I bent some metal sheets to a U shape and drilled some holes in it.

I very much like your rig, the colours really stand out!

 

PS: it doesn't really make much difference but it's just a general rule of thumb to install a dual channel kit in the slots furthest from the cpu, unless the manual calls for it otherwise. In your case it doesn't, i know this because we have the same motherboard ;)

Is vibration a problem?

 

Unfortunately yes it is.. but it is not that bad, because i have got a WD 2TB green in there and my os is running of the ssd at the back.

 

Tubes are covering that nice illumined corsair logo

I can not install it the other way around if i want to keep the radiator "outside" the case if you understand what i mean.
