Well... it has been forever since any updates. I had a lot planned for my new pc build, and even took a bunch of pictures for a step by step process of the build. None of that went well, and for a long time I found myself busy with life stuff. I just this weekend got most of the watercooling built into my new rig. It is nowhere near perfect, and needs many tweaks. But here is an update pic of the visible side! Hopefully it doesn't look too bad for my first watercooling setup!

Sooooooo ordered new cables. The Pro series I have now is lovely. But I realized that I want a truly full black build in a sexy grey case. No RGB. very efficient power consumption. The new cables are custom length, black, and have black aluminum enclosed cable combs. The future also sees that this whole system will be fully custom water cooled with black tubing, black fittings, black as much as possible. But only nice, clean, distilled water. No dyes. Clean, simple, efficient is my goal! : D As few wires as possible too, hence my future upgrade to logitech lightspeed wireless mouse and keyboard! Lots of grey and black, no RGB, pure strength and efficiency, very few cables... *flails in excitement*

Oh that simple but beautiful matte black sli bridge cover ;3

So with my amazing girlfriends help (building with a broken hand ftw) the initial build is complete. I will upload more pictures later sometime, unfortunately after much troubleshooting I had to accept one of my RAM modules was dead. Once the new one arrives I will celebrate the completion of the pre-watercooled build with some pictures uploaded, and perhaps I will even add some pictures of my setup to the share your setup thread. I won't post on the rig sharing thread until I have watercooled the beast. And by then I will be running eight RAM modules instead of four :3

Aaaaaand broke my hand yesterday. Might have to hold off the build for a while. My luck is amazing :U

Well, tomorrow I will be receiving thermal paste, a cpu cooler, and a fan hub. Then tuesday I will get the storage device. Then finally, thursday, the operating system will show up. So thursday evening the build will finally begin *flails*

So less than two weeks from now I will finally begin my most anticipated build. Ive done a few others with a friend, but this will be the first build I endure alone. Only the basic build will be done while the watercooling and extra stuff will be later this year after I have saved enough to buy what I need. I made a profile on this forum because of how fantastic LTT is and maybe perhaps so that others could see what I have been working so hard for. Excitement is rising!
