Davey123 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hi, i'm trying to build a cool looking pc in my room. I sold cosmos II because of the gigantic size and bought Corsair 350D, at the same time, I upgraded my system from sandy to haswell. Here's the picture: http://i42.tinypic.com/iptt0p.jpg http://i40.tinypic.com/313mam8.jpg\ This is the cleanest pc I ever assembled. My spec: Intel i7 4770k @4.2Ghz Asus Z87 Gryphon motherboard Corsair Dominator Platinum @2400mhz Corsair H100 Liquid Cooling Corsair 350D Case Corsair AX850 Modular PSU Corsair Force GS 240gb Seagate 500gb HD and Hitachi 2TB HD Lite-on DVD Burner Drive How can I make my pc look AWESOME and BADASS? On other note, this is a pic of my PC that I built back in 2010 with Antec Three Hundred LOL http://i55.tinypic.com/dlrngg.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelodiavolo Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I would say, if you can, Buy solid Sata Data cables that are all the same color. Either Black, silver, or Brown\gold, to match your Mobo and components. Also, are you able to put these cables through the rubber grommet directly behind them and then route it to the top from behind the case tray? I think that and maybe clean up the H100 cables around the Mobo. Great build BTW. I have this case ready for my Haswell build once they come in stock.

Polanski Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Yeah NICE! got almost the same parts lying around for a build! but want to swap the fans, I opened a thread with questions.. could you guys look into that aswell? thx http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=119209 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODedAssault Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Get bitfenix sleeved sata cables for the drives and order a sleeved kit for your PSU off corsair site. Run the h100 fans off a 5.25" fan controller (I like scythe controllers) to get all that mess around your CPU block out of there. Zip ties zip ties, o and did I mention zip ties. Get as much wiring hidden as you can. PS I think Asus usually recommends you put 2 stick of ram in slots 2and 4 not 1 and 3 but check your manual to make sure.

Are you talking about this scythe controller? http://www.amazon.com/Scythe-KM05-BK-Master-Controller-Panel/dp/B00727Z7DY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370488533&sr=8-1&keywords=scythe+controller Yeah, I put the memory incorrectly. I'm gonna move it once I get my light upgrade kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdr529 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I had the same idea http://i.imgur.com/fI4xIskl.jpg I just have a little more vidya :D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey123 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 I just have a little more vidya :D: Little more? I don't even have a video card to begin with. That's Asus Xonar Essence STX. Finally my light bar kit upgrade arrived. http://i42.tinypic.com/2py2mhl.jpg I'm gonna get scythe fan controller first before getting bitfenix sleeved sata cable and Corsair PSU sleeve cables. Those cables are expensive and I'm gonna wait for my next paycheck to get those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdr529 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Yeah, i was all ready to get the cables until i saw the price. What lightbar did you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What lightbar did you get? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181037 If you're planning to get it, look on youtube for the correct installation. The instruction manual that comes with it is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so this is my build 2.0. http://i39.tinypic.com/fuels.jpg Where would be a good place to put temperature detector for the fan controller?
