Case: Zalman Z9 U3
CPU: i7 3770k @ stock 3.5
GPU: GTX 560 superclock (pulled from previous computer)
PSU: Zephyre 720W non-modular (pulled from previous computer)
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Tracer orange/blue
No hard drives in this. Just going with SSD's. Right now i have one Sandisc 120gb, and love it!

First time really doing cable management, and with a non-modular PSU with bookoo amount of cables, it didn't come out as i had hoped.

Nice rig you have there, only 2 things i would change. 1. Get rid of that stock cooler. 2. Braid those cables (Unless you plan on upgrading your psu anytime soon) :p
 
Gonna be upgrading my monitor next for a 120hz 1080p. The one i have now is a 766p 18.5'' piece of junk, really wasting the capability of my pc.

Prolly rolling wiht the intel cooler for about 2 months till my wallet recovers from the monitor, then i'll throw in an nzxt or corsair liquidcooling solution.


Prolly holding on to the GTX 560 till an AMD 8xxx series comes out. I heard it's coming in march, 3 months away, if not i'll just go 7950.
 
I really like this PSU, ugly as sin but almost 2 years and it's been goin without a hitch. Can you customize the cables on a non-modular?
 
Yea you can braid your cables on a non-modular psu quite easy just takes some time and patience. You can pick up a psu braid kit online, I think newegg sells them
 
Cool, i think i'll pick up some blue and orange braiding kit and get to work on the PCIE connectors and 24pin, sounds like a good use of money :D
