Wow - that's a handsome looking rig. (thumbs up) What kind of case is that? And where did you get the green LED lighting?
 


Uhh....why is your CPU heatsink mounted backwards? that fan seems like it's facing the wrong opposite direction.

Here is what I am working with :) spilled some coffee about six months ago and lost the video card and a stick of memory! Could really use a new video card haha

 


Its not a build contest, they just want to see what you have so far. But I agree, those with the lesser builds should be more qualified. Also, the people that are just going to sell it should be disqualified.
 


I used to have that case for my old PC! It was my baby until I started having issues with cooling so I needed to upgrade 🙁 Also the cable management was awful in there xD
 
how do you get the cable to glow blue
 


He's using white cables with a blue uv lamp so it will look like it's glowing.
 

I actually think that build looks nice and clean. I see no issues with it.
