Looks awesome! Your GPUs seems to be slouching but then again it's triple slot.

Thanks man :)

 

The top GPU is being pushed down because i have a SSD in the lower 3.5" bay with a right angle Sata-data cable slightly pushing down on it. its slightly exaggerated because of the angle of the photo :P

Yeah (Y) I have to say your build looks a lot cleaner than mine, I pretty much gave up with cable management since there was next to no room on the back of the mobo tray and with the PSU being non-modular

I literally had to strap down the unused cables on the bottom to the fan vents since i couldn't tuck them away on the back as the 24 pin already took all of the space up.

Awesome, seriously I care so much about the aesthetics that I buy products by their colour (like, I would get a ROG mobo over a sniper one just because it's red).

Nice build man those white fans are sweet.

Woah that looks pretty cool! Never seen interchangeable color schemes for a PSU before, i wonder if other manufacturers will follow suit...

Looks sweet! Did you have to pay for them in order to get the red and white themed skin? Do you know if they produce any other skins for other psus by Corsair?

They are looking to sell them on there website http://www.corsair.com/us/ i'm not sure there whereabouts or for how much or if there event up yet :(, I have been inquiring about this kit for a long time and every time the release date just keeps getting pushed further and further back.

 

As for other PSU's on the corsair line, i'm honestly not sure, since the 2013 edd of the GS come out they have been talking about putting out color schemes.
