Hey guys, here's my new rig (about 2 weeks old but just got it set up the way i want it. One thing to keep in mind, I have no graphics card =(. Let me know what you think, I put a lot of time in to it. I think my wire management will be satisfactory!

That's all for now, untill I get my GPU. Any remarks, criticism, compliments are welcome!
 


Haha! Are you being cute?
I mean.. what more can I do to them outside of shrink tubing or.. what?
 
I'm anything but cute hehe, I'm the resident Cablemanagement monster 🙂
Posting from phone atm but I'll post a pic of 'acceptable' (to me) cables when I get home in the morning,
(Don't worry lol, it looks fine, I'm just Ocd about visible cables 😛)

Nothing is wrong with the cables... Get yourself a triple slot card and it'll hide the SATA cables and the bottom headers. 2 X triple slot cards and you're golden...

Nice build BTW.
 


Lol Ok, I agree with you, as I am also OCD but in this case I don't know what else I can do.





Honestly I have no idea what a triple slot card is.. you talking about a long graphics card?
 

looks good, all i would do as far as cables are concerned is get a blue or black 24 pin cable extension. what gpu do you plan to get?
 


I think white would look great! I didn't even think of that but I can picture it would look really cool. I was thinking the 7970 but realistically the 7950.

I like this!

Got it! I know they make that in a 7970 but what about a 7950?
Nvm I found one on amazon. $409!!!
 


I don't think that will be a problem, this thing is a beast!
That's why I put it in front of my 42" tv, so you can compare lol
 


OMG....YES! That is 100% perfect! ahh man i'm getting excited! lol
Edit: Just realized the PCB side is bare and is the side you would see when it is in the computer. 🙁

Still in love with your fan mod :)

MOTO BLOOD, WINNING.
 


Very nice ^_^ my brother was wondering about wcing his 6970 DCII but loves the shroud same as you lol. Will be nice to see what you do with em.

btw haven't seen you on BF3 in awhile :3
 
Never played it lol, I'm not a Fps gamer so it looks like someones nicked my name!
Identity theft hehe, as long as he/she doesn't try claiming my builds as their work I'll let it slide,
and I hope your bro likes what I do with them, and it inspires him to go for it :)
**Edit, according to yougamers, I can play BF3 on high visuals though 😛**

My bad, I was mistaking you for someone else on toms (equally crazy) 😛

I need to get some pictures of my setup going but I think I am going to wait till I get my 680 before I reveal myself :3
