Black and white Rig

Now you have enough room for a custom loop :D

I don't trust that much water near electronics :p

He could never afford it. The moment the next GPU with a 0.5% performance gain comes along, he has blown his funds on that.

You... are correct XD

Looking nice and tidy in there Dice, nicely done!

Thank you :)

That's why you make sure to get one of those fitting valves to close off the loop at the GPU so he can do a swap and new block. He'll sell it make even as per usual and get a new GPU plus block

Money never stops our lovely Dice lol.

But on a serious note he could just do a CPU loop if he didn't wanna go nuts. But probably not worth it

True XD There are upsides to being single with no kids ^_^
 
im at a point where I enjoy building these PCs more than actually using them.

Think I'm getting the same, Looking at it now I'm thinking of ways to mod and tweak XD

Love the cooling of the 5000D though, The 680X while pretty was horribly designed.

Interesting, as I’m the opposite… Gotten to the point where I just want to enjoy it, rather than having to tweak it in some way.

Wait until you start watercooling and then sit there visualising the build. Before you know it, you are buying tools for a few mods here and there... next then you realised you dropped 5000nok on a 3d printer. :D
 
Little update, White support bracket came in, Red anodised aluminium thumbscrews also arrived, Custom Cablemod cables for the GPU and mobo installed and replaced the Corsair stickers on all the fans with white vinyl, Waiting on a few more finishing touches to arrive.

Personally I just cringe whenever I look at Corsair RGB fans these days... The cable management is just a nightmare to even begin thinking about.

Lian Li has really innovated in this regards and their new AL ones are just miles better than what Corsair has to offer.

With this said, your rig does look really good I must say, well done :)

Appreciated, I will not be buying Corsair fans again though as much as I like the look of the crystal HDRGB ones, The rats nest of cables is ridiculous, LianLi's daisy chain fans have been on the market for long enough for Corsair to come up with something that doesn't require 2 hours of cable management.

Agreed. Even before Lian Li came out with their UniFan series, Corsair had been on the market for several years. The fact that they STILL haven't figured a better solution is just hilarious to be honest.

I don't understand how they could have come up with their cabling in the first place.
 
My feelings on RGB anything are, buy the colour you plan to use and forget about rgb on anything other than RAM/GPU/mobo and be happy :D

It's a decent rig, but personally don't like the tubing wrap on that AIO but it still works in the build :)

It's temporary as I'm awaiting delivery of the white H150i Capellix :)
 
Since you are going for RGB madness try OpenRGB. Corsair has some good products but the iCUE is the king of bloatware.

I shall try that thank you.

Or SignalRGB.

Tried that but it gave me a few issues, I'll keep an eye on it though.

Little update as I've had coffee and I'm bored... :D

Capped off the hole in the replacement PSU end cap shroud thingy with white plastic card cut to size, Took a while for all the measurements, Covered it in white carbon fiber vinyl and glued it in place.

Replaced the stock black thumb screws on the front of the case and little PSU shroud with red anodized thumb screws and also replaced the black corsair stickers with white vinyl.
