Love the ton of Corsair fans, also the color scheme looks good, almost the same idea as mine, but throw some cold-white LEDs in there, you'll thank me later

Well the loud urritating corsair fans that move litteraly zero air have been trown out of the system and have been replaced with some lovely noiseblocker eLoop. Pics will be up tomorrow ;)

There is some light in the pc, but i dont use it, the r3 has no window :p

And there will allso newer be a windows on my case, im kinda a silent freak, and the r3 aint qiet enough, som i will be dampening the case even more, and will change the feets for spikes.

I'm like if i can make it 1db quieter ill do it :p

May i suggest another case? My Corsair 500r is incredibly silent and has the best airflow i've seen so far, fans set on low with the included fan controller, dual GPUs and stuff, let me know if you want me to give you more details

Please don't change the case! R3 is the best. I would suggest a Fractal original windowed panel, I own one myself and it looks amazing.

No way i'm going to change the case, i love my r3 way to much to do that :P

and no way the 500r is more silent than the r3. most ppl would say that my pc i dead silent, but i hear noice from it, and i dont like that xD

Yup, ill be keeping the cas, and i dont planning on buying the window for it, if i i'll get something its a sidepannel without the fan mesh, and covering it with some serious thick noice dampning matherial(i'm planning on doing that annyway).

I get that too, people often don't even realise my system is running when the monitors are off. I however, can still hear a little whine from the pump (MCP-655) in there...

Also, if you're such a silence freak, then why not go with all NF-F12 fans? You seriously won't get quieter fans than those... And yes, I'm speaking from experience, they are freaking SILENT.

A lot of things has happend since last time. 

New PSU, now a owner of a lovely seasonic platinum 1000w

New GPU, now theres a 980 Strix in the rig.

And theres allso some new lovely NF-F12 fans. Not hating on the eLoops or annything, just wanted to try something diffrent, so then NF-F12's :)

 

Now i really need a new case, the Node is just to small, so now my amp is the top cover of the PC, not ideal at all!!

So now I'm just waiting for the Streacom F12C to be available.

 

Annyway, heres a pic of the system
