So.... I got my fans in this last week, *annnnd* I got my 1566 back bracket for my Swiftech Apogee GTZ water block... YAY! Not happy with this pic... will need to work on some better pics of this mount... Mounted everything up to see how the cables would fall. Here are the Coolermaster...

I just wanted you to know that you *totally* corrupted me on this post! ;) I have been thinking about this idea... and thinking.... and thinking... and I am going to steal this suggestion and incorporate it! Not exactly as you have it, but it will be as follows: 3 x 2.5" drives: the SSD that...

Dood... we all start somewhere! I was once a noob! And there are always people out there that you learn from that will absolutely amaze you. I've just been addicted to this hobby for years, so I have been stubborn as hell at learning stuff and trying out new ideas! ;) Whatever you do, hold on...

Got one laying around that needs a new home? LOL!!!!!:D

*cough*...RAMBUS....*cough*

The PSU will be sleeved. That is my plan anyway.... the NZXT extensions are simply place holders... :)

Great information and I am quoting it for peeps to emphasize these points! I am actually pondering dedicated fans for the drives, but I had not even thought about replacing them with laptop drives! 7200rpm units are there, and capable of my needed capacities. I dont run TB drives yet, so all of...

Would look something like this: These are using extensions made by NZXT (that I am currently reviewing for Modders-inc), I've simply put these in place to give you an idea of what they would look like. Hope this helps... :) -=CT

No worries about interference, It (if the plan goes as expected) should be coming from that side oval port from underneath the motherboard, exiting that oval hole and attaching to the motherboard. . :)

You just start somewhere.... that is all it takes! Dont have to go all out, and you can use the tools that you have to help decide what modding you want to take on! Alright.... so, storming through my frustration in dealing with the non proper back plate and my CPU socket issues... I needed to...

*RANT* I now remember why every machine up until this point has been an AMD rig. They stick to a socket type! Because I have been out of the mix on the intel side of the equation, I did not realize that the *new* i7 processors are actually across 2 different socket types!!! 1156 and 1366...

Thanks Rob! Yeah, the drives will generate heat, especially that 80GB OEM Raptor that I have. To help combat it, the drives will actually be mounted on short nylon spacers to give them some airflow underneath. If I build the hard drive cover right, there will be a minor air scoop at the front of...

Woot! My new cross flow rad came in today! More in a bit! -=TD

I was chuckling pretty hard over here.... having a pretty serious "WTF??!?! " moment over here! :D LOL!

Hahahaha! You guys are funny! Ok, in case you missed it, here are the graphics and color scheme of the motherboard going into this machine: The rads are blue for a reason... :) -=TD

Heheheeh, yeah. My camera really throws the contrast on pics like that. In person, it is not really that bad. Just a nice, distinct contrast on components. :)

Yeah, it was a PAX special (if you didn't figure it out looking at the code! ) ;)

They aren't! That was a custom bracket that I built. If you look in some of the painting pics you will see it hanging! :)

Ok, so I wanted to see what my space was looking like inside the case *before* I put the top on this thing. Grab the front rad Tech, and let's see how that works! Looking good! That will let me estimate the placement that I need to have for the hard drives. I still have to attach the fans...

Just ordered 4 of the blue R4's this weekend, I'll let you know what I think of them! ;)
