I didn't even know that there was a silver version of the Air 540... Strange...

It feels as though no games ever leave the BETA stage anymore, until about 3 years after it officially releases. - Shd0w2 2014

What a fantastic for the internet to go down, when downloading drivers!

here are a few almost finished screen shots, the finished (and much better quality) shots will be uploaded sometime later today when the system will be moved to my friends house and properly set up with new fans in the front, lighting and a cover for the bottom hard drive plus his next pay day another 780 and braided cables... I really do hate the PCI-E cables that come with this power supply

I gotta agree with you, the PCI-E cables on the RM 750 are dreadful to position correctly they just don't go were you need them to!

And great, the power supply is dead... so much dead stuff from corsair... 650D fan control, two h100is, m40 mouse, sp2500s.... this is getting stupid.

 

That's incredibly unlucky, I've had nothing but good experiences with Corsair  :unsure:

wow, silver looks boss, I never saw one before

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

I know, I was a little worried with his choice (I remember the old brilliant silver cases  <_<) but when I lifted it out the box I completely understood why he wanted it.
