I bet.

 

They make some pretty cases, but I personally prefer Phanteks. They just don't seem to be as easy to work in.

I deal in shitposts and shitpost accessories.

Is the carbon fiber vinyl preinstalled for the tubes or you install urself. "Carbon fiber tubes 3M Glossy finish"  very misleading haha. I actually taught 3m have such tubes trying to google it.

 

Oh well im doing a build but also following ur build cause its awesome.

Is real carbon fiber, isn't a vinyl. 3M is the type of tube, isn't the brand 3M xD

Exactly. I will cut with dremel and do the finish with sandpaper (the difficult part would be to clean inside the tube).

afaik, they don't bend at all. You need to use angled fittings.

Was very busy, unfortunately i could not update the post. xD

 

Updates: 

*Drill the case for the pass fillport fitting.

*Apply carbon fiber vinyl inside the case.

*Apply carbon fiber vinyl on the psu.

*I decided for the Avexir Raiden Series. 

*Bought the Thermaltake riing RGB Premium.

*Bought the i7 6800k (was using a xeon e5 2683v3).

*Bought all fittings from Barrow (love them, +-50 fittings in total)

*I've done the watercooling circuit.

 

Things to do, missing:

*Bought the SSD (probably the 960evo from Samsung)

*Bought the GPU, probably the 1080 or a 1070 until the 1080ti come out (i sold the 1070).
