hey guys I'm new to this forum. I just built my first ever PC. I have been modding the case for quite a while from suggestions on YouTube. Let me know what you all think of my PC. Also Is there anything I can do to make it look better?
3d mark 11 score seems a bit low anyone else think so i think the 1090t is slowing it

Specs:
Amd Phenom II 1090t BE @ 4ghz
Galaxy accelero Xtreme plus GTX580 core: 880mhz Memory: 2050mhz 1.23v
Asus Crosshair IV formula
2x 4gb gskill ripjaw 1600mhz
CoolMax CUG-700B full modular psu
Corsair h50
1Tb Western Digital black 7200rpm
Haf x 912 case

I still have alot I want to do to this pc like watercooling the Cpu and Gpu

Interesting combination the red and the green , looks like a rainbow in there, good work. I'd be curious to see a water lop in there so don't stop, keep the project going.

yea for some reason asus decided to have some red led and green led!?!? anyways yea a water cooling loop would be nice not sure what color i should use or maybe 2 diffrent colors in 2 loops?

Red and green? Umm it's not needed in my opinion, I think you should stick with the main predominant color in there which is red. A green and a red loop will make it look like lollipop land in there. In the end it's up to you, but I think sticking to 2 colors per theme ( case color and components color ) is recommended, in my opinion of course.

Yup, I agree with this.

yea I was thinking that as well, like it would be interesting but probably not as good as it may seem on paper!
either way for sure I'm doing red loop. not dye but red tubing, not sure if this is relevant but, doesn't die's make your coolant clog up? ive been hearing it but some people said its fine

Well a lot of people are using it and keep using it, so I think it's fine. To be honest, this is the first time I heard about it clogging up the coolant. In the end, you have the power to decide. Looking forward for them updates ;)
