Hi all,

 

Had this case for a couple of years, just recently borrowed a friends 50d to document my upgrade of the graphic cards and the power supply (the AX1200 was too noisy) 

 

its my first post, but I have been browsing the linus forms for a while now, and been watching and enjoying his videos for a long time!

 

oh and shout out from Dubai!!

only thing that lets the "stealth" look of the direct cuII design is the holes in the shroud, THEY SERVE NOR PURPOSE i literally do not know why asus decided to put holes in the shroud ¬.¬

I'm sure you know this as you had SLI 670s, but in the picture at the bottom there isn't an SLI bridge connected. Just wanted to point that out in case you were having issues.

With today's technology I often wonder why we don't have colonies on the moon or Mars. Then I go to Wal Mart for 5 minutes and realize the vast majority of the human populace isn't ready for such things.

The new cards have a color swap option. They come with gold and red options. I believe those holes are for mounting those color stips, don't quote me on that though

Really impressive for such a simple looking rig. I love the lighting.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.
