I don't want to be the big bad mod to come in and rain on anyone's parade, but peripheral talk and personal impressons and inflections would make a great topic for the ever-growing chat thread!

I just built this computer about a month ago and I am quite happy with it considering my last PC was a Gateway fx6800.
If concerned entirely about looks, acetal.

Is that a tanning salon you have in your computer?
Intel i5-3570K @ 4.7GHz | MSI Z77 Mpower | Noctua NH-D14 | Corsair Vengeance LP White 1.35V 8GB 1600MHz
Gigabyte GTX 670 OC Windforce 3X @ 1372/7604MHz | Corsair Force GT 120GB | Silverstone Fortress FT02 | Corsair VX450
I would hate to have to try and sleep with that PC in the same room, looks good but my god the lights.
Update: Ordered blue sata cables and going to order blue/black ram and an MSI 7770 (possibly) to start color matching my case components. The red Viper 3 ram and Red ASUS 7750 is clashing badly, (with my blue motherboard) now that I can actually see inside my new case cause of the window. Never cared before but now that I can see inside the case its setting off my OCD. New Color Scheme will be Blue and White inside a Black Case. See Album
I'm wondering if I could just strip the heat spreaders off my ram and maybe reskin them?
Not looking for a boost, meerly a color match, and I had wanted to get a 7770 instead of the 50 in the first place, the 50 was just on sale at the time. Now the 70's are on sale and the MSI one is black with blue accents which will match what I'm trying to do in my case.
I got myself a bunch of drill-bits and stuff, so I deriveted the 600T's 5.25" bay and drilled holes for mounting the D5 pump-res combo on. The result? Pretty neat.
This may be just a test-run. I'm undecided whether to build the particular setup being considered in the 600T or the 650D; the first has more watercooling potential, but will be a lot more work before I can call it complete. The 650D hasn't been touched, and I don't have to with the rads I've planned from the start, so I'm undecided on this one.
ALL THE PIXELS.
I still need to find a dual monitor stand so I can set the ASUS MW221U's up properly, but they're not available in Greenland. The closest I can get to that is a single monitor stand for $150 each.
Specs:
AMD FX-6300 w/NH-D14
Gigabyte GTX 670
AMD Radeon HD 5450
Gigabyte 970A-UD3
Cooler Master Test Bench v1.0
Antec Earthwatts 550w PSU
128GB Kingston HyperX
1TB External USB 3.0
Peripherals:
1x Achieva Shimian 2560x1440
1x Xerox XM7 1680x1050
2x ASUS MW2212 1680x1050
1x Samsung S22B 1920x1080
QPad MK-80 MX Blue
Logitech G400
Mionix Sargas 900 mousetable
Only noticing very light backlight bleeding on the Achieva Shimian, can only really see it when I make the monitor go full white. Other than that I haven't noticed any dead pixels or dust.
