Title says it all.
One thing it does not say is Damn that hurt the wallet again.

Feeds my 3x30" dells

My Rad that I CONVERTED TO A DUAL LOOP RAD by using my Aquacomputer Airplex Modularity System 360 parts.

Very nice man, glad those blocks worked out for you. I think they look pretty sweet, im biased however.

Very nice sir. Are you having any issues with Tri-crossfire?

Nope no problems.. Works like a champ and has from day one. 8-9 months ago.

Lucky man The setup is gorgeous btw.

EDIT - I didn't notice the T-Virus reservoir until just now - Even better!

bitcoin w/ that biatch

Looks great! Excellent setup :thumbsup:

And I agree, start mining with those bad boys. At current rates that's about $28 a week less electricity.

ugly in my opinion. maybe need better zoomed out shot. then again I like all matching colors after seeing other people's computer.

also why do you have your monitors like that? I don't like that either.

nice specs though.

They rotate, that's an old pick I am now back at landscape.

What kind of electricity costs would I be looking @ at full load I pull about 920 watts at the wall not including monitors.

So the trick to maximizing profit is to mine efficiently. Mining is very simple math and you can run your cards at much lower voltages than is "gaming stable." The most profitable way to mine is to keep your core clock stock (925MHz in my case) and lower the voltage as far as it will go stably (0.931V in my case). Mining performance almost entirely depends on the core clock speed, so you then can reduce the vRAM to ~300MHz (unofficial overclocking in MSI Afterburner helps here). Using these adjustments, my 7970, which loads my system at ~275-300W from the wall during gaming only consumes ~180-185W mining with these adjustments. Now I actually run my clocks much higher in the winter because I use the heat to heat my condo.

Anywho, recalibrating your usage, you'll probably pull ~500W under mining load. The average cost of electricity in the U.S. is ~$0.145 per KWh, so assuming you mine 24/7 in this example, that's $1.74 a day or $12.18 a week. Mining used to be more profitable, but prices are rising again so it may become more profitable once again. Still, that's $15 profit a week for just letting it sit there.

Nice Setup Filezz
Love the rad, awesome

You've made a big mistake, 7970 trifire will be unplayable due to microstutter...didn't you get the memo?

 

[Pedroc1999]

^^ THE ABOVE IS A JOKE! When someone gets an award or does something goof they will use that phrase to joke about with you! It had happened to me before and they almost died! JKS

Nah, this forum is afterall AMDshilltech. You'd have to go to the nV forums to get that memo.

nice setup, congrats!

 

[Pedroc1999]

Do u mind lending me one? Kinda getting tired of my x1600 pro...

 

[Elfear]

Nice OP. How are you liking that Airplex rad? Are you using one 4x120?

 

[railven]

Wife me!

 

[xilience]

Very nice setup, thanks!

Nice OP. How are you liking that Airplex rad? Are you using one 4x120?

It is a 4x120 but spit up inside 30% cpu 70% gpus. This is made for 2 separate loops pumps and res.

you can see in photo number 2 how it is laid out.. 2 in's and 2 outs for a 30/70 setup.

I am just wondering but what were the advantages/feel of having your monitors like the 3rd picture?

Eyefinity this photo is in portrait mode, I usually play/use them in landscape mode.

The feel is great once you get used to it, My wife thinks its too much she has to look and turn her head side to side to use all three monitors, but I love it in games very immersing.
Also great for lots of open screens and working on a lot at the same time.


I have more real-estate then someone with out 3 monitors. My resolution is 7680x1600 that is
3x2650x1500

what is the average and mininum frame-per-second?

says in bf3 with all the eye candy on?
