I hid them behind the hard drive bay in a big bundled mess. once i get my hr-05sli and hiper 580w psu i will retake all pictures and post with the extra shineyness that those parts will provide. As far as the name goes check out what my rig used to look like and you will understand.
 
Now here is a case that is worthy of a true 7, very nice well lit good cable management perfect lighting, lookin very good.
 
what you guys see by the way is nothing compared to the wires right this second. i will be prhotographing this before i tear her apart. basically all the wires you do see either vanish or are tucked away best as possible.
 
i gave you a 6 same as you gave me a 6 hardware is good but you need to get some upgrade cooling
 
Yea!!! that's good enough !!!
7/10
 
i need upgraded cooling? Your joking right?



HR-05 SLI and Hiper 580w psu should be here tomorrow. i guess i will have to redo all of the wire management ive done already

I like your monitor. And you have a clean setup. 7/10
 
i received my hr-05sli and hiper 580w psu yesturday. the chipset cooler dropped idle temps from 50 to 36 and load from 54 to 40. i still have lots of wiremanagement to do but pics should be up either today or tomorrow.

to those with the hr-05 sli do you know of any way to fix the looseness in the heatsink?
 
Like the lighting, looks tidy. 7.

I have that exact same case, exact same cooler, exact same lighting setup, and exact same mobo. O.O Wierd.
 
Thats a very nice case and a good job hiding the wiring! I am looking to build my first (on my own) computer in 6 months or so....this gave me some cool ideas!
 
Nice rig, Looks good
Ken, I think some guys are just green with envy

Please revote based on the new pics. This may not be the fastest rig on here but it is not weak.
 
Come on people what do I need to fix?
 
I voted 10/10 because:

Looks great, good cable management and I like the specs. 10/10
 
i voted 9

because i love your case, i wanted one but decided to try out the 900, very easy to manage cable in those cases, plus good airflow, great work on everything, and thank you for your comments on my 900.
