yep another build for me

Last week, I sold my Bloody Angel

I did him an really great offer
and in a month, i will not have a gaming pc anymore
i need to build a new one
but i want it simple but VERY clean, will use it for my business
im just not sure about witch case i will use

theme will be white (for sure), lime green and just a touch of black
and use Carnage as theme but instead of red, I will turn him green
im just not sure about witch case i will use

no more than $300 - $350
for sure white is best, but im open to other colors
and need at least, 1 x 360 + 1 x 240 rad space
need a large windows on side panel
not able to paint it, my workshop and tools will be available in mid spring

Hardware i have or stop my choice
Intel I7 4970K
Asus Z97 Sabertooth Mark S (the white one)
16GB (4 x 4) Avexir Core Sabranco special edition
2 x Gigabyte R9-290 WF3
Seasonic 1050w Platinum Silent Snow
1 x SSD Vertex 4 256GB for windows
2 x SSD Agility 3 240GB for Games
13 x Gelid wings 12 Green
parcord white, lime green and black for sleeving

my choice at Begenning was

- another Hex Gear R40 white with lime green accent pack, my wife love the idea of twin computer with Icy Blue Angel II (me too)
but its out of my budget, and need to buy an Asus Gryphon, what do you think about twin computer?

2- Phantek Enthoo Primo white, a perfect match for the theme
but its a very large case, want it smaller and the windows on phantek case are just garbadge and to small

3- Fractal Design Define R5 white windows, i really like the minimalist look, i think the lime green will pop a lot
but the space behind the MB tray is limited and its out of stock everywhere

4- Corsair 780t, White and Black, love the large windows, like the design, not sure about quality and plastic finish

5- Corsair air540 white and black, same things as 780 T, like the compact thing but seem like a Nintendo game cube


and finally stop my choice on Corsair 780T
received Motherboard and ram today, install in case just to be sure it fit :rolleyes: :D

Thanks to all

honestly, Green is not one of my fav color, but when I saw the finished product in my head, I said yes go for green


and the Backplate is fix to the GPU with m3 screws, I just made the drawing after and cover the screw

Is it just me, or does anyone else get excited when they see a part in a Snef build that you own too? Like this excited little voice inside you goes "HEY, I have that exact same part!", and for some reason that gives your own build more credibility somehow? :)

Great job Snef! Tube runs look awesome, and thank you for not WCing the RAM, MUCH cleaner this way!!
