Switch 810 Build (Blueprint)

[xeks]

Parts should be arriving in the next few days, still haven't decided on CPU cooler (gunna run stock until I can decided on the parts) and also on the GPU, may use my GTX470 or just use integrated.

You might want to check out FrozenCPU.com as well. They're a US (upstate NY iirc) company and have a fairly large selection of watercooling gear.

Yeah, I've been on their site and other sites that sell parts, still doing research on what exactly to get. Thanks

Motherboard, RAM, CPU, PSU, and MX-4 has arrived! Just waiting to get a few more case fans and water cooling system!

Oh yeah, those are PWM-Y connectors for my fans.

Just curious what would people recommend as to how I should mount my power supply? Should I mount it with it's fan sucking air out of my case (upside down) or have it just suck air in through the bottom filter? Thanks!

I'd mount it sucking up through the filter - but it doesn't really matter.

Mount it with the fan so that it's sucking air from your case, it look 100x bether.
It dpesnt make anny diftrent with the temps annyway

Still slowly working on building my rig. I finally got all my fans and I'd like to set it up as shown in my attachment, only question I have is where to route the wires. Seems logical to run it into 1 but I think the top will squish the wires, will that be a problem? Also if I use 2 then I have to run the wires around or have it dangle around. Anyone with experience with this case and setup have any suggestions? Thanks!

Also I'm looking to start streaming games using xsplit and was wondering if there was any specific hardware that I would need? Looking at a Xonar DX 7.1 sound card but I've head the power connector is iffy. Thanks!

You can crush the wires a little. Just don't tug on them too hard! I'm not sure about the xsplit bit.
