I think I'm doing pretty well, Plust the max temperatures are around 65 for the cpu as a whole, and 75 for a single core (today is pretty hot, usually its about 10-20 degree's cooler)

    Edit here is a picture of a stress test the day I oc'd it was quite a bit cooler that day.
