Do it NAO!!!!!

2nd post updated

Bear in mind I have been out today so it hasn't taken me all this time, though the wire management's a bitch to do.

Ok sorry, have to sign off for my dinner, will be off for a while when I have to take my GPU out of this rig and put it into the new build, hopefully be logging on tonight with no issues..... :eek:

NdMk2o1o · Dec 30, 2010

So, quick update, she is up and running though I have had to cut it short for tonight and haven't finished it to how I would like.

Got Win 7 installed on the SSD (startup is amazing compared to 2x500gb in raid0) and main chipset/lan/gpu drivers etc, though non of my other proggies.

Also need to throw in my other HDD's and take out this sucky IDE dvd-rw as it's killing my cable managment, other than that got the 760 oc'd straight away to 4ghz straight 200bclk x 20 with mem running at 1600mhz 7.8.7.24 using XMP profile no issues, is prime stable and idling at 35c priming at 75c 100% load looking good so far :toast:

I have had stuff die after a day/DOA doesn't mean anything, its just luck of the draw, the reviews of these are good, I think it will be ok :toast:

NdMk2o1o · Jan 8, 2011

Sooooooooooo quick update tonight, really sorry I have been slow with the log of the build, It has been running since last week, though albeit not how i want, as I have my old IDE dvd drive in here messing up my cable management and only have the SSD in, so I need to take out the ODD and install my mechanical drives and get the wiring how I want it before it is finished, though with starting back to work this week I have been lazy and been using it as is, tomorrow is the 1st chance I will get to finish it as I think it will take me a good 2 hours or so to install the drives and sort the wiring, but promise there will be pics and also some nice screenies :toast:

........... Watch this space

NdMk2o1o · Jan 8, 2011

So here it is, the final pics, this is my first real attempt at cable management and although it doesn't look that bad from the back there was a ton of wires, more than there looks and it took a good few hours of sorting and a lot of cable ties to get a nice look out of them.

Only thing I'm disappointed with is the SSD SATA cable (blue) wasn't long enough to hide so is visible trailing along the back, also the PCI-E cables aren't long enough to go behind the motherboard tray, again these are in plain view, I may look at getting some extensions soon.

Hooked up is my SSD and 2HDD's and you can barely tell

quite pleased with my first cable management attempt, please feel free to comment/suggest.

Thanks for looking :toast:

Edit: TPU hosting isn't working for me :banghead:

Excellent work. Certainly puts my wire management to shame

Whats with the missing (bottom center) mobo screw? (source)

Also I've never seen flat 6+2-pin PCIe cables. Is that some sort of new trend for PSUs?

hahaha well spotted, I couldnt get the stand off in the hole.... (no jokes pls) lol that is the only one thats missing, and thanks for the comment on the cable management, I imagine this to be a perfectionists worst nightmare (cable management) as even as good as it looks its still niggling that it doesn't look cable-less lol OCD :ohwell:

All the cables for this PSU are flat, the seem to flex nicely, just a shame the PCI-E wires are to short to be routed

gumpty · Jan 11, 2011

Looks like I arrived late for Santa's late party. Nice build you have going on there.

Exciting! Nice Case!!!

Not too sure about the colour of the case fans! What made you choose that?

freebie · Jan 14, 2011

Agree with Akumos, but that ram is absolutely gorgeous, and you won't regret the ssd. i'vew just brought two and didn't regret it at all.
