Ram LEDs are at its max brightness. Camera makes it look brighter them they are There's 4 settings. G710+ is great no issue, quiet and comfy

Wow that's some nice cable management! I could never get my computer that nice. =/

Isn't the 4g 680 a little overkill?

I guess multiple monitors would benefit from having 4g. (I hate how you can't edit your posts)

I just love how immaculate everything looks.

The 600T looks like it's a dream to build in.

4GB maybe overkill but the 680 is a beastly card and why not have 4GB. Soon games will be using it and yes I will be running 2 monitors soon.

Cable management wasn't that hard. Thanks to the PSU and the case. I don't have to think twice on where to run the cables. Made the build more fun and smooth.
