Also Ordered a new Modem/Router combo - $429

New Sennheisser Audio Hub - $175

New EPOS PC38X Open ear headset. -$150 - I've never had open ear headset before so its been interesting getting use to these.

New Steel series gaming mat - $40

New Cablemods braided wires - $60 + $20

New APC UPS - $200

 

Unfortunately not all the parts came in at once so there was a few missing pieces when I took this picture.

You might notice the non braided 24 pin motherboard wire the system wouldn't power up with the one supplied with the kit so I'll have to contact cablemod for a remedy.

I ordered a new GPU bracket to prop up the sagging GPU. I got a ASUS ROG to keep with the theme, that will be here in a few days.

Now I need to order a lighting kit of some kind. I'm soliciting ideas if anyone got any. It just looks like its missing something.

 

 

 

 

 

This is the computer its replacing

i7-7700k overclocked to 5.2ghz for a year or 2 then later dropped to 4.9ghz.

Ram overlocked to 3600mhz.

GPU overlocked to... I can't remember honestly.

Its very nice, would the aio not fit behind the rear side panel fans?, be nice if that was not seen and then just 6 fans creaing light inside, but regardless... good stuff

Agreed.

I tried the AIO at the top, but the fans interfered with the CPU braided cables. I thought about trying the back wall but it looked like it was going to pop out to much. Then I tried the front with the fans in the pull configuration. I didn't like the look so then I settled with the AIO in the front with the fans pushing through. Still not my favorite look so I was thinking I could try painting the AIO white, tape off the fins and the hoses only painting the four sides of the radiator. Could be cool.
