    Thanks for the heads up though, if anything goes wrong with mine I only have to spend a few pounds to fix it :)

    Prian got a reaction from TicTac in My Finished Rig   
    So the title says its finished but its never going to be finished. Inspired by a post on the forum, I have decided to stealth my drive. There is a front view of the cast in the original post and this is how it turned out :) im pleased with it

     

     
    Also sorry about the terrible lighting, I didnt want to unplug the system and move it :P

    Hey guys, I completely forgot to take progress pictures of the rig I built during Christmas so I hope its ok for me to show off my finished rig here.
    First of all the specs:
    Case: Bitfenix Shinobi black window.
    CPU: Intel Core i5 3570k
    Cooler: Corsair H60 in push pull with 2 Quiet edition SP 120's
    Mobo: MSI Z77a-g45
    Ram: Corsair Vengance 8gb
    Graphics Card: EVGA GTX 660 FTW
    PSU: Corsair TX650
    Boot Drive: OCZ Octane 128gb (This is from my old rig. Still going strong)
    Storage: 500gb samsung F1 for programs/games I don't put on my SSD, 1tb Samsung F3 for TV shows, 1.5tb external for movies and backup(all drives are from my old rig, need to think of a better storage solution with less drives, and more backup)
    standard optical drive which has never been used, also a quiet AF120 for the front.
     
     
    I have set the CPU cooler up so it pulls in cold air from the outside and exhausts from the bitfenix fan on the top of the case, I didn't have any dust filters for the back so I cut the one at the bottom of the case in half and used the coolers screws to hold it up.
    I had a plan for the cable routing before I started the build, I routed most of the front panel cables behind the motherboard, and a fan splitter too.
    I have mounted the power supple this way round because I think it looks better, and I noticed it never actually turns on, apart from at start up.
    I decided to finish the build off with a NZXT sleeved LED light strip, It lights up the case nicely, and looks great through the smoked window which is growing on me.
     
    Pictures of the rig:

     

     

     





    Thought i would chuck in a quick picture of my setup too
