Hello @NZXT-Eric, I have a question regarding your Hue+ RGB LED strips: Are they compatible with the Asus AURA software and can they be hooked up to the RGB header on the motherboard like my Asus Rampage V Edition 10?

Ah
I have a 5930K for my PC, which do basically everything I do on it. Right now I'm creating something in Maya which I will export and to some touch-ups and the render in 3ds Max. So having 12 threads available for me to use in that kind of workflow when I go and do the renders. My school has workstations that mostly comprises of Quadro K2000D's (lol why do I need a Quadro right now? I game on my computer too), 4960X CPUs, 16GB of RAM (albeit dual channel and not quad like mine), Asus Rampage IV Blacks, and Antec HCG 900 80 Plus Bronze PSUs. The school computers for my Animation and Video Game Development classes were built by Southland Technologies.
One computer has a 3970X, 32GB of RAM, an Asus P9X79 (with FireWire connectors!), and a Quadro K5000, all powered by a Seasonic X-Series PSU of unknown capacity. That one is built by Boxx Technologies.
Oh and mind you, mine is more overpowered than the school computers because I overclocked it (mine can certainly do higher, I did already. But to tame the heat my 5930K spits out, I am currently running it at 4.2 GHz)

My 5930k is an overboard PC. Although since it gets used for servers, it kinda helps in a game like Arma 3 where it loves RAM on the servers end.

AX1200 not the I PSU
Corsair 760T white
It's got a glass tube loop, except around the GPU. It's 980ti died, I rma'd it,and ended up letting a friend use that and he bought that card off me. So now it's running one of my old 670's. The loop in it is ghetto, since I took out the 980ti, but I dont care.. If I ever bought a good GPU to stick in it, I can reuse the glass bend I have from the CPU down to the first GPU.
Current it's glass loop to the IN on the cpu waterblock, then goes soft tubing back to the resevoir. Since it's running a GPU Im not getting a waterblock for. I ghetto modded it so it could keep it's cooling without too much hassle.
Its loop goes from the Resevoir, to the rad, to the CPU then back to the Res. Since I took out the original gpu it had when I built the loop. The 670 is just in there because it works, lets me plug a HDMI cable into it when I need to look at it, and since it's in the closet, it's looks dont matter that much.
I had a leak and destroyed my original board, but the CPU made it out. Killed its 980ti too. Now its fine with it's glass/soft tubing loop. I may just stick a 1070 in it, watercool it so it looks good again. See if I can try to reuse the old tubing I have from the CPU to GPU block.
I treat it like a server, but at once point it used to be my daily used PC, then I watercooled it and since it's been treated like crap. It runs so much and is such a vital PC for me, that I'd have to re set up alot if it ever died.
