    New build but still away!

    I sold my house in Jan and have been at a temporary place ever since. I have no extra rooms to run my cruncher so I am on stand by until we get into our new place. But until then I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a new build. Id like to know what you guys think and if you have any suggestions for me.

    Corsair C70 in olive drab
    Asus Maximus VII
    I7 4790k oced to 4.5
    H100i
    EVGA GTX 980 FTW
    EVGA SuperNOVA 1000G2
    Samsung 850 Pro 256GB
    2 WD Red 3TB NAS Hard Drive
    Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 2x8GB DDR3 2400MHz

    Future plans are swiftech h240x and maybe another gtx 980 ftw and custom sleeved power wires.

    Looks terrible. Ship it to me, I'll "rebuild" it, then ship it back. After, you know, extensive testing...

    Wish my case looked that nice. Maybe add in one more gpu?? When I repaired my main, I went with the EVGA SuperNOVA 1300G2. Totally happy with it. (Got a great deal and was cheaper than than the 1000G2)

    Very nice!! I like a push/pull configuration on a radiator when possible... not sure if you have clearance for more fans. I think this case has bottom intake fan positions, I'd pop a couple 140mm fans down there to bring in cool air.

    I'd be nice if you could get that 980 crunching Einstein soon... we need all the help we can get!

    I can't wait to get out of this small place so I can have all my pc's running at 100%. I have to keep the pc in our bedroom for now and with Louisiana hot weather there is no way in hell I can start running projects!

    But anyway I found that I had some built up points on my Amazon card so I ordered a few Noctua fans and did some more wire management and figured id post up a updated picture. I also added another Samsung 850 Pro 256GB. The other one was getting full after GTAV.


    Still planning on sleeving the wires but been busy and need to order all the parts to crimp and everything.
