Let's create a new supercomputer step by step together.
Hello dear friends!Recently raised the topic of buying a PS4 / Xbox One for games. But my choice settled on assembling a new super-powerful computer.
I already have one computer, which is currently strictly used for work. You will find approximate characteristics in my profile.
Now we are going to build a computer many times more powerful. It goes by itself, step by step, since I do not have such a large amount. The estimated assembly time is a year and a half.
I want to note right away that the topic was created not for showing off, but for help and advice from the same geeks like me.
So, the approximate characteristics of the future computer:
Motherboard: ASUS RAMPAGE V EXTREME / U3.1
Processor: INTEL CORE â„¢ I7-5930K
RAM: 64-128 GB
Video cards: 2 or 4 x Nvidia Titan X
Of course a bunch of SSDs and hard drives
Conventional cooling system (planned to use only 6 coolers)
NEED TIPS AND HELP, WHAT WOULD YOU ADVISE?
So, the beginning was made in a rather difficult way.
A computer was bought (in fact - g * but) - the cheapest of the optimal ones that were ready-made. I didn’t want to use it, because what would happen to him in a year. And collecting in parts is long and tedious, and it is more difficult to collect than to change everything one by one.
The characteristics of that computer (g-but the case, g-no power supply, in general, all g-but, only the i3-4170 processor made me happy). But I will say one thing, you can still play.
Starter computer price: 14,500 hryvnia / 550 dollars / 42,000 rubles (Average rate at the time of purchase).
After 3 days (Monday 02/01/2016), a phased improvement began. You can read the details in the next post.
The first step was to purchase one of the most expensive cases AEROCOOL PGS XPREDATOR Orange (EN56472)
Excellent cooling system, 3 built-in large coolers (for two LED backlighting), Full Tower, iron, fan adjustment speed, etc.
Price 4100 hryvnia / 155 dollars / 12000 rubles.

But, I ran into a big problem, the old power supply unit did not fit there ... I had to take a new one.
My choice fell on the Chieftec 1250C (i.e. 1250W).
Price: 5900 hryvnia / 220 dollars / 17000 rubles
Spoiler
Well, for a start, a gaming mouse and
keyboard were purchased: Mouse: Crown CMXG-606 Price: 380 hryvnia / 13 dollars / 1100 rubles
Claudia: Gemix W-210 Price: 500 hryvnia / 15 dollars / 1500 rubles
Spoiler
And your workhorse profile piece. What are you doing? And, since you indicate the hryvnia, then you seem to have a crisis there? Something I am not talking about ...
Well, I finished it off with a 23-inch Samsung TV (I don't remember which model) Full HD + Smart TV
Price: 5600 hryvnia / 210 dollars / 16200 rubles
Spoiler
FIL. Just FIL
Server-side programming, partly on iOS, website design + 3D modeling.
PS I work remotely on foreign sites, I don't care where the crisis is) He only plays into my hands. (I get money in $)
So, jokes as a joke, but at the moment we already have a solid cost, although we bought only 4 worthwhile things (starter computer, TV, case and power supply).
Total costs to start: 30980 hryvnia / 1163 dollar / 89800 rubles
In dollars - where it did not go, but in hryvnia and rubles - it’s scary to look at.
PS For those who will buy this case, keep in mind that the case is gorgeous - excellent CO, powerful, chic design and quality material, ideal for cool systems, but it weighs 18 kilograms !!!
The body is 30 cm wide and 85 cm long!
If you put it on the table, expect right away that you will have to change the table to a larger one, and if there are children in the house, it is better not to put it on the floor, after 15 minutes my son already stuffed seeds and climbed into USB 3.0 with a screwdriver ...
I immediately recall the article in "Gambling addiction" about iron and the heading "I saw you in a dream" ...

Someone sees, someone does.
Let me remind you that the topic is suitable for geeks, ordinary users will not understand it.
the cheapest of the optimal ones that were ready to be
assembled in parts - long and tedious.
Good geek, you can’t say anything. And tell me, please, with what will you power your 4 titans and a dozen disks? And what is so much RAM for? It will be some kind of server, right? Titans?

Now we are going to build a computer many times more powerful. It goes by itself, step by step, since I do not have such a large amount. The estimated assembly time is a year and a half.
We started with this, and this can be finished. For this mega-assembly of yours will be irrelevant by the fall, because more powerful video cards of the new generation will already be released, and not only cards, most likely.
All this verbiage with such an assembly period, not otherwise.
PS: ahh, I didn't understand at first. You collect this monster in stages .. Then it's clear, understandable.
gaming mouse and keyboard were purchased

soooo ... Go to profile. And what do we see?
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-X99-GAMING 5 Processor: Intel Core i7 4790K
Actually, the question is: did you hammer the processor into this motherboard with a sledgehammer or a hammer?
And therefore, I'm inclined not to believe this:

Somewhere here on the forum, the same comrade was revealed already. And more than once.

The power supply I currently have is the Chieftec 1250C, it takes only 3 vidyahi. Although this is already at risk, which is why I wrote 2-4 titanium, it will be used, of course, at 4K resolution, + at the time of final assembly we will look at VR, what they will achieve in a year.
No, exclusively for gaming. I thought about the server before, but refused. I don’t need it at the moment.
-Sergey Viktorovich-
The master told me the same thing, BUT, if, for example, by the time I reach the vidyahi, some Titan W has already been released, so we will consider it, of course, as well as other components. + It should be borne in mind that at the moment I am in Ukraine, and here it is quite problematic with AAA + components, I already had to abandon the Water Cooling, because this is a rarity and there are no normal masters.
-Sergey Viktorovich- I
didn't drive about the sledgehammer. If you mean to break it, then I wrote that this is strictly a working computer.

Pro sledgehammer did not drive . If you mean to break it, then I wrote that this is strictly a working computer.
How did you manage to put the processor with socket 1150 into the motherboard with socket LGA2011-3 ???
-Sergey Viktorovich-
Sorry, I apologize, he is a sucker in Africa! I confess!
Gigabit mother ga-z97-x99-gaming5, looked at the box .... z97 simply forgot to indicate :)
By the way, to the question about feeding:
Really, if you figure 4 vidyakhi, which power supply to put it?
To know what is generally in Ukraine I show:

That is, at the moment I have the most powerful one we have.

Really, if you figure 4 vidyahi
it absolutely makes no sense, because all 4 will not be fully used in games. Already three video cards in a bundle for games is a very dubious purchase. For the optimization of such a bundle is already lame.
-Sergey Viktorovich-
In this case, why are there 4 vidyahi in the top nurses? :) + I have seen many posts about 5K extensions with four views. So everything is real, the question remains open - how?
-Sergey Viktorovich-
And again forget about VR, I don't want to throw a lot of money on a computer and change components every year, because Nobody will even buy them at the price of a used one ... All components will come with a 3-5 year warranty, and I will count on this for such a period without upgrades.
