My Rig | 600T | ASRock extreme7 | 7950 | h100i

The only different thing i've done in my rig is due to the fact I only use one of the HDD cages i moved it across into the alternate position and removed the top HDD cage. Helps hide PSU cables and improves airflow WINWIN! (you can see this in my rig pics in the sig link)

The only other thing (which i haven't done because i can't be asked to take my mobo out at the mo) is feeding the front panel connectors behind the motherboard through the back plate hole so that you can hide the wires and just see the connector. But as i said i haven't done this personally as i'm just being lazy :p

Thank you so much for your HHD cage advice! My 7950 was getting up to around 74C so i decided to move them after all this time and it has made it so so so much better i guess i should buy new fans really :L
 
Thats a little expensive could i go for lower power and still run 2 X 7950's? or should i just buy that one?

Personally although your Rig doesn't NEED 760w it's always nice to have that headroom for overclocking etc. I'd get the AX760w if you can. Don't bother with the 760i though unless you think you'll be using the link software

As for my HDD cage advice, you are more than welcome! I found it improved my gpu temps a bit too :) . If you're looking for new fans i def recommend the bitfenix spectre pros. Just note that the 200mm at the front doesn't always fit if you leave the cages there, however if you've got rid of one and moved the other like I have it should't be an issue
 
Hey mate, the rig looks awesome and the cable management is pretty decent.
One question: Do you use the h100i as an intake? If so, do you use a dust filter and where did you place it? Between the rad and the top of the case or elsewhere?
 
Hey,

Nice rig first! =)

So now times on the criticisms =), no fun =) You Promised very beginning what you like change yet .. Apart from the power supply, where the gentlemen before me advise you quite well with the Corsair AX760 (i) .. I would personally advise you of the vertex 4 which is fast but not reliable .. I would rather switch to a Samsung Pro 840 or possibly the way I've done it now for Corsair Neutron GTX .. Which are much more reliable =)

I guess there are there are many other opinions that you will hear of this post might help you so =)

Cheers

Hello mate i use my h100i taking air from inside the case and pushing it out the top the reason i do this is because my fans would not fit underneath due to the motherboard being in the way but, always have it sucking air never pushing air because you will be able to clean with an air line easily sorry for the late reply i hope this helps

Just an idea, i have the same white 600t and i LOVE it but had the same hdd cage problem as you but u dont need them! You see the black box they sit on, if you take it off and cut the inside supports out and cur an arch in the back then you can easly fit 2x 2.5inch hdd's in ( i have my 2 SSDs in for raid) then if you want to use full 3.5" hdd you can get a disc drive bay converter for that so you can take both HDD cages out =D. When i get home next week i will try and post a pic for you mate

sorry it has took me soo long to get back to you with pictures. here are some of my rig, (alot needs finishing but it will be done :) ) I need to sort out my GPU sag and going to get either braided cable extenders or do some braiding myself. then a new MOBO but 1st is my H100i:)













I have 2x 60GB SSD inside of the black box at the bottom behind the 200mm fan. They fit perfectly and nice and hidden. Hope this helps!

Thank you for the pictures your rig looks pretty smart nice way of hiding the drives, what GPU do you have? is that corsair D platinum ram? i ended up removing mine and hidden the xbox connector and cathode box else where to make it look cleaner and i'm becoming happier with it i may ether make an aluminium plaque up to put my SSD on or do the same as you.

GPU is a 7950 Royal King and yup Dom Plat :)
 
To be honest its not looking anywhere as good as i planed! Needs work doing to it, the gpu sag is annoying me but i think thats down to the psu having short cables so it pulling on it, ill be getting all cable extentions so thats going to get sorted. I have an idea how to stop gpu sag but dont have the skill and tools to make the part =[ hiding the hdd makes a big difference! But yours is looking good!
 
Z68 :O my god man, Upgrade, if your not upgrading at least once every 2 months you cant call yourself an enthusiast !!!
I jest ^_^, Nice looking build you got :)
