Although I am not a fan of horizontal mounted cards that block looks really cool and would actually want to show that face of the block off. Awesome build so far.

Probably some people with tattoos in here but this is the progress of my arm so far the hand was done before the half forearm piece. The upper arm will be done eventually but just takes time, This was done by pomac.truecolors @ Chronic Ink Toronto. Very pleased with it he also did the touch up on the hand piece which was done by Christos Zorbas.

Might aswell that's what I would do, you have designed it well so draining will not be a pain in the ass.

Nothing is shit on it lol wired or wireless gives you the flexibility which again at the price point it should, Nevermind I see why well I think your going to be shit outta luck here unless you go up in price since I think in most cases the D pad is an auxiliary usage only (what I mean by that is its barely used in most modern games) and probably on the back burner design and quality wise on almost all controllers.

The Xbox elite controller is the most solid ass controller I have ever felt in hands, mind you with its MSRP it fucking better be but I was lucky enough to get it off my brother second hand for a fraction of the cost, everything is magnetic on it you can swap thumb sticks and d pads for different ones, and then the trigger custom remaps on the back 4 of them. I bought the wireless receiver so I could have a proper cable free experience. otherwise to be honest I am not sure I would fork the money out. To be honest man I know its a dick move but shop around on amazon and buy a bunch in your price range and just return all the ones you don't like lol.

Same setup I love that controller.

Newegg.com has it too make sure its the model with the Bluetooth so you can use your phone. And just get RGB Y cables for more connection if needed. OCN55 for 5.5% off at performance-pcs.

That board is amazing but the lack of RGB can be a deal breaker for some lol, but for those people like myself there is a workaround Aquacomputer Farbwerk LED Controller USB | Bluetooth Version (53207)

The new chips are the same chips just with STIM, if you have a delided chip with liquid metal and no glue or better yet direct die/waterblock cooling you are already getting better performance than STIM.

You damn right lol that would have bugged the shit outta me too even if the screws are visible and not the same I had to order a box so that all of them matched.

Exactly hell I took it to the extreme and just bought a 1600 watt PSU, it was originally supposed to be a dual 1080ti Poseidon build but the stupid mining craze made that idea get tossed. And now with the 2080ti launch yet again another period of time where its way over MSRP, I can't stand paying over MSRP pro products even intel new 9900k is over guess its a new trend. Do I use anywhere near that in my system?? fuck no lol. But I didn't want to sit there wondering every upgrade for the next 3-4 years saying oh is this too much for my PSU.

What you building here or is that a stock photo off the internet

Just buy a dual case system and build two pcs to get the best of performance in both worlds, since money is no option why sacrifice top performance going one way. A case that is more vertical than width wise would be a good choice.

I got a picture of my old build and I spent all my money on the components lol the case was my motherboard box and stayed like that for an year. I just could not figure out a case that I liked and willing to drop the cash on that deep cool case was on the list, but the Thermaltake Core P7 is something I am thinking of moving to in the future allows for installation of the rads I got and moving back to an open air type build would be nice. But anyways this was my first build had a cooking thermometer in the res for water temps lol and was on an 8ft folding white table with a mod mat super glued to the thing with the pump screwed right into the table.
