15 Coolermaster JetFlos??? That thing must sound like a vacuum cleaner on steroids!
My pc is loud as well… but it only runs 2 JetFlos, 2 SickleFlos, and 5 stock Coolermaster case fans.  Have a listen to mine… I fire it up at about 04:46 into the vid.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYsHEcQnMgU  It’s not as loud when I remove the DDR3 cooler… those little fans spin at something crazy high like 8000 rpm.

*next upgrade… the Club GPU if we win the contest today.

[MAXXHEW]

I own 3 R7-260X’s.  I have to say it is a great little card that is very capable of running the newest games at very playable settings… from medium to maximum, with excellent framerates.  My 10 year old son and I use the R7-260X’s for single monitor 1080p gaming.  Recently I won an R9-285 from AMD… they were doing a Twitch livestream, and they were celebrating their 1 year anniversary of Mantle.  While taking tech questions from the gaming public, they were also doing a contest during the Twitch stream… I won it.
     So anyways, I ended up with an extra R7-260X that just sat on the desk unused… I installed the R9-285 in my desktop, my sons current desktop now runs Crossfired R7-260X’s.  For Christmas 2014 I put the extra card into the new desktop I built for my son to put in his bedroom… this new system uses the new FX-8320E, R7-260X, and 8GB DDR3.
     Yeah we love gaming, and we really like AMD products… great performance, with a price that doesn’t leave us feeling ripped off.  Here is the picture of the Christmas present I built for my son… he’s gonna be so happy today!  Merry Christmas Everyone!

Hello… you can call me MAXXHEW.  I found this forum through a Tweet.  There is a contest going on, so I thought I’d join in on this site.  Looks well made and informative.  A gaming friend of mine uses and recommends Club GPU’s…. he lives in Netherlands, but here in the U.S.A. it’s kinda hard to find them.  I would love to win that R9 CLUB card because I’m building a gaming PC for my 10 year old sons Christmas gift… I don’t have all the pieces yet, so every little bit would help.  He would be SOOOO happy, and the CLUB R9 would get a lot of daily use! Anyways… here’s what I currently play with: [img]http://i.imgur.com/KBzX4mc.jpg[/img] I’m glad I found this site. Thank You.
