Blue Shadow (750D) (Done)

[Stefan Becker]

Oh. My. God.

 

The way that you made the light fall only on the cables is effing eyegasmic.

 

Holy shit.

Really clean build. I like the look of those corsair fans, so sexy with the black of the 750D. The MSI mobo looks great and clean with the graphics card completing hte look. Nice cables too, are those sleeved? I'm pretty sure they are

Yep, there sleeved. What do u mean by hte look?

[<boss2939>]

Simple and sexy, wish you did a custom loop but that wouldn't make it so simple

[cnapier39428]

How can you do all of this and have no ssd?

[sribeast21]

Yep, there sleeved. What do u mean by hte look?

i meant the look. Did you sleeve them yourself or did you send them out to get sleeved and How much did this build cost you, seems like an expensive build with the color coordination and the sleeved cables?

Look at the pic of the PSU, they're just extensions

I just had a friend do sleeved extensions. All together monitors and peripherals about $2200, just the PC about $1800

I never really turn off my computer and ive never used an SSD computer so i think having a 5400rpm HDD is fast. lol

That cable braiding is a nice mix. Very nice.

Well  im still getting a GPU backplate (Comes in tomorrow) but instead of some of the other stuff it might just be a custom water cooling loop. Give me your opinion on this, do you think i should upgrade my storage and GPU before i invest in a CPU only water cooling loop or should i buy the water loop and maybe stretch an SSD (500-750GB) and just let my GPU go for another year or two. Theres only one game i cant run at complete max but i can run it at Ultra and DX12 is coming out so i think my GPU is good for a little while longer.

 

 

Oh also im working on a steel mid-plate RIGHT NOW

how'd you get that incredible lighting on just those cables..?

I would look into picking up a corsair link lighting node, They are 30 bucks, I picked one up myself, very very well done 

 

 

idk, luck, but im on my third LED strip there not lasting very long so i went to get a lighting kit and it said they were out of stock. Anybody know where i can get a Corsair Lighting Kit

Hey man I was just wondering when you mounted the RAD at the top the corsair one did you put fans at the top of the RAD too or just the bottom. Like two fans on top rad to fans on bottom or just rad and fans on bottom?

[DeathSentinels]

Call over to corsair over the phone, they do have them in stock, just not within the US, I got mine shipped from china, took no more then a week or so.

Just the bottom, i would perfer pull however its hard to get it in there nor does Corsair include long enough screws to mount it that way. Also my H100i has a stripped screw in the rad so i couldnt use a regular sized screw anyways.

push pull is what he's trying to say I think

Fair enough I guess but look at the performance difference between my ssd and my mechanical drive

The top 4 columns are my ssd and the bottom 4 are the mechanical

Yeah im thinking about putting two 500GB 840 EVO's in RAID 0 and that would get me around 1GB/s

[AMD Lover]

Well I've had this for a while but im just now getting the time to post pics because of school. Oh, the PCI bracket is painted as well just cant see it to well

 

Also i might be keeping this card if i dont get extra money this summer, just look down at the clocks in my signature

[AMD Lover]

Also said i had repainted the heatsyncs to be cleaner and better looking. Heres some pics of that too. For the chipset if you go back to the first page youll see the MSI logo is yellow, well i popped out the plastic and put a piece of milk carton in their and i think it works perfect.

My GTX 770 with the waterblock will get here Thursday!!! My system will not be watercooled for another 2-3 months though

[TheNinjaNextDor]

Subbed! I didn't know you had a build log.

You may want to put the ACX cooler on so you can use the 770 until you get the stuff and can put the block on and get it in the loop.
