I'm probably asking for a beatdown....

i spent an extra 50$ on cooling and i saved up about $450 of net savings by overclocking when i first built this comp im using
and now its so quiet too

worth it?
yes if you ask me

i play games much faster, be able to do a lot of things faster

computers are still slow
there are lots of softwares that demand the most out of current generation of hardwares and sometimes even $2000 cannot buy you a really fast comp that can handle almost all the consumer apps flawlessly

so i spend $1500 and then OC to get it to perform like a comp that costs $2000
