Nice, the outputs/inputs on that radiator look interesting, do you need to cap the holes?

I bought some plugs just in case

(more pictures coming

)

I have decided on an x79 setup

AsRock X79 Extreme9

If someone knows approximately how much the EVGA motherboards will cost in Australia, that would be great.

Chose the i7 3820 with AsRock X79 Extreme9.

I will upgrade to an Ivy Bridge-E chip later on

Overclocking the i7 3820 to 4.75ghz which is max. Overclocking the RAM and tightening the timings, overclocking the graphics cards, hopefully to 1Ghz each

Especially since it comes with the GameBlaster and USB3.0

 

[Edgeyforsure]

the ram reminds me of them plant pots with faces on, and the grass hair that grows really tall

but its a sweet looking build so far

DDC bay res will be the LOUDEST thing in that rig.... Very bad choice :/

Also please remove that USB 3 thing from the back, dear god that looks aweful inside.
