[BUILD LOG] NZXT Gunmetal Grey/Dark Red Build (PICS)

Hi guys

This is technically my second full build, since my current one is running on Core 2 Duo and it isnt keeping up with the times. In only a few years the technology has advanced so much.

Aside from performance, I will be going for looks. All cables will be individually sleeved, might make a GPU backplate, not sure how far I will take this

Here is the spec list:

NZXT Phantom 630 Gunmetal Case
Intel 4670k Processor
MSI Z87 G45 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB Red RAM (I think its the 1866Mhz one)
Nvidia GTX 480 GPU (Carried from the previous comp)
Coolermaster GX750 PSU (Carried from the previous comp)
Lots of Hard Drives (Carried from the previous comp)
Single SSD I think a Corsair one (Carried from the previous comp)

I have all of the parts already and I've also got 30m of Shade 19 sleeve and 20m of Colour-X sleeve. Need to wait for the heatshrink to arrive because of a mistake I made earlier lol

Will keep this updated xD

EDIT:

Ok so here are some pictures:

The sleeve looks overly shiny in this picture lol

So thats it for now, until I recieve the new heatshrink. BUT I will be testing out the parts, not in a case later on just to see they arent DOA so stay tuned xD

Similar kit to my build mate

Good luck and hope it goes well

I've seen sleeving done with and without the heat-shrink, and personally I like it without.....(I can't say much though as I've not done this myself)

Keeping an eye on this thread to see how it goes
