Build: Snow Storm

hey dude, saw that you wanted to know a decent mid range monitor, google 'ASUS VE278Q' i have one and its brilliant and really doesnt hurt the bank :) but they are some really nice specs excited to see how this turns out :)

 
Thanks for all of the replies.
I have bought the motherboard on Newegg because they had it on sale. After that I will be waiting for the case... :)

Thanks, TheCMStormStryker

Sorry I haven't posted anything in awhile. I am currently on vacation and the Internet connection is anything but excellent. The build might be held up for awhile because I really don't like paying $25 for shipping... C'mon Cooler Master... I would buy it from anywhere that would cost less than that... -____-

Thanks, TheCMStormStryker
 
Update

I got home from vacation and decided to put everything together outside of the case (as recommended by Newegg) and everything works great. I ordered the case from Amazon and am waiting for them to get them in stock. When they become available, I will have it in two days! (I love Prime!)

Can't wait for the next update :)
Best of luck with your rig mate :D
 
I'm back!!!
The case will be here form August 28, to September 6t.. Ugh.... Anyways, I am usnig the rig anyways for gaming (So Far only World of Tanks), and my only issues are if I change screen resolutions I get green dots everywhereuntil I do a complete reboot... :( Hoping that it is a driver issue as I am running Windows 8 (Too cheap to buy 7, Lol) One of my H100 fans is constantly running at full no mater where I have it plugged in, so I am thinking about getting SP 120's as a replacement... Hmmm... Also thinking about getting a Venegance K90 keyboard beacuse all I have is an older Dell keyboard... Please share your thoughts!

Thanks, TheCMStormStryker
 
I decided to order 2 Corsair SP120, Corsair M90, and a Corsair K90. The SP 120 and M90 came in today and I have to say that I love both of them. The SP120s are so quiet I barely heard them turn on. The M90 is also awesome... The feel of it is amazing, and the scroll wheel is perfect...

Here is a pic of things at the moment...



Not bothering with cable management until I get it in the case. ;)

I love that motherboard, really does look smart!

I found with the H100, plugging the fans in to a fan controller rather than the H100 pump means they run a lot slower and quieter, without sacrificing the temps - just remember to turn the fans up if you need to :P
 
Hey Guys,

I ordered the case form newegg and it should be here on Monday!!! Also I won't be on here quite as much as I am usually, as I am statring my freshman year this year.. (Ugh...) Anyways, I will try and take a lot of pics as I am putting it in the case, but I will probably wait until I get enough time to do it all at once. (Time for some AWESOME cable management... Lol)

Thanks, TheCMStormStryker

Ghetto style :D
 
Thanks for all of the replies! I am frustrated at UPS because my case would be here today if they hadn't held it Dallas, TX for 21 Hours... -_- But I think I will just be happy to get it!

Thanks, TheCMStormStryker
 
Built!

Greetings!!! It is all in the case! I had heck installing the motherboard in the case with the H100 attached... lol Still not very good at this... I will work on cable management sometime else. I did the best I could with the time I had. I really needed it back up in the case fairly quickly as to keep something from getting broken when it was ghetto style! :) I changed the front fans from crossflow to where they are blowing in (Extreme case modding!) I plan on getting some white LED lighting to put inside too! Here are some pics!!!








 
Looks good, but don't you think the motherboard looks a bit small in that case?
Other than that, amazing build. I really like it :)
 
Can't seem to edit my last post.
After looking at this for a while, I think the MoBo actually looks pretty good in there :)
