This looks realyl awesome, great choice of parts for the colour scheme, but I do so hate the fans on the side, they hide everything and ruin the look of the rig and will probably fill it with dust after a few weeks but it's up to you whether you'd rather ruin the aesthetics for the sake of cooling.

Why the 690, and not a Titan?

Thanks mate, wasn't easy trying to get the colour scheme right but i think i got right, im going to try with out fans and with to see if there is much of a difference in temperature, if there is only a marginal gain ill just mod the case window to all clear :)

I was thinking of painting the ssd, but you see it when the case is open so it doesn't really bother me. I did however paint the DVD players black to match the build. Thanks for the suggestions.

H100i was very easy to install,I just used the pre drilled 120mm hole on the top of the case, didn't think it was going to fit in because of the mono but it did. The performance is really good to plus it looks awesome in any scenario.

nice build =D really like that it isnt RED and Black xD and the c70 is always a nice case to build in.

 

might wana rotate the Window 180° so your fanholes sit over the hddcage =D gives You a nice look in to the MB and GPU =D

or 90° so the fansholes sit over the PSU,...

 

You just need to remove the 16 screws around the plexi on the backside and rotate it any way u want =D and put em back..

done it on my fiends build i made in sept.

very nice looking and clean build, and yes you need a full clear side window to finish it off.

 

actually like the contrast with the white rings on the fans, its different and nice too.

got to love Asus components

I was going to try that, but im most likely going to just replace the stock window with a clear acrylic panel depending on the temperature difference, It sort of looks good and looks bad with the fans on the side at the same time :wacko:

Well done. Everything you chose goes really well together! Should be a BotW contender imo.

Thanks mate, it took a long time to choose all the right parts so it would look right, its not easy with so many products on the market.

 

I would love it to be on the BOTW :) it would be awesome

Being that the motherboard is just slightly wider than standard atx, does the ridge in the case cause any trouble? Definitely looks awesome!

Hey guys, sorry for a late reply. The sniper board fits in perfect without any problems which I was really happy about, I did a lot of research about the sniper and the c70 but I couldn't find much so I took a gamble and it paid off with no issues at all. I was thinking of painting the fan rings green to match the rest but it ties in well with rest of the white and I think it breaks up the green a little in a good way. Thanks for the comments guys I'm really happy with the way the build turned out.

Cheers GtxMonster
