Custom Gaming System - Cooler Master HAF 932 / Core i7-920 / EVGA X58 / 6GB Corsair XMS3 / EVGA GTX 285 Superclocked

Some customers have a vision into what the most beautiful should look like.  They select the options on our website and we start to build it.  We then realize just how awesome a computer some of these systems really are.  This system was chosen and configured by an actual customer and we are displaying it here for your viewing pleasure.

Right before us we have a very nice gaming system based on the Core i7 technology.  We have a very OC Core i7 920 in there on my favorite motherboard, the eVGA X58.  We have a GTX 285 in there with a Corsair 750W.  There is literally tons of room in this case to allow further expansion such as SLI, multiple hard drives, or even a full liquid cooling setup.


 


So while the performance of this system may not be as high as a specially configured system, there is plenty of expansion capabilities just waiting to be configured.


 


We were able to get an overclock of 3.35 GHz using a bCLK of 160 and multiplier of 21x.

    I hear that each I7 CPU OC's differently. Some will not OC as well as others. Is this random occurrence,  batch numbers or manufacturing date have any bearing on how high you can  overclock ablity of the I7 920 CPU with reasonable stability. Seeing this is a noctura air cooler and in a HAF 32case I would think the OC number to be a little higher for this set-up unless it was an issue with the ram voltage and timing. I apologise if I am off target here, I'm still learning the ins and outs of OC the I7 920 CPU.
