Looks so good! You should put a custom graphic or sticker on the hard drive, looks pretty dumb there but I understand this is a small case. What LEDs did you use?

 

It's just a cheap generic RGB lighting with remote I found online... Cheers!

Tends to get noisy when playing games.

 

Stock Clock : Idle at 28C ; Load : 63C

Overclocked : Idle at 28C ; Load : 88C

 

Waiting for NH-L9x65, I hope there's a reduction at least a few degrees...  :D

sounds nice enough i mean it isn't too bad considering the size 88 is not bad overclocked :) ! 
hte nh-l9x65 should help it is bigger and should have a higher heat capacity. 
also i would turn the 92mm fan you have in the back around so it an intake rather than a exhaust because it would provide some fresh air. but each to their own.

This build is so clean, love the custom cut out window and lighting. I ordered a v4 should be coming in a month. :)

 

I wasn't sure if I wanted to go with a noctua and go air cooled or either go with AIO with a corsair h100i.

 

Please update with more pics when you change our the heatsink :)

Did you end up switching out the heat sink for the Noctua NH-L9x65?
