Software Development

I work in a quiet home office and any noise can be irritating. But I also wanted the most powerful computer I could build. I do not do any gaming so the GFX card just needs to perform well for everyday tasks and occasional 3D CAD work. I also did not want water cooling as I leave my computer on 24/7 and was uncomfortable with leaving it unattended.
This build far exceeded my expectations. Located around 4' from my ears, it is completely silent for 95% of what I do. For the fun of it I ran some benchmarks to see how it handles heat under stress. I set the BIOS to Intel recommended values (i.e. no overclocking/undervolting at all). To my surprise on Cinebench R23 it scored 36,981with a max core temp of 77 digress C. I am sure I could get a higher score with some tweaking (P1/P2 currently limited to 253W) but since silence is a priority, I am happy with it as is for now. Very responsive and completely quiet.
