Tuff call, I think keep it the loop white but maybe do some braided cables in red or any other detail to offset the white and match the motherboard?

That's my on going conundrum. I'm going to try white again now I have the 16mm tubing. I wanted white originally but it was lost in my build hence the red.

I think yours looks great with the white to be honest. Why don't you photoshop it see what you think?

Using photoshop may help indeed - I'll have a play and see.

man that's so nice!!! absolutely love it!
quick question: where did you get that thing to attach the reservoir to the fan? (you can send me a trust if you want)

any idea why overclockers don't sell caselabs?

I did ask OCUK over a year ago about stocking them however I think once they've added their costs onto the product they become really high. Altogether and after tax I paid £350ish and it was easy just to go direct.

Hey,

I thought I'd do a few posts as I upgrade to X99 and give the whole case and cooling a good clean with a few other bits thrown in as well.

New bits going in will be:

5930K
Rampage V
32GB Avexir ROG Tesla
950 Pro 256GB
Some new SSD's
Plus other bits and bobs

More to follow:

Looking good mate, that case is beautiful so looking foward to seeing your new direction with it.

I want to buy a SMA8 but it's hard to pull the trigger on a case that I know will cost me around £700

Pgreenwo · 15 Jan 2016 at 21:32

Nice- good to see it evolve. I upgraded to same set up in my build (for now!!)

As it happens I saw this thread & liked the case that much I asked them....

sorry but the sheer number of options and the cost of importing them mean that they are not a viable product for us to resell.

Shame really

I think they are good value from the states - Delivery arrived in 3 days when I got mine. They are expensive but night and day better then others

Outstanding! My kinda style!

ukxenon · 16 Jan 2016 at 16:51

i love the white i think it was the perfect colour

Krowzer · 19 Jan 2016 at 19:52

Well, its taking longer than I wanted but its slowly getting there. Will upload more photos once all the cable management and other bits are sorted - probably the weekend.

Little peak for now...
