I looked Brokmonster RIG look very nice. Only I don't like because more people use Obsidian 900D and Lian Li PC-V3000 is much nicer and more quality PC case, finer build, for class above Obsidian series.
Imagine if I start to talk I don't like these or that... I not like 3/4 RGB RIGs.
But that's personal taste,
His PC is very nice, only to much fittings for my taste but nicer then these new RIGs full of RGB.

I didn't finished mine, I need to redesign loop, one 360mm Black Ice Nemesis GTS go on bottom and need to install ball valve/drain port.
In mean time I need to find to buy ASUS TUF-ROG Universal VGA Holder. ASUS should send to distributors who ask him.
It's not fair to hold GPU like this and other holders are to big. I don't like to distract attention.

I NEED ROG-TUF UNIVERSAL VGA HOLDER!!!!!!!!

Lian Li PC-O11 WXC is one of 3 nicest case available at the moment.
Case is incredible with closed glass panels. This is only beginning I have plan maybe to use hard tubes, but first second radition, drain port and ROG-TUF VGA Holder.

Hello everyone, been a member for a while but been lurking in the background , well i built my rig last February, and have added a few parts since, Recently I added
2 Nvidia GTX 1080 founders edition cards. I did that today, I am upgrading from a single GTX 980, am hoping to see a big difference. So what I have in my Rig, lets start from the beginning. I bought all my parts from Newegg,

MoBo: ASUS Rampage V Extreme/U3.1
Intel I7 5930K 6 Core, should have come here when I built this to ask you all what your thoughts would have been on a CPU for me, I just game so might have done better than this ?
Case: Corsair Obsidian 750D,
PSU: Corsair 860i with Red Sleeved cables from Corsair,
Sandisk 240GB SSD from best buy, its nothing to write home about but way faster than a traditional Mechanical hard drive, I have Windows 10 64Bit on it and some games as well, D3, EQ1,EQ2,WoW, Rise of the Tomb Raider, will be adding a few more eventually. Where I bought 2 Nvidia GTX 1080's I get For Honor And ghost recon Free. I wasn't sure if I should Put Just my Operating system on that and get a different SSd for Storage, Games Etc.. but seems to be handing it fine, if anyone wants to give me some advice on this I am all ears. I want to Get a SamSung M.2 Evo's Not sure which one I should get , I know they get very good Ratings, they have a standard and a pro version, unsure which is better.

32 GBs of Corsair Dominator DDR 4 3200 , I also have 2 fan Coolers over my Ram with red LEDs ,corny? it looks cool or maybe not let me know what you guys think please.

2X Nvidia GTX 1080 $686.49 at BestBuy, they matched Amazons price, I didn't feel like waiting for the TI version and am sure it would carry a much Larger Price tag than that and really don't know how much of a difference it would of made?

This system is Air cooled , I can not wait to Water cool it and ask everyone for there input on it when I take the plunge in to that, still a ways away.

Over this past weekend I tried 2 different ASUS PG348Q's 1 had a build Date of August 2016 and the other Had a build date of December 2016, both had significant BLB ,so I sent them back today, waited over a year to finally take the plunge and buy 1 from Amazon and was Disappointed with the first one so I sent for a replacement and that was the same, For $1,200.00 I Expect a Premium Monitor , I will include 2 pictures of each of them. I don't know what to get now, I want a 34"Ultrawide , the PG348Q's were so Beautiful until you get a dark scene in a game or Movie and you have Lights coming off each Corner.....

Here are some Pictures of my system so far, I took these with an IPhone 5S so hope they look good
62584625856258762588
And this was both my PG348Q's , I took the pictures with no lights on like I have seen other people have done, #1 62589 #2 62590
the pictures got turned somehow can someone please either turn them up right or let me know how please?

Anyways Let me know what you think of my Build so far, its a work in progress, I tried doing a really nice job with the cable management inside and also behind the back panal, I know no one will ever see it but I know its there and I am kind of a perfectionist . thanks for checking it out and if there is anything I could do better please let me know, thanks a lot .

Hello all this is my build:

Pretty Plain stuff...

CPU - 6950X 125@ 35 - 4.375 GHz @ 1.3V
Mobo - Asus Rampage V Edition 10 - 1503 Bios (I have an MSI Godlike Carbon in reserve should the RVE crap out.)
Coolermaster Liquidpro 280
Ram - 64GB (4*16) HyperX DDR4-3000 (hence the 125 Strap)
Boot Drive - 960Pro 1TB NVME
GPU - EVGA 1080TI FE (step up form their 1080 Hybrid)
Phanteks Enthoo Pro M Acrylic Case (modding was done to ft the MOBO)
EVGA G3 1000W PSU
Additional drive - Sandisk Ultra 1TB
Additional drive - Samsung 830 256GB
Additional drive - 3TB HDD

So far that's it. I definitely have had some issues dialing this in and it seems like the XMP knocks my NVME down to Gen 2X4 instead of Gen 3 which is a substantial performance difference. I wonder if I'm the only one that had that issue/noticed it.

Looking for some new year advice from knowledgeable folks on this thread. I recently moved and my NZXT (plastic/steel) case took a beating though everything worked like a charm when unpacked. I've been thinking about upgrading my Rampage V Extreme / U3.1 cpu from installed 5820 to a 6850 and the memory from 32gb 2666 to 32gb of 3000 or 3200 AND move into a more efficient case along the way. I bought this board because it offered opportunities for upgrading later but am not sure if the preceding is best strategy so looking for other perspectives. Second question, whether a faster cpu will call for new cpu cooling and whether it is advised to re install the OS too (currently running W10 64). Thanks for your time and consideration, dlw-Fnc

Yea, i have the same thing; Honestly if i were to go back i wouldnt use the SLI watercool bridge.
1. You have to line up each card exactly. If you dont the o' rings dont make proper contact and so as soon as you turn on the pump... water everywhere.
2. In order to line it up properly, its best to attach all the cards first before putting them in the case. The makes it hard to line up the slots as you now have 2-4 cards that need to be pushed into the pcie slots at the same time, and so have to line up perfectly. But at least you can do the air pressure test outside the case (basically cover one hole with your finger and blow into the other hole as hard as you can. If you hear air, you have a leak.
3. if one of the cards are bad, you have to disassemble the ENTIRE damn thing, (for reasons listed before);

If i were to do it again, i would have just bought low profile compression fittings for a tiny 1-2" acrylic line. This way you only need to take out the selected card by loosening the 2 compression fittings. I also think its looks better since can see the liquid in the tubes.

I might and change it the next time i have to flush the system. Oh and if your currious; the loop is 3.5L to fill 😛
