It's finally here!!

This is a copy from my dA journal

Yes! my new pc is finally here, I ordered it monday last week and it came in 24h, too fast!! I have not had fully time for it last week due the holidays but now all is installed and prepared .

I ordered it by pieces, to building it myself, I only had some problems to allocate the cooler master hyper 212 evo because what a beast and some small connectors from the motherboard but with motherboard user's guide all went ok .

So the final build was:
CPU AMD FX Series FX-8350 4.0Ghz 8X Black Edition
Motherboard Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0
Cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Memory Corsair Vengeance PC3-12800 DDR3 1600 8GB 2x4GB CL9 LP
Storage Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 1TB SATA3 64MB
Graphic Card Sapphire Sapphire R9 280X Vapor-X Tri-X STD 3GB GDDR5
Power Supply Nox Urano VX 750W
*Case Thermaltake Xaser III from my brother, it is old but really big and had 6 coolers, the problem with this is the coolers are very old and loud and I had to remove one from the door because it doesn't be able to close with cooler master 212 evo and was broken, other fan also broke down completly in one day, so i'm now with 4 fans. Other problem I see with this case is the power supply need to be allocated above and not below like all the new cases.

This month I was able to save 100€ more and buy a new power supply and I changed the hard drive to 2tb to 1 to save some money too and buy a better graphic card, that graphic card was in offer in that page. In the following months I want to buy other hard drive because 1 tera is not enough for me and good/quiet fans for the case.

Some screenshots:

                                                                    All boxes

 
                       The graphic card, I said the cooler master hyper 212 evo was a beast but this..                                                                         IS  A MONSTER!!

                        The motherboard with the AMD FX cpu with thermal grease, next step was                                                                                  install cooler master

                      All building in the case finally (next day I changed cooler master hyper  
                                                212 evo  position for better cooling)

                                                                 Ready and closed

The first day I had cpu temperature problems, I know AMD processors are a furnace but that was too much, so I changed cooler master hyper 212 evo position in parallel, added a better thermal grease and changed some case fans position, with this, temperature was a lot better and cpu gets 10 degrees less.

My old pc was an intel quad core Q6600 2.4Ghz, 4gb Ram DDR2 with ATI Radeon HD 5670 and was 10 years old, minus graphic card which was 6, so it is a good improvement.
I tested some old renders and which in my old pc took me at least one hour in new pc took me 5 minutes or less, awesome.

Now, I need to refresh my memory in some programs because more than a year is too much and I have forgotten some things.
Also, my boyfriend gifted me a Wacom Intuos Pen last year for my birthday which is my first digital pad and I had not truly the chance to use it till now so I'm trying to learn how to use and get used to it too, but it's frustrating sometimes, I hope I can learn it soon.
I'm so happy now, a new pc, a wacom.. what else can I ask for? It took me 7 months to save all the money for a new pc but things are finally beginning to go all right with patience .

Thanks for all the waiting and see you soon with new works.
