Posted December 28, 2016 Hey Gamers/Tech fans. I have been following Linus on youtube since I first starting building PCs and actually learned a great deal of information from Linus's vids on youtube when I was first learning how to build. So I owe a lot of my success and accomplishment to the LinusTech group. Finally decided to post my now 3rd PC that I built on here. Nice to meet everyone. PC Specs: CPU: i7-4790K 4.4ghz stable "OC" CPU Cooler: DeepCool Captain 240 EX Liquid Cooler Memory: 1866 mhz DDR3 HyperX 12 GB GPU: 2 X ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 OC Edition in SLI Motherboard: MSI Z97 Krait Edition Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro Full Tower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 28, 2016 Sexy build. Considering going white/black too for my X299 or Ryzen build next year.

Posted December 28, 2016 Author Thanks But yeah I completely hear you on that lol. It was not easy finding all the white parts. Especially when it came to motherboards. Only because I did not want to steer away from the Z97 chipset being that I already had my i7-4790K and there was literally only one white motherboard I was able to find which was the MSI Krait but still I can't complain. The motherboard is great. It turned out better than I expected. I wanted a little more matte white to be on the motherboard for the build and Krait doesn't really have too much of it but it ended up working out ok.
