New 700D Build

[dazzerd]

As a present to myself before I get married next weekend I decided to do a final (expensive build) before every decision I make has to get signed off by the wench

This consists of:

Corsair 700D
Coolermaster 620w
I7 860
Powercolor 5870 lcs (ek block)
AsRock p55 deluxe
8gb Corsair XMS3
Thermochill pa 120.3
3x Silent Sharkoon (within shroud)
Swfitech mcp655 with ek top
XSPC Delta v3 cpu block
Bitspower X Multi res.
OCZ Vertex 60gb
WD Caviar Green 1tb.
Aerocool Touch 2000 Fan Controller.

The build went quite smoothly as half of the components I already had the only problem in the build was the res. I overestimated the size of the res and without any angled barbs I had to jury rig the res horizontally rather than vertically which I would have preferred.

The only other issue I had was with the poor quality anodizing on the 700d, I found any little slip on the screwdriver just tore the anodize off. Not particularly happy about some of the marks on the roof of the case but not much you can do.

Really nice rig there mate, I think some of those pre braided cables would set it off nicely, especially on the 24 pin atx. I don't have any first hand experience with either of the corsair cases but I was surprised to read about the poor quality of the anodising, you'd expect an expensive case to be a little more resilient.
