nice looks awesome! Love how you have your SSD's too.

Also what are those corsair fans like for cooling? im thinking about getting one for push/pull on my h60

Those are the 140 performance fans. I got those to replace the Noctua P14 as they shift more air.

Not tried the 120sp's was thinking about 4 to Push/pull on the H100 but not sure If I need to really. The 140's are pretty good I find and certainly pump more air out.

You mean helped cooling the way you have it setup now? I dont have no real problems with cooling at the moment but i was just wondering because they will look great with my current red black theme and just wanted to pull some extra air through the H60.

Thanks for showing me that tho :)

No in the 650d. I took the cages out and stuck in a 140mm fan blowing right in there. really helped temp of GPU and CPU. I liked the SSD layout too from doing it.
 
Hot swap has issues with Force GT boot. I use them for system drive and the HS wont find them. common issue apparently. I took the sata III plate off but I do use the HS for a few of my photography drives so decided to ditch it with SSD's
 
I got them in the UK. I'm really pleased with them. I replaced my noctua P14's I'm thinking of getting the 120's for my H100. Thanks for your comments

Looking good, but when will it be water-cooled since its a poor case for air cooling...

Not sure if I will or not. My temps are fine. 70@ load on the CPU after 5-6hrs and also 70-75 on my GTX 680's pretty much the same as I had in my 650D

What benefit would I get from Watercooling - My cpu is pushed as hard as poss for stability and I don't feel any gain overclocking SLI 680's
 
Thanks - I know what you mean about SLI it fills the gap. The 650d in my posts above was a great case. I really don't think you can make a pigs ear of it. Corsair thought of everything for layout in all their cases. My 650d is above in one of the posts and check out EVOSS and almostgfx they have some really well put together systems in 650d's

yea they look spot on , couldn't you find piping to match your braiding?

i reel fancy a change and making inside a 650d/800d nice like that but ive only got about £200 to spend so dunno if it will be worth it lol.

i use the xspc double bay res with pump in , ill have to have a look around to see what i can do on a small budget.

Funny story to that one. I wanted Black fluid in clear pipes. When I picked my watercooling gear up only 1 bottle of black left so had to go blood red as I found it takes 1.1 ltr to fill my loop :o. I am awaiting stock on the black then I will drain and refill. I have zero patience or time to wait another day or two I wanted to get it up and running. My mind kind of stuck at 5 years old with patience.

You sure they are the corsair cables? I thought they fit into the PSU, didnt realise they was extension cables. I have a AX1200i and use bitfenix braided cables for PCI-E 24Pin & 8pin CPU but they are just extensions and the thickness of the origianl Corsair cables come from the PSU are a nightmare for cable management.
