Lian Li PC-05SX Build ( Pain in the A Build )

[dujames777]

I decided to buy a Lian Li PC-05SX case for Christmas; a little something for myself. It was on sale on Newegg for 220$ (220$ still really expensive for a case in my opinion). The end product look damn awesome, but the process of building it, i can only describe as THE MOST PAIN IN THE BUTT Build, of all time; if you forget one thing, you essentially has to dissemble 1/2 of the computer to get to it. Right now the entire thing is on air cool, my Corsair AIO couldn't fit . Im saving up to for a custom loop and a complete sleeved PSU cables set.

Specs:
ASUS Z170I PRO GAMING LGA 1151
HyperX FURY 2 X 8GB DDR4 2400
Intel Core i7-6700
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB
SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 1TB
SAMSUNG 840 EVO 2.5" 250GB
CORSAIR SF Series SF600 600W
LIAN LI PC-O5SX
Cooler Master GeminII M4
Thermaltake Riing 12 RGB LED 120mm x3

Sweet case! I'm looking to do a PC-O6SX build next time (I prefer micro-ATX), but this time around I wasn't able to due to X99 chipset having very little mATX motherboard offerings.

I was going to get PC-06SX too, but after a lot of second guessing, i went with the PC-05SX because it was smaller, and it filled out the case more and i can still get a full custom loop in it.

You should really change those fans from Thermaltacky to a better brand

Looks lovely, nice to finally see a build with an SFX PSU.

Got those fan when thermaltake was the first brand to do the RGB LED ring around the fan. They work alright, the CPU not OC.

Nice rig fella, very sleek although I'd swap out the fan for a Corsair ML.

I think the Riing fans look great. (Emphasis on look)
Nice build!

Idk if that true or not, but the Riing fan came out before Corsair n NZXT release their. Also just google up Jonsbo, they have some awesome looking cases.
