Pictures, please, Lild1991!!
I'll try to get some soon. Gotta get my camera back from my brother first.
Looks extremely sexy Daveric! Looks cleaner without the LEDs in my opinion though. No SSD?
Did anyone else notice the boot error in the first picture of Daveric's post?
I went ahead and did some cable management looks a lot better and now i don't think "oh no..." every time i have to open the back panel
Wow that looks superb sir! Great work!
Thx Deltrus! just wait for next month were i'll have all the cable sleeved and taking my computer to a friend of mine who have one hell of a camera to take some better pics
I'm always here, watching.... waiting...
Yeah the back of mine looks nothing like that...you have inspired me.
Edit: the forum ate my other post.
Yeah...I forgot to put the windows install disk in to reinstall (using the same hard drive from my old rig which you can see in the corner in one of the pictures) and it was looking for old hardware. It turns out that pic had the best lighting with system on.
No SSD yet, though it is planned, and I've already replaced the top fan with two non led fans I had lying around. Eventually I will replace them with a set of corsair af120s (or the 140mm version if there is space), and I'll switch that front fan out as well. I had to cut out the fans and the ssd to justify the 670 with my CFO (the wife).

I'm not satisfied with the cablemanagement ... hate the cables on the right from the Sentry 2. :/
Need to upgrade my peripherals. After I cleaned up my room in a few days I'm going to take photos from my desk and additional from my rig.
I would suggest getting some low-profile RAM, I bet it would fit under the H80 no problem.

^Essentially the same RAM but smaller heatsinks.
Yeah, thanks! I know them but with my old rig I haven't needed low profile and the high profile were a lot cheaper at my retailer. :/ I don't know how much performance I am giving away with the current state (didn't found anything on google about this issue). Low profile on the left and the high ones on the right should also function or am I wrong? If the performance impact isn't that great this "upgrade" has to wait. ^^
Ah thanks! So it's quad channel or single channel and nothing in between. In that case my peripherals and the second SSD have to wait (but I think I can make a ramdrive with the additional ram sooo ... more to research. :P That's my first self build rig so I take gratefully any advises from you guys!
Getting my new GTX680 Twin Frozr OC today, very excited. Will post a picture of my complete rig later today.
Can't help but notice how most people have their cases on the left side...and against a wall or something similar and the window is also on the left side of the case so it serves no purpose at all....
Thanks Tetris for the monitor & Marest for the build!

Worked on the first boot, going to install OS, now I'm going to get some well deserved food :P
The build is made to be used as a HTPC/LAN rig, Dreamhack is in 2-3 days so it's perfect timing. (Except I don't know how the hell I'm going to carry it all the way to Jonkåæøping, Sweden from Denmark... Tetris/Marest do you have a car? :3)
