Most of the system is finished but still working on the aesthetics. I added some Dominator Platinum Lightbars and a backplate for my soundcard today. Therefore in some pictures you might see light bars wheres you don't on others.

A few pictures of my Xonar Essence STX with custom backplate:

looks like Cold Zero's work actually. Very nice indeed!

Judging by the pictures on their website, they do look very alike indeed and that was our intention :) Having a laser-cutter at your disposal is amazing when it comes to this sort of stuff.
 
No idea where the posts have gone, the quote is still there though. Ah well, it's no biggy :)

Thanks for the positive feedback! Appreciated.
 
Lovely build there :) that backplate is just sooooo nice and the more and more I see builds in the Air 540 the more I think its between this case and the Enthoo pro for my next upgrade. A quick question are those custom PSU cables or extensions?

PS: This guy knows his stuff a Superflower PSU I approve :rolleyes:

These are Bitfenix extention cables. I initially planned on sleeving the PSU cables myself but after seeing the quality of these I figured I'd rather not go into the hassle doing it myself :)

Thanks for the positive feedback, appreciated.
 
Thanks for the info there :) we do have a sleeving Master PEXON here on the forum but what puts me off is I would have to send off my cables as the plug that fits in the PSU is patented by Superflower and my pc would be down :(

That's the one thing I don't like with the Super Flower PSU's. A button to turn the LED off would be nice as well. Other than that, awesome units.

I'd say, take a look at the Bitfenix extentions. They are in available in several colors and cover most, if not all cables in your entire rig. Obviously it's less customizable but I didn't really mind as II just wanted red cables anyway.
 
A button to turn the leds off would be a great idea :)
I will have a look at those extensions as i'll be buying a white case soon as my PSU is white it was £10 cheaper than the black version :cool: Then i'll finish off by putting a waterblock on my graphics card as I have a custom loop :)

Good luck and have fun finishing your build :)

For the people interested, another picture of the rig turned on:

Looks really nice. What have you got on the floor? A blank plate? Light box or a stealth cover for something? Nice work on the soundcard back plate.

That looks like an H110 but with an H100i block and the top design of the H110? :huh:...

Really liking the striking look of your build though mate, really clean! Love the look of the hero and the metallic 980Ti, with the custom H110 block :D
