Maybe a black and grey? im not sure.

 

 

Will you have other colors in the rig? It may be easier to match those rather than try to match the sabertooth

Probably black + dark grey + lighter grey may work, similar to that fractal design r4 build from a while back if you remember it?

 

It had like a x79 gigabyte board with a titan or whatever

Hey everyone, cables showed up.  I've still got a bit of cable management to do and I gotta figure out how to run the massive 22 pins of PCI-E cable, then I'll take some more pictures.  Everything I need from performance PC's is still out of stock, I'm getting kinda impatient but I can't buy from anywhere else as I only have enough to order everything in one go.

 

 

 

Sorry for the terrible pictures, I really need a camera.. and a new desk.. and to finish painting.. :( and 5000 other things :(

Yeah, I don't think I can fix it, it weighs a freaking ton since the cooler is massive as hell

It happens with my 290 tri - x as well :(

I just grabbed a piece of ultra thin fishing line, tied it to the gpu cooler and to the top of the case.

You can't see it and it works perfectly.

When I put the waterblock on it it'll help since the block is more rigid than the stock cooler, than it should be fine I think

Oh yeah, that should fix it. My old 780 was absolutely massive and sagged a lot, when I put the wb on, it was completely straight.

The paint on my LCD-2's is peeling off where the earcup attaches to the headband, I sent in an RMA request with Audeze and they approved it, but it's probably going to cost an arm and a leg to ship it to them because I'm going to insure the package seeing as they were $800 and all >.>

 

I feel a bit mad that I'm having issues with a $1000 headphone..

 

I asked them if they can just ship me a new mounting piece so I can just swap it out, hopefully I can do that instead.

 

Also probably going to ikea this week to get a new desk, I'm extremely sick of this piece of poop desk I have now

@Lays you bought a $1000 pair of headphones!? Were you drunk?

It's looking good! Nice update!

I got em on sale for 795, tried em at the store and loved them to death! Totally worth the money IMO. If you ever get a chance to try em do it :)

They do look really nice, how's the sound on them for that price I'd expect them to be perfect in every way. They cost more than my studio monitors.

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it
