Looks pretty decent, cable management could use a little work.

 

I've got the same PSU, kinda wish I got a little bit better one as this one is a little lacking with outputs.. (I've got 1 6-pin output left, two of the other ones are currently being used by my 3 hard drives..)

I would have done it, planning to throw another 8GB kit into my rig. (I've got an i5 4690K)

OP could own the HTC One M7 which is encountering the pink-purple tint. 

 

EDIT: Post above me explains why.

Can you tell us why you got a 960 and a 16 gb kit?

I went with the cheapest solution I could find loacally. Don't have the luxury to buy higher end stuff because I didn't have the time to save up and I needed the computer asap for school.

16 gigs was actually on sale. 8 gigs would have been enough for me but for the price of 150 bucks for the 16 gig kit, I figured why the hell not.

Idk why you went with and i5 and a 16Gb kit

My local store sold the kit cheap so I figured why the hell not.

Your picture are very... pink xD

 

Looks good. That green sticker on the PSU would annoy the hell out of me though. I'd want to remove it or paint the green bits red

Yeah I plan on maybe painting the green to red. But since the side cover covers it up, it doesn't bother me much.

Well I think you did a great job :)

 

Assuming its one of your first builds, just guessing

 

But looks pretty and you made mostly good hardware choices

 

Nice job!

It's actually my first build. I've looked at other people's builds for 4 years including all of linus' build guides. I remember when the Better $1500 Build Guide was just uploaded haha

For people who plan on getting the same case, cable management is a bit difficult with this case. A fully modular psu is recommended for the least cable possible. Other than that, it's a nice case for the price.

Wowwwwwww... You had new impressed until I saw the nostromo... #nostromosux

Just a guy who peaked at building back in the days of the GTX 980. If you see me here, assume i have technical knowledge akin to a committed hobbyist builder back then. If something's changed, you'll need to tell me(nicely plz). I'm probably asking for help with the modern build scene since I have no clue what's going on.

I'm luulllerully in the same boat as you. Doing my first build right now. Only difference is different parts and I'm still building/purchasing.

It does suck. But I has no monies to get the Orbweaver.

 

T.T

If you've watched all of linus' guide, you'll start talking like him while you're building.

 

I did.

 

xD

 

Also is 1.35 volts okay for my 4690K at 4.7GHz? I just got my rma-ed H80i and man the temperature difference is a lot. I idle at 35C and max out at 75C. I wanna go higher until my temps hit 80C but I'm not sure what's the safe limit for the VCore. I've seen most people recommend not more than 1.4v.

Update

After doing some tests, here's the overclock list.

1.270v - 4.4GHz

1.320v - 4.4GHz

1.350v - 4.6GHz

I was at 4.6 and I had some gane crashes. No bsod but game crashes. So I played it safe and pulled it back to 4.5 with 1.32v.
