I've been wanting to lap my I7 920 because there arent any affordable 32 nm upgrades yet, but its still covered by warranty so I'll wait until I've had it for almost 3 years.

I dont think a <£250 32 nm quad is going to ever be released for LGA1366 which I've been wanting for ages, so I'll just lap the one I have and keep on using that.

Default My finished Rig for GW2 and other things

Hi all. I finished building my PC earlier this year. was going to go with a sandybridge setup but didnt have enough patience to wait after the recall. I dont have any pics of the inside but will post one soon.


Antec 1200 Tower
ASUS 23 HD Screen
random $50 speakers
ASUS P6X58D Premium Mobo
intel i7 960 3.2ghz quad core
12gb (3x4gb) Corsair DDR3 Ram
Nvidia Geforce GTX 570 graphics card
500gig seagate HDD (didn't really care to get a bigger one)
random HP DVD drive
stock cooling (my tower has like 6 fans anyway)

The one thing I really want to do to it is upgrade to a SSD (Solid State Drive) which will boost the rating of my pc from 5.9 to 7.5-.9 but they just cost too much money right now so I will be waiting before I do that
