Hey guys! it's been a while since I last posted here, but I've been catching up to some of the latest builds, and man, I gotta say that phill's build is the most impressive I've seen in a long time! Congrats mate!
![]() In my last post I mentioned I was going to update my pics as soon as I got my third GTX580, but instead, I decided to get one of these puppies: ![]() The box was a little banged up by the UPS guy but the goodies inside were in pristine condition thankfully I also got some new red cold cathodes and a couple 200mm LED fans and a 120 LED fan for the H70:![]() ![]() I also moved my H70 from the top of my case to the back of it, to make room for the two 200mm fans, I'm planing to replace it for an H100 pretty soon and move it again to the top of the case as it can fit a 240mm radiator without any problems: ![]() Finally, this is how my rig looks now with the two 25.5" monitors on the sides and the 27" 3D monitor in the middle, eventually I plan to get two more 27" 3D monitors for full surround gaming, but it'll take a while to convince the wife about that investment ![]() ![]() Any comments will be greatly appreciated guys, thank you!

My current build. I'm really still not sure about the cable management feasability in the Armor A90 case. Whatever I try still seems to just not work lol. Forgive the cell phone pictures, I dropped my digital camera.

I'd say those 15k and 10k rpm HDD's would get a fair bit hotter than a standard 7.2k rpm HDD would a wee bit more air to keep em a wee bit cooler also helps extend their life span

Ahhh, yes. Hadn't taken that into account. Still, I don't see the stock fan being an issue in an open air environment like that.
