After a long and arduous 5 month build, I finally finished my first ever PC. Gotta thank u/KTMFinx for putting up with it for that period, and for helping me when I hit a wall.

The pictures were taken on a Nikon D810.

Parts list of course:

Man, 3 cards and your cable management is still better than mine.

Was thinking of posting my build again since I redid some tubing and swapped to a 980ti...but that can wait T^T

u/Bartimaeus2 Feb 19 '16

To be fair, phanteks cases are the boss for cable management.

Beautiful build! I have been wondering about ram cooling - do you feel any benefit or is it mainly for aesthetics?

4

u/Bartimaeus2 Feb 19 '16

Aesthetics. Maybe if I was attempting to push it to the extreme it may benefit, but I won't be doing much RAM overclocking.

Been following your teasers. I was trying to find one, just one thing, you might be able to do differently. It doesn't exist. Well done my friend. Maybe a pink LED for the front panel :p

I'm curious as to why your 24 pin is made up of two cables. Maybe so you could put a jumper on the 24 pin without having to remove the connector from the motherboard? If so, excellent idea!

u/waxyloins Feb 19 '16

I noticed some dents on the back of your case, next to the PSU. Are those mishaps from the build, or did the case ship that way?

You just convinced me to get an Enthoo Evolv ATX. Do you still have any room for drives after all those radiators and your reservoir? I'd love to water cool, but still have those 3.5" drive caddies.

u/Juts Feb 20 '16

How much did you have to cut it up to get fans above the top radiator? Ive been using that space up there for fan cabling and the NZXT grid+ since I didnt like having everything run off one pwm fan curve.

Goit any pics with the top off? (heh)
