^ Love it. Great Job man! That rad could be mistaken for my Truck's transmission cooler 🙂

Slowly switching to orange. Still a bit of red stragglers left. SATA cables are proving to be a challenge. Thinking I'm going to paint some black ones and see how it goes.

I absolutely love black/orange color scheme in cases! I few years ago I build a HL2 case mode and at that time, orange hardware was unheard of.

The Xigmatek fans really turned me on to it. Those fans are just gorgeous. I really wanted to get the Biostar Z77 board that was orange to go with everything, but they were OOS everywhere for a good 2-3 weeks when I was ready to buy, so I went with the mostly neutral Asrock Extreme6.

Yes I'm one of those people that buys hardware based on what it looks like, lol.

ran into extra money, I'll redo stuff and post it again

Extra money is already fun :biggrin:

Reminds me, I have to finish my taxes... Hopefully I'll run into some extra money as well.

Likely adding another radiator to my CPU loop, de-lidding, and going nuts.

Or adding another 360 rad and dropping the fan speeds down really low to make the machine very silent.

My new case and rig upgrade. On air right now, been looking at WC kits, not custom looped though.

Decided to try liquid cooling, Corsair H110. Also added some braided cables. Most likely next up is braided USB cables.

Built this just last night. Pretty happy with the results. Will rearrange cable again tonight for a cleaner look.

Looks good, even with cables the way they are! I know quite a few here like to make them invisible though. Nice looking case. I like the black and white contrast.

That's a lot of open space. Great job with cable management.

I'm curious if you've tried turning off / blocking the rear lower fan to see if that improves temperatures. It looks like the straight air path through the bottom might not do much.

I found hoses for $5 and put them on my cables, tell me what you guys think

the focus on my camera sucks

 

[ehume]

Pretty.

 

[dragantoe]

Pretty.

wait till you see it with the new paint job

That's a lot of open space. Great job with cable management.

I'm curious if you've tried turning off / blocking the rear lower fan to see if that improves temperatures. It looks like the straight air path through the bottom might not do much.

If it is off or blocked the GPU temps go up. I have 3 x 120mm in the front and 2 x 120mm fans in the back. If the PSU is down in that corner the temps really go up. It keeps fresh cool air for the 680 to pull from instead of hot air swirling around in the bottom corner. I got this case just for doing this.

Your rig is totally hosed now. (sorry, couldn't ressist 😀)

Finally got my setup the way I like it:

I call this the wind tunnel:

2x 3000 rpm Ultra Kaze 38mm fans...

 

[JimmiG]

Nothing special, but it's my new build 🙂

 

[Alan G]

Funny that on the AnandTech home page today was a SFF build using the new Haswell chip. I just finished a new SFF Office PC for my wife with a Lian Li PC-Q27 case. Components are as follows:

Gigabyte GA-H77N WiFi Motherboard
Intel 3225 i3 CPU
Samsung 120GB SSD
8GB Crucial Ballistic RAM
Western Digital 500GB Blue HD
Silverstone NT07 CPU Cooler
Seasonic G-360W PSU


I cannot show you the 'final' build because once the PSU is in place you cannot see anything. Here it is just before the PSU goes in.

went to autozone and had a little fun with some red caliper paint 😎

would not recommend... coverage was not perfect and the fumes almost killed me but the 932 came out pretty sharp for my latest iteration.

AMD FX-6350
ASUS Crosshair V Formula Z
ASUS Radeon HD7970
Sound Blaster Z
Seasonic X-750 PSU
Samsung 840 series SSD
Swiftech H20-220 edge (custom)
Cooler Master HAF-932 (custom)
