  1. Looks awesome! Try to take some outside pics or if you have a DSLR camera take some pics without the flash and mounted on a tripod.
  2. Wow! Love the panels with the 3 stripes!! Well done! What are you using for your camera? The pics look awesome!
  3. Awesome work buddy!! The only thing that sticks out a bit is the red lettering on the psu. Like fitting 10lbs of poop in a 5lb bag! Looks awesome! Really classy job! Good luck with BOTM!!
  4. Looking good. I personally would go with 2 480s because you can. One up top and one in the basement. Have you considered the evga Hydro Copper cards? They come with the full swiftech block and will save u a bit of money. I have one and plan on getting another. Evga warranties the card even if there was a leak. If you went with another 780ti and then added the water lock you void the warranty. The mayhems coolant is nice but is more of a show coolant. Lots of people use it on here but I really like the EK coolant. One important tip I have for you it get the biggest tubing size. I personally use the 1/2 ID primochill tubing which allows a large amount of volume and less stress on the pump. I have the mcp655 turned down to the lowest setting so there is no noise at all. I game in triple monitor surround. My780 never goes above 37 degrees!!
  5. Absolutely love it. Making some changes shortly and adding another quad. Best case I have owned.
  6. how about a completely external rad setup? With quick disconnect hoses to making the moving around part easier. I personally would look at the new case. I have both the c70 and the 900d. I love the C70 but it is not built to house all that rad space. So I have seen some rads that are like 120 x 9 that some people have setup externally.
  7. Awesome! Love the chair!! Is that the old B&O sound system that Apple was selling about 10 years ago? Loved that system. Great job on the monitor install.
  8. Sleeving, new tubing to redo my loops, at hydro copper GTX 780, para cord and a 2nd PSU for my 900d case.
  9. absolutely incredible! You should put this up on Million Dollar PC for their contest! One of the cleanest builds I have ever seen! I have a question: Where did you get those little black clips for your wires? Can you please provide a link? Also, just a suggestion - I would move the upper vid card cables behind the water line that it is front of at the very bottom - It breaks up the lines. Just my $0.02 AWESOME work! I vote BOTW!!
  10. Love this build. You have spent a fortune on this build. Love it!
  11. Looks awesome man! Can't wait to see the finished pics!! Bring on the updates!!
  12. Looks great so far! Looking forward to the finished build!!
  13. Great work! I love scratch builds.
  14. Bro! I think you need to really slow down with the spending and plan out your build. $450 + tax for the 900D is too much. I got mine from NCIX (canada) for $350 taxes in. This was when it first came out and I had pre-paid when it first hit their website. I have spent a small fortune myself but I did have a plan - yes there have been hiccups along the way and some of the plans did change but I researched everything before I pulled the trigger. That being said, I have over $5000 into my rig. Happy building!! Looking forward to some pics of all the machines you have been building and tearing down.
  15. wow. Wish my 900D looked like yours!! Well done!! Can you share some pictures of the basement of your case? Especially the back side please. I'm hoping to see how you laid out your piping on the bottom rad. Really great work!
  16. Agreed with the pump setting recommendations. I personally have my pump at 1 but I'm using 1/2" ID tubing so it moves lots of volume.
  17. +1 for prebuilt NAS. Just did it myself. Love it! Works with my phone anywhere in the world.
  18. Having gone through this just last week my recommendation is to look at the QNAP. I know it's not on your list but you should consider it. In my opinion, it has the best hardware for the price. I have one and love it. Dual LAN NICs that support link aggregation was big for me as I move a lot of data around. Besides the reliability I found that I got more hardware for the money with Qnap. It was between Synology and qnap for me. I got the ts420 and it has the 1.6 ghz arm chip and handles what I need. Anything less than that was too slow for me. My$0.02
  19. Thanks Schwat. Will try tonight. Have encountered another problem. It BF4 is trying to install the expansion pack and seems to download it but never updates the game. Just hangs at the screen saying updating with 24,492 MB of 25,525MB. It is the China rising expansion. The repair function is not available in the submenu
  20. Incredible work bud! Love the tiered aluminum like steps inviting your eyes to look in at the mobo!!
  21. how did you do the little tube at the top of the res? I have the same res setup in the exact same way and I'm having issues with the water going back up because I don't have that tube. Please take a picture of how you have it setup when you have some time. I would love to see it. Thanks!
