%50 size, 100% sexy. [Titan Black SLI, x79, ft03]

Hubris

his is not only a gaming machine bit it is also my architectural workstation hence the titans.

The Silverstone FT03 is an interesting case. MATX with the motherboard rotated to take advantage of the stack cooling effect. Its not that easy to build in when you have as many parts as I do. I had to route the 24pin motherboard cable, two pcie power cables, and 6 sata cables all though a cut out that was 1" x 2 " I'll probably do some case modding with this thing to make it a little prettier in the back and I have plans to put a window on the side with the motherboard.

Temps under full load (%100): CPU - 83c max (4.5ghz overclocked i7-4930k 6 core) GPUs - 75-89c (75-78c gaming) (I have 2 80mm noctua fans in the mail that will be intakes in front of the Titans that should help, as currently there is no intake fan on the system.

It's worth noting that I tried to purchase many parts locally.

In the 6th picture from the bottom, why does one card look more green than the other?

Wow that looks pretty awesome, I love how stylistic and sleek it looks. Does the case get dirty easily (smudges, fingerprints etc.)? And another quick questions since there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of breathing space between the two graphics cards, what are the temperatures you get with them? Is the airflow good, even with this restriction?

The case does not show fingerptints at all, I was originally going to build with gloves but I didn't bother in the end because of how anti fingerpint the surface was.  The airflow is fine despite the crowded appearance, this case is basically a vertical wind tunnel, extremely quiet because it uses stack cooling, and the temps are in the mid 80s on the GPUs when running full load

That's nice, didn't think it'd have such good airflow but that's awesome :)

Yeah fans tend to be most effective in smaller areas like this case, its certainly not as good as a big atx case but its very good for the size

I actually had those extensions done before  they are a rich brown and black colour http://i.imgur.com/LxNrsAK.jpg the colour is called rust.  I wanted them to resemble the MINI Cooper High gate package which is a brown with black stripes.   Honestly I think they look great, matching the Noctuas is a plus but I dont really think brown is an ugly colour.   I've always been a little different with my builds, black, red, blue, white and other regular colours just dont interest me as much
