Nisupulla Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 My wish is to build a wonderful computer for summer lan events. The theme is white and RGB. I picked up parts from several online retailers. Case directly from the store, all other parts from online. The order went to the week and the parts arrived. I'll add pictures and experiences later.

Nisupulla Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 On Friday I built a new PC in five hours. There were no impossible obstacles, some had to stop thinking about it. Easier than 25 years ago, but still could simplify things. Color coded connectors. It would be good to plug fans in series (less cables). There should be more openings than just one (570x) on the PSU cover. All screws with only one size tool (cross head). Otherwise, yes, great performance from Corsair. I'm satisfied. :) Short video: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nisupulla Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 I wrote an article on "When a console player built a computer" (in finnish). Computers and gaming consoles have approached each other. Building a computer is not an impossible idea, much easier than in the 1990's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nisupulla Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 Hello, What's the solution when I want to bring the black USB cable shown in the picture through the PSU box slot to the motherboard? Is the cable available from the market? The best would have a 90 degree turn, but CableMods it was in the "wrong" direction... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem solved: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N7DU5LC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Now, the 570X own USB cable is hidden and this cable goes to the motherboard.

Corsair Employee Corsair StormShadow Posted July 9, 2018 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 9, 2018 Nicely done! You can also try tugging the 24-pin cable a bit further back so those unruly part passed the combs won't show in the front. (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YangXiaoLong Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Very pretty build! Was worried it'd be close to every-other-rgb-pc-out-there-that-doesn't-even-have-any-special-features but this came out great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee Corsair Rick Posted July 27, 2018 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 27, 2018 Hey Nisupulla, Great looking build! I really like what you did with the lighting underneath. Are they facing the bottom of the case or actually on the bottom of it and wired back into the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nisupulla Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 Thank you for the comment! I have installed 2 pcs of strips back through out and with magnets attached to the bottom of the computer. Next week computer will be taken to the LAN party and the photos will be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nisupulla Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) There are not enough SATA power connectors on the computer. I would have attached another Lighting Node Pro. Now Setup is 2x6+4 Corsair´s Strips and 6 Corsair fans. Commander Pro + Node Pro. There was a big gaming and demoscene event this weekend, with my new computer.
