I would love your opinion on my little baby. I've just finished the set up by installing my new GPU cooler, which I've been waiting on its' release for about 8-ish months.

This is my length of 'case modding' as well, painting a white 380T since my shop didn't have any black ones in stock. Pics included. 

Also, the original build for this I was blind drunk after a damn good night at the local pub, so don't judge the cable management too much. Don't think I did too bad with it anyways, given the space ;D

 

Edit - Should probably mention why I don't have a custom loop in this, seeing there's two separate loops already. I just generally don't trust myself building a loop. I'd cut corners and be lazy about it. Would rather trust a company like Corsair who have, I guess, already done the job for me

 

I would love to continue adding to it (potential i7 and GTX980) but funds are a thing.

If you have any suggestions, please leave them.

curious as to what temps you are getting before and after the g10

curious as to what temps you are getting before and after the g10

Knew I forgot to include something!

I'm not at home to include screenshots, but base clocks on the 780ti before the HG10 were sitting around 40-50deg idle depending on how hot it is in my room and inside the case. Under max load (30min Furmark 1440p max settings) would sit around 70ish usually, given that real world temps are different.

Base clocks after the HG10 was installed, would sit around 25-30deg under same conditions, and sitting around 50deg under load. Tests done same day, so I hadn't given any time for the thermal paste to set. Still haven't, actually. So could be different in a week, not sure. 

I do know I've got roughly a 15-20% overclock on the GPU at the moment, and temps are still very stable.

Much pleased.

that is awesome to hear, was thinking about getting one of these for my system. not really interested in doing a full custom loop or anything just yet so was thinking about checking one of these out. very glad to hear performance is worth it on these units.
