I love the build but why Huayra? If you're talking about the car the case is the least Huarya cas ever. Just a thought

The name doesn't really fit the build. Other than that, it looks good. Nice color scheme (needs more carbon IMO)

Nice build there. I like the dual colour of that Vengeance Pro ram. And this is the first time I'm seeing a build with this case and non corsair fans. It's refreshing. :)

 

Is it just the camera or those led strips are too bright?

Thanks for all the replies guys! But Pagani got the name Huayra from an ancient South American god named Aymara Huayra Tata known as the 'Father of Wind'.  And seeing as it's built in and AIR 540 and has air penetrater fans... wind... air... no? long stretch? haha oh well, but yes I love the car too so yeah. I did want to add more carbon wrap to the side of the radiator and the tops of the I/O connectors of the mobo, but I didn't want to over do it.

 

Atrash, in the photos I have the hue controller set for mostly white LEDs... slightly blue, but in some photos I have my phone's flash on and with that it is just a phone camera. I almost bought the SP fans from corsair but you're right ALOT of people use those, and the two colored ram modules is one of my favorite parts of the build! :lol:

Clean build decent runs. Not a fan of the case color scheme or name. (all personal preference of course.)

 

Good job with sleeving if you did it yourself.

 

7/10

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

I haven't had any issues with it, runs a heavily modded Fallout 3/NV very well. Far cry 3 and Crysis 2/3 look amazing and run smooth as well! Haven't played/tested much else yet!

Errrmmm, i think you've covered the holes on the hard drives. I would probably fix that unless you want data loss

Thanks for concern, but I know what you mean and I didn't cover any holes up.
