yep another build for me

 

Last week, I sold my Bloody Angel

 

I did him an really great offer

and in a month, i will not have a gaming pc anymore

i need to build a new one

but i want it simple but VERY clean, will use it for my business

im just not sure about witch case i will use

 

theme will be white (for sure), lime green and just a touch of black

and use Carnage as theme but instead of red, I will turn him green

im just not sure about witch case i will use

 

no more than $300 - $350

for sure white is best, but im open to other colors

and need at least, 1 x 360 + 1 x 240 rad space

need a large windows on side panel

not able to paint it, my workshop and tools will be available in mid spring

 

Hardware i have or stop my choice

Intel I7 4970K

Asus Z97 Sabertooth Mark S (the white one)

16GB (4 x 4) Avexir Core Sabranco special edition

2 x Gigabyte R9-290 WF3

Seasonic 1050w Platinum Silent Snow

1 x SSD Vertex 4 256GB for windows

2 x SSD Agility 3 240GB for Games

13 x Gelid wings 12 Green

parcord white, lime green and black for sleeving

 

my choice at Begenning was

 

- another Hex Gear R40 white with lime green accent pack, my wife love the idea of twin computer with Icy Blue Angel II (me too)

but its out of my budget, and need to buy an Asus Gryphon, what do you think about twin computer?

 

2- PhAntec Enthoo Primo white, a perfect match for the theme

but its a very large case, want it smaller and the windows on phAntec case are just garbadge and to small

 

3- Fractal Design Define R5 white windows, i really like the minimalist look, i think the lime green will pop a lot

but the space behind the MB tray is limited and its out of stock everywhere

 

4- Corsair 780t, White and Black, love the large windows, like a lot the design, not sure about plastic finish

 

5- Corsair air540 white and black, same things as 780 T, like the compact thing

 

 

and finally stop my choice on Corsair 780T, and im very happy

received Motherboard and ram today, install in case just to be sure it fit :rolleyes: :D
