Hey guys!

 

Around the end of april '12, I jumped on the 3770k and the Sabertooth Z77. I literally fell in love with both of them. The rest? It doesn't matter. So I picked anything. A couple of day ago I began looking at Linus's video and I realise that my rig is ridiculous/pathetic. I planned to upgrade/change some (lol) parts. I know that my cable management is terribad, and those fans... huhhhhhhhhhhh. If you guys got some tips or ideas it would be amazing :D
In a mind of vengeance, I'll show it to you!

It really isn't that bad! I just hate CM cases  :P.  If you want to make cable management better, route all the front panel connectors, USB, and HD audio under the motherboard.  My only question is why in the world a 1000W PSU?

I start to hate it too... Especially the fans! 2x 200mm, a 140mm, a 230mm... For the PSU, I bought it for 79$ on DirectCanada... I was like Shieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Ahahaha. That's totally overkill and unnecessary.

Yeah... I took the same as my friend and It was an error ahaha. It's getting old! 2010 is far :)

Here's the wallpaper

Very Nice setup man doesn't look like it needs much at all really maybe try water cooling the Cpu with a H100i or equivalent and if you are interested also try a sound card as a suggestion.

I was talking with my friend about the H100i, H105, H110 or a Switftech H320. Sounds great to me, I want to replace that Hyper 212 Plus.

I thought those were dinosaurs.. Turns out it was just deer. Now I'm sad. :(

Awwww man! I'm so sorry :(

You had hope and I fail you...
