redrat76 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 12,000 with ssd and overclocked is a bit low, with some tweaking I think you can improve your score. I do not like lots of light but this is a great machine.

BALDY_MAN Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 @ redrat76 thanks for your comment .christine just evolved over 4 years the only plan was to keep the smooth lines of the case which i think I've managed to do i have got two switches so i can turn all the lights off case lights or res lights. or both i have just installed a pci sata card and the nova bench mark for the ssd write speed is 306 MBS AJA System test is showing write 328.4 MBs Read 299.9 thats with web site page open and yes i think its a bit low for the specs i have. but i click the mouse and its instant responce so I'm Happy i will never be using the full potential of the pc its just a hobby for me. that took longer to finish than i expected lol Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/278446-water-cooled-liontosh-christine/#findComment-1818749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrat76 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 For sure this setting is already enough to work with Adobe suite and play good games too. Sometimes I think about buying a ssd and a watercooler to give a boost on my computer but I think it already has an optimal performance and works very well for what I need.

BALDY_MAN Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 well i think a computer is a personal thing as soon as you take it out of the store and turn it on you change thing to suite your self I've gone a bit over the top for my needs. but i like the mechanics of water-cooling and the getting things to fit stage best Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/278446-water-cooled-liontosh-christine/#findComment-1819187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
