http://linustechtips.com/main/forum/3-build-logs/ There's a TOOOON of awesome stuff in here, entire build log section for the forums, probably the place i spend the most time on!

 

If you want to see some god-tier cabling check out @alpenwasser 's builds. Although pretty much everything in build logs section is great!

Yeah, 780s. Got the first one the second day they came out, and the second one a week before the prices dropped. I was a little annoyed, but oh well.

Looking good. You both have the same case as me :o Weird. 

Really Popular case on these forums, kind of annoying when someone asks for a case and 80% of recommendations are R4 :P It is a solid case though.

I have two Logisys LED bars. They're extremely bright, but some of the LEDs are no longer as bright as they used to be (about 6  on each bar). They still light the case just fine, but they're not even a year old and there's dim LEDs...

 

Check out the BitFenix LED strips

Yes.

It'll allow more air to go towards your GPU.

 

Pro tip: The bottom cage is removable too, it's screwed in from the underside of the case.

Okay thanks. One question. Why would I need to take out the bottom cage?
