It actually looks okay to me. I think it'd be nice if you pushed the red on the cables coming out of the psu.

[ANIMAL_ORIGIN]

Nice one man!

[Morpheus]

how come the tubes off the h100i go over the cpu socket instead of over the memory and up to the radiator? can't you just turn the radiator around or would that not work? sorry this isn't the topic of discussion :P

I think it looks better that way since it doesn't have to go over the ram modules.... I actually tried doing it the way you told me but it didn't look as good as this ;D

More red. Make the cables coming out of the psu more red.

I don't think that it's going to work out that good, I'd rather cut an aluminium sheet off an old side panel and paint it black to cover the psu area.. 

[whatthe_fuzz]

i would sleeve those cables then change the green LED on the GPU :p

 

other than that it look sick :D

It's ultimately up to you but umm... Some red paint can do wonders.

epic build mate, really dig your hardware, are you going to be getting a higher res monitor anytime soon, with that system spec a 2560x1440p monitor would go so well with it, plus it makes games look live nothing you've ever seen before, i love my 1440p monitor, games i play run great on it with my 670 i have running 1241/6500. that 780 would destroy anything u threw at it at that res if my card can handle it, just a highly recommended upgrade path for your next plan mate.

[YeroJero]

Aw man, I love the 350D. Such a qtpie when you see it next to its big brother.

 

Nice build and definitely needs a higher res screen for that beast card. I recommend a Shimian or a Catleap.

[NinjaStyle013]

Looks bueno, would give your monitor a clean, covered in fingerprints

Looks nice! Good choice with the H100i. I would not recommend a H110 in a 350D. It can be positioned in only one way, and it prevents using a rear fan. Just giving a heads up.

[TheProfosist]

Y no H110?

[CJPowell27]

The mobo heatsinks are annoying me more than they should be lol

wrong you can put it the other way I did, just dont plan on using those 5.25 bays for anything but a fan controller on something lag length.

Roughly how does ur 670 do on 1440p gaming? Like say bf3 or Arkham city and Crysis 3 for instance?

Really? How did you do that? The tubing would not fit for me.

[BiggestFan]

_{Very Nice man, good job :D}

[Nicolas]

[BigD1970]

[dOug]

[d33g33]

I really like the 350D and this is another good one, well done.

Yes, actually i am looking into another monitor but where i live it's pretty hard to get a reasonable priced monitor where i live. And i am looking into a cheap LG ips display that i plan on getting 3 of

In terms of your systems specifications you have a fantastic system that will serve you well for many years. I like the colour scheme you having going in the build and the overall slick and clean look to the build. However, there is one object in this build that does ruin the entire build and it is a disappoint to see it in a build of this quality. CHANGE THAT GRAPHICS CARD! The stock design might be slightly better for cooling and temperatures in this case however it does ruin the looks and is that worth it for what could be a few degrees on the temperatures? I don't think so!

 

Overall I like the build but again with that graphics card!

Well, whats done is done... After i finnished this build Asus comes comes out with the GTX 780 direct CUII which i wanted at the time of building but i guess my luck isn't the best thing ever... I am actually looking into modding the led's in the card to be red if i get around to it ;p

Yeee, I should have didd that before i took the pictures XD

 

Y no H110?

I don't know, i just don't like how it looks, mounting mechanism isn't the best and no corsair link to change the LED's.... There isn't even much of a difference between the H110 and the H100i.  

 

The mobo heatsinks are annoying me more than they should be lol

Looking into getting one of these ;D  http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-DDR3-1333-Gryphon-Armor/dp/B00CXIN8TC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376976580&sr=8-1&keywords=gryphon+armor+kit
