Thanks

Those ebay ones look nice, did think about going for something like that until I found that Phanteks made a res/pump that would go with the set. If you don't want to use it with the pump you can have just as a stand alone Res but perfect for me for the combo.

(Not exactly the same one, mine is for the GTX1080TI Aorus but that looks to have been removed from their site).

That is awesome!  Thanks for the links!  I will have to keep them in mind for my next build!

That is a great color combination! Nicely done!

 

Yeah, right now I am limited by the Asus Aura software.  The current version is buggy as hell and doesn't work properly with my motherboard, so I reinstalled windows and just left the rainbow for now.  I am hoping that they will get it fixed with the next version of the software.  

 

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the rainbow colors.  

Here's currently the issues thread for the Aura software...  

AURA 1.05.28 & 1.05.32.02 [Report all issues in this thread]

 

I'll probably go with a red theme, for obvious reasons.  

Do you have some more pics of your build?

You can install the Trident Software to set colours and then remove it as it writes it to the ram

This seriously one of the best mods I've seen, amazing! (Lobster's mod also nice)

 

One question: I see the front panel is black, but when I look at official pictures of the PC-O11WGX case it's always silver, but I can't find any extra letters or anything distinguishing the different models. Any ideas?

Thanks, 

The front panel is a gunmetal gray brushed aluminum. It is hard to pick up the color with a camera, if the light hits it right, you'll see the color better. 

The front panel has a ASUS ROG design that I think is meant to look like circuit traces on a PCB.
