Chop and rewire of a 1 mtr LED strip and relocated to the roof and sides illuminates much nicer.

Very nice wraith, Gonna have to put mine up again since I got the cable combs and OC3D windows decal

 

[Wraith]

I'm going to be hiding all the cables proper mod style! But I'm going to hold off until TTL has finished with me, so I'll know the correct connection locations for creating a back plate "ROG Armour style"

 

[YouWhat]

ROGair

I'm not finished the cables yet (I am making some custom cables for this) but here it is as it stands (on the horrid poppy table cloth as I not long installed the fan cable splitters and some extra dust filters for the rear and bottom fans)

As mentioned, I am making custom cables for the PSU at moment and looking for a way to add sleaving to the USB 3 cables, I am also awaiting the resolution of the Front Base longer AAFP (Audio) cable, so there are a few bits left to do on this yet, also possibly going to add some AF140 LED fans to the front of the case, but that might add too much lighting to the inside of the case, so I am undecided on that at the moment.

The 24pin cable is the standard Corsair cable that (I have had a play at lacing on it) comes with the PSU as the back of the motherboard tray is a nightmare with cables at moment as I not had the time or inclination to sit there and sort them all out properly, but it is hidden and out of sight so I am not too bothered about that at moment, and why I also haven't used the Silverstone extentions I got (also with custom cables being done, I won't be using them) so this has lightened Spaghetti Junction a bit more.

All feed back welcomed (it has taken this long to upload the pics as I can not sit infront of it for any long period of time due to problems with back and legs), I haven't named it, although the temp name it goes by is ROGair, as it basically all Asus ROG and Corsair except for the CPU and hard drives.

YouWhat that is a gorgeous looking build, How are you finding the performance of the 760's ?

Thanks Dicehunter, tis my pride n joy, I've told the other hlf not to even touch it

The twins, they are brilliant, the twins haven't dropped a frame or anything, the load indicators very rarely go red, and even then only for couple of seconds but I'm not running 1080 or higher, monitor it being run on is 1680 x 1050 (an old LG W2234S) until I can afford to splash out on a better one.

The performance from the twins, I couldn't ask for better, as the tests and review Tom did shows, in SLi, they are beasts for the price of them.

I really want a hard SLI block for it with glowing ROG symbol on it, but they don't make them unfortunately, I've asked

The PSU fan hardly ever flickers, for first 2 weeks, I wondered if it actually worked till I saw it flicker

I been working on some benchmarking for the system, but not completed it yet as not run them when overclocked, that the next step, it just getting time when I am able to sit here for a while to do them, but here what I got so far to be added to the benchmarking thread when I finished.

[shambles1980]

need to sort out more of the wire managment.
need to get some angled fittings.
need 12.5mm fans for the top rad.

also need more white led's

and generally do a tidy up (threw it together i think yesterday. re using tubing from my last build)
will get some coloured tubing and find a better place for the pump to live.

think il get a couple of those quick release jobbys for the bay res too as i have to leave the tubes a bit long so i can pull it out for filling.

but im happy with the temps.

-=edit=-
forum resized my pics to itty bitty little thumb nails so i uploaded els where.

I think my main problem is i dont give two hoots about the asthetics its all about how fast i can get the heat off the cpu. how fast i can get it out of the water and how quiet i can get the system whilst doing that lol.

 

[Dicehunter]

Not a great shot because my camera sucks ass -

 

[voodoografix]

Looking forward to it

 

[Madmullen]

Just need to get a few more led fans to show it off better

 

[altshep123]

This entire thread is amazing D:

 

[paulstung]

Almost the finished article, I just need a few more fittings and the final fluid, plus a lot of cable management, I just can't wait to play any longer. I just love the Phanteks lights, the best I've ever used.

 

[Dicehunter]

Very nice, I'll be putting up pics of my new rig soon, 780T will be here on Tuesday, Same internals just different housing ^_^

 

[Feronix]

Looking good Paul

Just made myself a new mini-itx PC. Going from AMD Phenom 940 with DDR2 to a nice i7 4790k and 2400 Mhz DDR3.....Still rocking a GTX 560 ti though, waiting to see what the new cards will be like.

That's a nice big upgrade

 

[barnsley]

As soon as I get a decent camera I'll get some nice images ^_^. This will do for now.

I'll get the sticker off at some point but they've used very strong glue for it.
