^Ya, pretty much.
I eat ~300g chips and ~1kg chocolate every week :)

I do eat healthy normal food though, almost no white bread and junk food.

@Canoas
I use my PC more than enough to warrant this upgrade.

@MrCuddles
Read the rest of the thread :P
I'm probably gonna get that card though.

Maybe if you ate like a king you wouldn't be using the PC so much.

  • Samsung SSD Basic 830-Series 256GB 1 649 sek

  • MSI GeForce GTX 660 2048MB 2 008 sek

  • Fractal Design Define R4 Black 890 sek

  • Corsair Air series SP120, Quiet edition 129 sek

  • Corsair Air series AF140, Quiet Edition 150 sek

And done. It'll hopefully arrive in a week or so.


I decided to go with a different graphics card altogether. The MSI GTX660.
It has a fan comparable to Asus' (%10 louder, but 10% cooler) AND costs 10% less (Asus': 2200sek).

I threw in 2 fans too. One 120mm fan with high static pressure for my CPU heatsink and one 140mm fan for my case.

Update: I changed my order since one of the items aren't in stock (I have to wait for it) anyways.

I removed the Define R4 case because there's a competition for winning the Define R4 case in which I have some hopes for winning. And if I don't win; no harm done, I can just order it again :3
The competition is about finding a good feature to add to the case.

I removed(no response from support yet, though) the 830series 256GB SSD because Samsung is releasing the 840 series in a month and I'm pretty sure I can either get the old one much cheaper or get a good performance boost with the new one.
