Work rig

[DarrenP]

So first off let me state that i only put about an hour and thirty minutes into building this, sorry for the terrible cable management. 

 

The Parts:

Intel Core i5-3570K

Corsair H100I - 2 Stock fans

ASUS P8Z77-V Motherboard

8GB of Corsair Vengeance Black 2x4GB 1600Mhz Memory

Sapphire R9 280X-DualX OC Edition Card 3GB VRAM

Corsair TX850M Power Supply Unit, Overkill i know, It was lying around. 

Cooler Master Storm Stryker White 

Kingston V300 SSDNOW 120GB OS drive. 

 

To be added:

512GB Samsung 840 EVO - Storage Drive

Replace R9 280X with R9 290X. 

 

I think the hardest part about this case, is the way that they routed the cables into the motherboard area, I found it especially difficult to get the Front header's aligned correctly as they were tied up with other cables of the fan controller. I do apologize for terrible picture quality, i do not currently owns camera and was using my iPod Touch 5.

 

This system will be my current workstation that will travel with me to and from work, and throughout school everyday. I plan to exclusively use SSD's because it will be transported so much. I also plan to paint the case black when summer comes. 

 

 

Picture time!

 

 

 

Thanks for taking a look!

Explain "work rig" and "transported so much".

 

Why did you build this? It's hardly a work rig - it's more of a gamer...and portability?

 

Laptop?

Nice rig! cable management actually isn't too bad.  The only recommendation I have it to route the power, reset, etc. under the motherboard.

That is a HUGE case to transport. Wouldn't something like a Prodigy be easier to transport?

I'm 6'5, i can also lift about 100 pounds per arm, "Hardly" is a loose statement in this case.
