Yeah, looks like that to me too.
Have to admit it is nice though.
OP what colours are you painting it? More red?

The only wires that you need to hide better are the PCIe cables, this is the reason I buy only video cards with the PCIe connectors aiming to the front of the case instead to the side of the case
this I think is the better layout for the PCIe connectors

basing your gpu choice purely on the location of the power inlets sounds like a silly idea to me
wires can mostly be hid but the ones that are on show can be made a feature

Now that is a thing of beauty.
Totaly agreed
Are you telling me that you've been able to discern any substantial difference in the performance or overclock-ability of modern day GPU's that's not governed by the cooling? A significant portion of them are based around a reference design, and therefore VERY closely matched component wise. The main difference being the layout and use of a PCB. I certainly have not been able to discern much difference between my last few GPU's, but there again the last card I bought was a GTX 480.
Has much changed?

Amazing, truly, pretty much my dream machine right there. Want to swap..?
A few pictures of the SR-X system on the Cooler Master booth at the recent Multiplay i46 LAN, complete with the new addition, illuminated Intel logo 
While at i46, EVGA called in and brought me their new EVGA SuperNOVA NEX1500 Classified Power Supply which finishes this mod off perfectly and i’ve got to say, i think this is as close to perfection i will ever get.
Yes there were a couple of issues with the original BIOS on the SR-X board which were quickly ironed out but since then i’ve never looked back and its been rock solid ever since.
Simply put, there is absolutely nothing i would change with this system which is probably a first for me.........oh wait, yeah i’d add another couple of 680’s for good measure or swap them out for a couple of 690’s but apart from that, this is as good as it gets for me.
Final Spec and a few pictures with the new PSU...
