Project Storm Trooper

Lethal Squirrel

Here is my new build. I know it doesn't have the most expensive hardware out there, but it's completely adequate for me. I built this pretty much as a gaming only rig, so there are a few things lacking like beastly ram and hard drive space. I've always loved that storm trooper look of mostly white with some contrasting black, so that's the look I was going for here. 

I'm sure my rig isn't expensive and beastly enough to make it on the live stream, but ya' never know! :P

 

Hope you guys like it. 

 

Specs:

 

CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K @ 4.2Ghz

I like this, I like this very much!

Is this the real life? Or is this just fantasy?

Very nice build I like it very very much :3

 

Nice mod on the tubing for the H100 and also love the white backplate for the 660ti :D

 

Great cable management on the front. Simplistic is a word I would describe this build.

 

Cable spaghetti in the back could use some cleaning up though :p(Personal preference)

 

Great work overall ^^

Thanks Guys! That was the best I could manage with the cables in the back. I actually redid everything like 3 times trying to make it neater. there are literally 50 zip ties holding all those wires down though xD

nice job, I like all the white accents (GPU back plate, H100 tube mod, and sleeved cables) and the matching keyboard :). Does the H100 perform any better after the mod?

nice and clean, maybe for the CPU tube cover, change the zip ties to white or clear, very nice though

This is very nice. Especially the GPU backplate.

I'm just a soul who is up to no good.

All I did was stretch tubing over the existing tubing, just for looks lol. there are pictures of me doing so lol.  no difference at all in the performance. : P

Very nice. At first I thought you had actually disassembled the H100 and replaced the tubing. What you did was, of course, a lot more sensible.
