The fans are all pointing at his gigantic radiator, plus it looks boss as hell anyway.
Special night time blurry dark shot of my case:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/lvAMC.jpg[/img]
Installed a push/pull onto my H60 as corsair sent my four more screws (for free!!), I still need more UV reactive things so I ordered a few UV cable ties which should spruce it up, UV lights look so classy compared to normal LED's.
One question though, should I have UV lights + blue LED's/red LED's or just keep the UV only?
Agree for UV only.
Disagree for UV + blue LED's.
Tool for UV + red LED's.
Thanks!
TJ07 is a boss case.

take the stupid plastic crap off the motherboard, it's doing nothing but increasing temps

I want it.
I know what case I am getting next now
[QUOTE=reapaninja;30530433]take the stupid plastic crap off the motherboard, it's doing nothing but increasing temps[/QUOTE]
It makes it look so clean, I'm saving or a P67 Sabertooth and a 650D too, 650D is so sexy like most/all corsair products.

A SATA quickport in there would be more appropriate. :keke:

Yep. Gotta love my 800D, even it's windowed panel is pretty clean :v:

I wasn't saying that it was bad, it's just a lot of fans.
It does look badass though. Is it noisy?

I don't have a clue, at the minute I'm treating this thread as a "post idiotic or supra cool computers here" which I think people enjoy so far, wouldn't mind having the computer myself though.
Although, as a small update to my own computer I've bought some white gloss spray paint and I plan on taking my fans and painting the blades white (just the blades) and it should give it a cool look.
I may also paint my sata cables and a few other silly looking cables white too, give it a black on white look.
Just got 100 black cable ties! :woop: Gonna have a massive cable management re-org tomorrow.

I think we should tackle your cable management next
Sorry for the awful quality. I wish I could put my 2 HDDs together in the top two compartments, then I could remove the bottom ones and get better airflow. However when I put them close they make a really bad pulsating humming sound.

Surely that won't stop all vibrations though? I'll definitely give it a try however!

Route the 4-pin CPU power cable round the back of the motherboard or case, mine was too small to route around the case but fit under the motherboard fine.
Get some cable ties and open the back panel and use the little sticky our metal bits to keep the cables out of sight when looking at the case, you can see all the cables dropped behind the back of the case.
Also replace the harddrive lacks, you can see all the cables and it doesn't look great, airflow won't change much and shouldn't change temperatures.
And if you're really serious about it looking good get sme white/black spray paint and spray your wires so they are the same colour, buy some cable ties and keep them close or you can just get some braided cable sleeve and some sleeve them without spray paint, but that's much more tedious.
Cable ties are the staple of good cable management unless you have a modular PSU and an expensive case, you can get a lot off of ebay for very cheap or go to your DIY store or even poundshops sell them, I get these:
[url]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/100mm-x-2-5mm-Black-Cable-Ties-pack-110-/260796065218?pt=UK_Computing_NetworkingTools_Accessories_SM&hash=item3cb8a825c2[/url]
Perfect size for cable management in a case and only 99p and free shipping, can't go too far wrong for that price.
[QUOTE=Sc00by22;30552669]Surely that won't stop all vibrations though? I'll definitely give it a try however![/QUOTE]
A great way to keep them quiet is to get longer cable ties (300mm) and simply wrap them around the harddrive and harddrive bays, it worked fine with mine and looks very neat and tidy and I hear no sound at all, these should do the trick:
[url]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/300mm-x-3-6mm-Black-Cable-Ties-pack-100-/250835537970?pt=UK_Computing_NetworkingTools_Accessories_SM&hash=item3a66f69032[/url]
Although you won't need 100 for just the harddrives so I recommend going to a poundshop or DIY and pick up like 10 for £1.
Recently I managed to switch from my old C2Q build to the current Sandybridge i7.

That's like Christmas in summer!

Here some decent chassis, the DELL XPS730 (in this pic still with my old build inside)
[IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/xps730c_02zdpq.jpg[/IMG]
Makes a nice glossy front . . . which collects dust in a matter of moments! FUCK!

Here the back and right side.

Love how the motherboard is mounted on the other side. (still the old GA-P35-DS4 in here)

Open up dat case and open it is.

Mounted out the sound card, gonna reuse it. <3
[IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/xps730c_08rhl6.jpg[/IMG]
Mounted out the old HD4870X2, never gonna go for a 3port graphics card again. But this one's quiet, produced some insane heat even when in idle though.

Motherboard and motherboard tray removed.

Unleash the replacement motherboard ASUS P8Z68 V-Pro
[IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/xps730c_11tgen.jpg[/IMG]
I could puke on its design, but hell, I like the features and it performs quite well.
The CPU . . .
[IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/xps730c_12xi6v.jpg[/IMG]
build that shit in
[IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/xps730c_13hgsw.jpg[/IMG]
Afterwards I made a first test without GPU, Soundcard and HDDs... and it failed, coz of some selfmade adapter in order to connect the DELL chassis to this motherboard.
After I got it fixed, I forgot to make a pic of the open build with the HD6990 inside.
Anyways, here a pic of the PC when on. (notice Lara Croft on top of it)

The other side.

and here a pic of the HD6990 running . . . I know the light conditions of my room are not really the best ones. :/

you should have gotten two 6970s if you needed that much power

I got it for 200€ less than original price, so I guess I'm fine with that.
