    The reason I had that GPU is because I liked the look of it. The PNY is the same price without mail in rebate which I know I will forget.
    I want it to be as silent as possible that is why I wanted a good cooler to run it at low rpm. 
    I trust you with everything else. Thank you very much!

    I don't particularly care about it being automatic or manual. My family always had manuals, so I never drove an automatic for any extended period of time.

    Anyway, I quite like Apple's stuff. The MacBook Pro 13 Retina is a great casual device and the iPhone 6S is amazing. In general build quality is superb and both iOS and OSX are well polished OSes IMO.
    My biggest complaint is that stuff is just too expensive. Plain and simple. The products are fine, the price is not.

    Here you go man. I have no idea how that compares to other scores though, as I am unfamiliar with the benchmark

    Thanks. I think:)

    Update time again! This time a quite big one. Or at least there went a LOT of hours into the preparations for this. As well as a LOT of cable. All in all I think I used abou 70-80 meters of cables for this thing! All in all there is a bit over 115 individually sleeved wires in this build!
     

     
    When I make wires for builds where I want a specific length of cables, I always start out by making the end that plugs into the components first. Then I route the cables the way I want them, and figure out what length they circa needs to be, and adds around 5 cm.
     

     
    I actually had to take out the 6 pin that goes into the motherboard and suply's extra power to the graphic cards because I had no room in the PSU for it Oo.
     

     
    Almost too bad as I quite liked how it ran over the graphic cards.
     

     
    But such is life. Testing showed that there was no performance or stability loss by taking this out, and no extra overclock to earn from it (when not running LN2 or other crazy voltmods, which is what I think this power plug is meant for)
     

     
    Closeup of how the pumps are sleeved. It works great, but it was a major pain in the bum to sleeve.
     

     
    Rear side with everything routed how I wanted it. Aquaero is not mounted in this picture, so I had to take that into considderation.
     

     
    With the first few cables finished. As you saw in the previous pictures, I start out by making all the ends in one end, and then route the cables. I then cut the other end so it fits with the PSU, and the length the cables needs to be, crimp it, and put them into the connector.
     

     
    And BOOM! A few hours later, the rest of the cables got connectors on the other ends as well. You have to be careful not to switch some of the wires this way as it is not super easy to see what wire is going where. But I have almost sleeved enough corsair power supply's by now to know the pin layout of the different ones in my sleep.
     

     
    Really like this quad comb. The thing is a beast!
     

     
    From the rear. Do not mind the zip ties, they are only in there to keep the different bunches of wires together for when I put connectors on them, and to keep the wires in the "route" I want them to go.
     

     
    All the wires out of the build for testing with a PSU tester.
     

     
    Proud to say that everything worked the first time around! So no magic smoke in this build!
     

    I also managed to almost completely fill out the PSU with plugs! The only ones available now is the sata/moles plugs which is kinda scary!
    Next up is piping!

    macs are better in every way
    for gaming, productivity, anything
    its because they have special apple RAM, which performs better than windows ram

    I made so many accounts then somehow I stacked them. I don't know how at all. If it was using the same email or what but mine says free year then after that free year and so on about 5 more times so I guess 5 free years!
