my Sabertooth re-boot

[sLaDe@FFTV]

Hi there peeps, new to these forums but thought I would throw up this "re-do" of my current rig, I set this rig up a few months ago after selling my x79 build due to continued problems and frustration, they are a hell of a platform to build off and even though in many ways going to a z77 seemed like a downgrade it has proved a much more stable build.
 
I first built this rig into a Corsair Vengeance C70 mid tower (army green), with a kind of stealthed military kind of theme and 2 7970's, almost everything on the inside of the case was black with a few hints of red (corsair fan bezels, etc) and it served its purpose for being kind of a "in between builds" rig with not much care given to cable management or layout. the update saw the installation of a gtx780 and a H100i
 
anyway, the time came to at least get it looking good as I waited to see what my next build would be, and this was the result..... I used white braiding wherever possible and painted the heat spreaders on the dominator gt's white. looks alright.
 
specs as it stands now, subject to inevitable changes over time as I get bored with my computers real easy

Wow, that's a nice revamp. Has a really clean look to it also.

I felt so sorry for the hardware on the first picture. I'm glad you fixed it up! Looks a lot cleaner now too
