If I were you I would get 2x 256GB SSDs instead of a 512 one.

meh, it's ok. you need Titan Zs in SLI for any decent experience. 3/10

 

in all seriousness though, the only thing I can really dock you for is the 750D, it looks so generic and boring. 8/10 on the build, because the aesthetic isn't my cup of tea

I hates you.... I wish I had that pc :P

 

Awesome looking though.

 

Edit: agreed with the earlier poster, the 750D is plain looking so 8.5/10

And the fact only 1/10 really have budget and need for Titan Z's LOL'd.

how did you manage to bring it down THAT low? from what i know it is hard enough to pull the 2000rpm one down to below 1000..

It's the 4-pin PWM versions. And I don't know who said that, it's not a problem at all. The packages states they have a range from 750-3000RPM, but On my board with the Fan expert 3 I can actually undervolt them to around 300 RPM on 10% voltage.

 

The Fan graph follows:

pretty nice looking rig, the hardware looks kinda lost inside that huge 750D though, but that's just my opinion. I like things cramped and compact when it comes to PCs :)

That might be true, but eventually it will help when I in future should put another GPU in there with some more HDD's :P

And you can't bug it for not having enough airflow room!

Thanks man, I've watched too many LTT videos not to not do it propperly in the first place.

 

You'd be amazed how many people can't be bothered, I really like to see it.

You have a nice fast gaming PC there, good choice of SSD too. :) I hope you enjoy the PC!

Cheers man, I sure do. Went from a 2 year old Z77 platform, so this is incredible newer and better!

9/10

litel cable clutter at the PSU and the Corsair logo on the CPU cooler is not horizontal (my OCD is ticking), the ssd could be turned so the logo were showing but then its up side down thank Samsung for a first build great.

Very stealth looking build, there is a good link between colors.

 

And Hej from one Dane to another ;-)
