The case is extremely clean and subtle looking, don't expect to be blown out of your chair when you see it, you must look at it as a very fine piece of craftsmanship - the kind of piece that you'd find in a Swedish furniture catalog or a high end audio component magazine.

There it is, you blown the cover!

Welcome to my next build! This one has been kind of on the backburner for quite some time, as I've been waiting on the case. This will be a very clean promotional build for a new case from a new case manufacturer, of which I still can't disclose... yet, hence the "censored" area of the sponsor line up above.

I have the case in my possession and will show it as soon as I'm allowed (very soon) via photos and a video overview. The case itself is very clean, well made, and just oozes quality. I look forward to showing it off and doing this build with it.

Leading up to my ability to show the case I will of course, in my typical fashion, be photo-logging all of the other parts to be used in the build. This thing will be a powerhouse!

Main Components:

Motherboard: EVGA X99 Micro

CPU: Intel 5960x

The case is absolutely beautiful, and not only in terms of raw appearance - the fit and finish is very high end. This is not like some sort of dime-a-dozen commercialized case in terms of quality. Imagine case labs quality materials but implemented into a more stylish design.

The case is extremely clean and subtle looking, don't expect to be blown out of your chair when you see it, you must look at it as a very fine piece of craftsmanship - the kind of piece that you'd find in a Swedish furniture catalog or a high end audio component magazine.

I have been waiting for the case for a very long time and my expectations grew and grew, as time went on I started to prepare myself to not be too underwhelmed when the day came for me to have it, but the fact is the wait was worth it and the case delivers for sure. They have crafted fine computer case worthy of being labeled high end.

I like it a lot.

Sounds a lot like a lian li case to me

But they are not a new case manufacturer...they have been making cases for a long time.

I'll venture one more guess: Maingear.

 

Also: Damned if you posted pics of the EK ram modules and I'm sitting here still waiting for some to show up that apparently will be delayed a bit due to EK moving warehouses(?)

Here's the awesome looking EVGA X99 Micro as well as my 5960x!

I've mentioned before that I'm a big fan of EVGA's new boards, as well as their bios' - and this board is no different. Rock solid piece. I've played with it to check the processor and was able to effortlessly overclock it to 4.6 on air using a pretty cheap cooler. Once on water I think this think will have even more legs :)

IDK man, EVGA boards really not looking that nice anymore...

 

It looks as if they tried to give it an industrial look, but ended up making it look cheap

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

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

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

What part of "brand new manufacturer" was confusing?

It's truly a rock solid board, as is the z97 stinger I used in the previous build

I was not aware maingear manufactured anything. Looking further, it appears that they do. TIL.

My bad.

It seriously looks like EVGA just stuck a really complex bottle opener on their motherboard...

Ever tried to eat a GPU without steak sauce? I mean it tastes okay without, but it's just so much better with.

I dunno, my 760 was a'aight medium rare.  Just a little chewy cuz it's older.

 

Can't wait for the case reveal and rest of this build.  Looks AWESOME.

Ever tried to eat a Titan Z without steak sauce? It tastes even better than your average gpu+sauce

It's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature!
