Thought I would do a a kind of log/ showoff as a intro post.

Not pictured is a Coolermaster 212 Evo and 2x4GB Hyper X ram.

 

Everthing went in a Fractal Define Mini that I added a window to.

The drives soon made there Way to the 5.25 bay. 

After that the 390 got the plast-dip treatment and I decided to push the 4690k a bit. I picked up a Corsair H100i V2 and sqeuezed it in the front of the case. Got the clock dialed in to 4.5 at 1.2V sitting around 58 degrees in Aida64 and 40 running Witcher 3 at Ultra. Also all case fans were upgraded to Fractal Venturis and Noctua NF-F12s on the radiator.

And onto yesterday I decided to ditch the side panel window and go full acrylic side panel. Picked up a piece of acrylic and trim to size and tinted it with 5% automotive film. 

 

And here"s how it looks today.

Awesome! Love the color theme (I personally really like blue themes in pcs idk why)! Your LEDs even cancelled out the red on the mobo. 

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Made a few changes to my build today. 

 

Sleeved the PCI-E cables with some paracord. Plan on doing the cpu 8 pin next. Removed the 5.25 bay and moved the drives to the top of the case. Plast-dipped the Corsair plate on the rad. Also made a support for the 390.
