  1. nice job I have a black and yellow build i painted myself, love the color scheme! look into msi big bang
  2. i just started an internship with a ECE company that uses a lot of python. I code primarily in C so over my week break (my uni goes by trimesters, on break now) I decided to pick up a Python book. This language... no line termination (;) or variable declarations.... plsgo
  3. thanks! painting the case was very nerve racking, was really hoping I wouldnt mess it up or make it look sloppy ahhh wasnt out at the time although every now and then i think about picking it up
  4. Please bear with me guys; there are a ton of pics and it doesnt get really good until the very end! From budget build to custom painted, I'll try to post all the pics I have lol, see the progress through my first time watercooling. So here's where it all started when I build it for the very first time 1.5 years ago: and the inside: i5 2500K + Zotac 560 Ti Amp! Edition + 4GB RAM Temps on the 560 Ti were getting really high and I was getting pretty nervous about it compared to other 560 Ti owners so I ended up diving into the watercooling foray. Picked up an Azza Toledo, unfortunately no pics of the before watercooling but here's after I pretty much stripped down the entire case to fit 2 X 240mm Rads: pic with the light off PC on: Of course I couldnt keep the pc like that forever lol so I ended up getting a Thermaltake Level 10: hated the case, returned it within the week. the top "handle" was cheap plastic secured to more cheap plastic and lifting it by that handle would pop one end of it slightly out which made me very nervous. I didn't lift it up often so that wasnt the returning point. The hot swap bay was cool, but the connector hub was very cheap and I ended up breaking 2 SATA ports just plugging in cables, this was the last straw, so I brough it back and ended up getting an 800D! Finally, a case that fits both of my rads comfortably! Shortly after I ended up swapping out the 560 Ti for an EVGA 670 FTW edition with an ek waterblock: full pic: at one point had a sign: and then finally came the time when I changed the tubing to UV reactive yellow and painted the case myself, first time painting ever! dissassembling: painting: finished painting: pic of rig with the lights off and PC on: then I had a brief stint with the Bitfenix Prodigy where I wanted to carry my rig around in a more portable form factor so I got the case and an mini-ITX mobo. side by side comparison with my lunchbox: unfortunately the mini-itx mobo I was using was having issues and the PCI slot stopped working. Plugged in a different GPU, still didtn work, tried a different power supply, RAM, processor, etc. Figured out it was the mobo, so ended up exchanging it for a new one, same mobo. Worked for a few days then PCI slot died again. Fed up with driving back and forth from MicroCenter so I ended up returning the case and the mobo and getting a new mobo (previous one was asrock current one is MSI) ditched the ITX and went back to the beast and a current window pic: also heres a pic of my current keyboard (cherry mx black by ducky with clear keycaps) next to my old one (razer black widow ultimate) Final system specs: MSI Z77A GD65 16GB RAM i5 2500K 670 FTW 2 X 120GB SSD 1TB HD
