So this box just arrived while I was home for lunch

 

I will be building this tonight, however I didn't have enough money to order my SSDs, or my H100i, and my second 780ti isn't going in until next month,

 

But im off for work for like 4 days so figured I would build this tonight and update as time goes on

 

this was a photo off my iPhone 5 but I will use my DSLR when I do the build so you can see

 

 

 

EDIT : here is the build video - Filmed on a Nikon D800

 

 

EDIT 01/05/2014

Ok so I have been paid, time to order more stuff going to order another 8GB of ram, but I am stuck on cooler

 

Any recommendations for a cooler? no real budget for me , I really dont feel like doing a custom loop I cannot be bothered

 

So, shall I go for an AIO water cooler? try squeeze a h100i/h105? or stick an h80i on the back mount?

Or shall I get an air cooler, I need it match the aesthetic of my build red and black, and very clean inside, (ALSO quiet as I record in this room)

 

any help would be appreciated!!!!! (second 780ti will not be going in yet as it would have 0 benefit at the moment)

 

Also are the corsair SP/AF fans anygood? they would really match the aesthetic of my build, recommendations welcome

Don't like the window on that case, but it's probably easy to mod :P

Looks like its gonna be good, very similar to my build save for the gpus. i got the lightning 780's rather then the gaming 780ti's and a different case. just waiting on water cooling now myself.

Cool!  I recently built my rig as well.  Nothing like yours but I think the cable management is alright.  I also need to do upgrades, right now all I have is a 120GB 840 EVO x_x.  I cant wait to see your rig fully done!  Awesome job :D

probably, though from reviews they seem quite loud? I have a condenser mic just a few feet from the PC

for liquid cooling 

http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=404&area=en

 

Or http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=398&area=en

 

The surface area is so packed,all the better to cool the cpu

 

If this is not avaliable then go for the h80 or h100
