Lian Li !!!
 
All I have left to do is install my 4x 12in red cold cathodes and paint my front and side grill red. I may also paint my ram heat spreaders red.

i think your ram is a bit overkill for the 1100T, It will take some tinkering to get it to run 2133.

Especially 4x2GB 8GB. those 4 sticks will require the north bridge speed and voltage bumped.
 
If your waiting on BD why not get a cheaper cpu to carry you through, it should hopefully be out within the next 6 weeks.. (fingers crossed)

As for the case, it looks like from the hardware you bought you have (or did have :)) some cash, I would recommend a Lian Li. They are just awesome cases. I have also heard good things about the corsair cases. Choices, choices!!
 
get the asus mars 2 gtx 580 graphics card... that thing rocks, it outperforms the hd 6990 and it's ROG, so the colour scheme stays consistent :)

No 8gb kit avaible yet arround here , 2133 is for the BD setup and crosshair V supports it
 
Thanx for the Suggestions !!

Some stuff arrived today,

Sapphire 6990
EK-FC6990 WB Acetal + Nickel
EK Nickel Backplate
Gelid Compound

Will prepare the card now and take some Pictures.......

Stay Tuned

Mars is a kickass card , but nvidia is not a choice for me :P thanx the stock radeon is also consistent :p
 
beatifull setup m8, yeeeah the ram definitly needs some red paint :P and straight that cables , hehehe

Yea the 750TX has tons of connectors and this mATX case doesn't have many places to hide them. I really just threw it all in the new case and got it running due to we are doing alot of construction at my house and did have time to make it nice and neat. I will break down and do it right when I get time.
 
lets prepare the card.... that card is really 30cm long...... wow
