GTX480s, I didn't like Nvidia skipping the 380, but, anyways, these are in my game room HTPC, sorry for the cable mess, but the PSU is not modular, and the case doesn't have a window

GTX580s, I have these in my my bedroom, used to have them in my main rig in 3-way SLI:

http://img.techpowerup.org/120405/IMG_4286.jpg

GTX680s, amazing how two of these are much faster than three of the previous gen high end cards, and this is supposed to be the mid end model, can't wait for GK100!

http://img.techpowerup.org/120405/IMG_4307.jpg

Well, I hope you guys liked this, will upgrade my main rig for quad SLI as soon as my Step Up queue is down to 0, thanks for your comments, and keep uploading pics of your systems!

Awesome cooler on that coolant

Is that the normal cooler or is it due to the light?

de.das.dude · Apr 5, 2012, 09:07 PM

@norton i think thats green UV coolant in yellow piping?

khemist · Apr 5, 2012, 09:08 PM

It's yellow masterkleer and mayhems pastel sunset yellow.

I didn't get clear tubing as it ends up cloudy at somepoint down the line.

Thanks! He's usually the first to open any new hardware box (under dad's supervision

) and then he "helps" me install the new parts (after I've made 100% sure all the small parts have been taken care of and nothing is plugged to the wall socket

)

Just sandwhiched the back of the case between the FAN and the rad with the stock bolts. Pretty easy just had to cut some of the bottom out to fit he pluming.

You haven't seen a mini ITX system yet, have you? I swear mine is barely bigger than the 120mm fan on the Shuriken cooler I have on it.

At the time I saw no need for the ROG board, and the blue-ness of the Pro matched what I was going for at the time.

Nothing wrong with that board either....I'm using the Deluxe both daily and in my memory reviews. But that'd complete the rig for sure, having an ROG board, or well , iguess a simialr red/black themed board.
