I appreciate it. Good cable management is a must for a small rig like this.

hehe...my Cubitek Mini Center case is so small it has no cable management holes at all. Originally I was going to put an acrylic window on the side, but it would be too much of an eyesore...

I remember linus did something like this when he got his titan and everyone complained about the temps, nice build anyways.

Yea this is where I got a lot of inspiration for my build. The temps are't all that bad. The 4670K runs at 70 degrees under full prime load at the same time as the gpu running under full load. Since I can control the gpu temp limit I leave it at 90 degrees.
