With a good case - anything is possible.

I bought my LanCool because of this video:

Thanks! Smile

Yeah, I take my time to tidy-up my cables, and clean my system as often I can,
so 1-2 times a month, to keep everything at good health and cool temperatures.

Yes, it's my stone-age old MX518, still working like a champ.
I use it for gaming, but for work I use my Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000.

My keyboard is Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000, and I use it for gaming and work.

I wish I could trow out the ASUS Xonar D2X, because I don't like the ASUS support,
the drivers are horrible and without the UniXonar drivers from community, It is
essentially useless for every OS after Windows 7.

The ASRock 990FX Professional Bulldozer PC

 

I wanted to showcase my 4 years old PC, based on the ASRock Fatal1ty 990FX Professional motherboard.

The first chip I got on this board was an AMD Phenom II X2 555BE, unlocked to B55 and Overclocked to 4GHz with 1.2V!
I tested the same chip on ECS, MSI i Gigabyte 990FX board, none of them could get
4GHz with 1.2V and unlocked core - so I can say this power-delivery system of the
990FX PRO is one of the best ever for AM3+ processors.

 

Right now, Im riding with my old Bulldozer, the FX-8120, overclocked to 4GHz, Turbo OFF, on 1.25V.
It runs cool and smooth. So stable for 4+ years, and I only wish to have a new
CPU chip to test the MBO even more with the Vishera chip.

 

The EFI on my board is a custom L1.91 (last one that runs fine with Bulldozer chip, any new just
bootloop, as You need a Vishera chip to run the latest EFI's), with updated AMD AHCI ROM to
3.2.1.0 and a custom boot logo " Fatal1ty" emblem (I love it more than the Johnatans face).

 

So, to sum things up - this is what You get in setup:

ASRock 990FX Professional with L1.91 custom EFI
AMD FX-8120 @ 4GHz 1.25V
Thermalright HR-02 + 140mm Arctic F14 fan
Patriot Viper Division 2 - 2x 4GB 2133MHz DDR3
MSI R7970 3GB Thiw Frozr III @ Stock
ASUS Xonar D2X with UniXonar drivers
LiteON iHAS124B with firmware MOD to iHAS324B
Samsung EVO850 250GB
WD Green 2TB + 2TB + 3TB for storage, and Seagate 500GB for OS testing and developing
Corsair VX 550W with a YateLoon 2-pin PWM fan (the ADDA that came with it died after 2 years)
LanCool K62-Dragonlord case with 3x 140mm Arctic F14 fans + 120mm Zalman fan

I hope this thread is not overall to long, and that You will like what You see on the pictures bellow!

Leave a comment down bellow what You think about my rig, and what should I upgrade next.
Maybe it's time for a new AMD chip, or a new ASRock board, like the 990FX Extreme9?

As for what I wish for is the ASRock Game Blaster - but I can not buy it anywhere in my region.

PS - I hope this topic qualify for "Win Big Prizes From AMD & ASRock!" giveaway!
