Did some overclocking on the 7950. Temps are around 75c when stressed and the stock cooler makes it sound like a leaf blower. Need to get it underwater soon...

Not really anything that interesting today as all I did was put my hardware into the case :p

Look what TNT brought me!

A few extras that were included with the case

Mystery bag

This is where a photo of the case would go, if I had remembered to take one...

Nice and simple HDD mounting. Simply slots into place :)

This is one of the only issues I had with the case but it's still an extremely annoying one. Since the plastic above the PCI slots is directly in line with the hold-down screws, you have to remove the entire back panel and pull back the metal mounting plate to get the screws in... A PITA, to say the least.

Apologies for the lack of updates, I've been really busy with tying up loose ends with coursework. Only a few weeks left of college and then I can get the watercooling side of things done! :)

Absolutely amazing build, love the fact that you just got 3 of those LG's when I am almost done saving up for 1 :(

Looking awesome. I thought the mainboard is mounted on the bottom of the case and the window is on top, so that you can see in it when it stands on the floor, in the first place. But then I realized mainboard and window are mounted on the sides. Looks epic anyways.

Thanks a lot everyone! Most of my watercooling bits arrived this week, I'm just waiting for EK to hurry up and send out some more 7950 backplates since all UK distributors are out of stock.

 

Really nice Build but, 3-Monitors and a 7950? why didn't you go with a 7990,7970.690,Titan?

 

I don't really game on the 3 monitors, only not very demanding ones such as Minecraft.

 

Also, I'm 16, a Titan isn't exactly something I can afford :p I may get a second 7950 at some point in the future, although I expect next gen cards will be out by then.
