I've been budgeting and planning three of my friends rigs for the past six months while they amass the money to pay for them. This is the second tower to be pushed most near to completion. Only thing that will be swapped is the power supply, for a Silverstone Strider Gold.

Don't judge my cable management! Whats the point of having options if I do the same route every single time I build a rig!

Your wallpaper is epic :) Besides that, it looks very sleek with the almost fully black build

very nice man! but may i ask why are you changing the PSU ?

 

i have a tx 750 and i'm very happy with it but lately i've seen many ppl wanting to change their TX series for some other series or brand...

-Corsair Carbide 500r + TX-750w V2 | Asus P5Q Deluxe + Intel Core2Duo E8400 @ 3.8Ghz + 2x2GB G.Skill DDR2 1066mhz

-Sapphire HD4890 1GB DDR5 (New Edition) + 1x Intel SSD 330 120GB + 2x Seagate Barracuda 500GB SlimSinglePlate (RAID0)

You're gonna need a bigger desk

Just the desk where we built it, probably has since been moved to his room where the better peripherals are.

Because its a non-mod, and Silverstone offers badass cable kits, so I don't have to sleeve his cables and lose 3 days of my life.

I didn't check, but I'm willing to bet its like any other card out there. With the exception of Gigabyte.

I told him he should have gone Gigabyte for better temps, but he liked the EVGA one more. Fine by me, I like both companies.

I agree, I would have gone with the Gigabyte. I hope he is happy regardless :)

Overly content, still setting up all of his goodies though, downloading all of his games and what not.

I've changed mine twice, started with my crude Steve Jobs joke, then moved to a Stargate gif, and now featuring Linus and some sauce.

Not really a fan, much rather buy a Silverstone and a Seasonic first, but local tech store gave it away for $50, so I can't really complain.

I knew, thats why I was okay with this power supply. And I also really like Asetek, so I like the H100i too.
