My Antec 1200 just isnt cutting it any more so I've decided to upgrade my case to the obsidian which I will mod... Along with my entire water loop and PSU and I will also braid my PSU. (Long road ahead of me!)
I plan on getting:
- Bitspower Mosfet and NB/SB blocks for my P6T deluxe v2
- Swiftech Apogee XT for my [email protected]
- When GT300 comes out I'm gonna buy either the 360 or 380 but most likely the 380 and then slap a waterblock straight on that baby!
- Upgrade my 850W Galaxy to a Corsair HX850 and braid that with MDPC cable braid
- A quad rad to put in the top of my obsidian and a bitspower mesh radgrill (a great idea that I got from noeru doing it in his obsidian over at Xs)
- Noiseblocker 120mm silent fans (transparent blue blades with a black shroud)
- A Bitspower 250ml res
My build right now:
- [email protected]
- P6T deluxe v2 cross flashed to v1 BIOS 0006
- 6Gb G.Skill Trident @ 1678Mhz@6-7-7-20-1T
- EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 SSC @ 750/2580/1575 (will get gt300 and a waterblock later)
- Crucial 64Gb SSD (might get a 2nd one if they release firmware for trim in RAID)
- WD Black 640Gb
- Enermax Galaxy 850W (changing to a HX850 fully braided)
- Swiftech Apogee GTZ (changing to a Swiftech Apogee XT)
- Laing MCP655 vario (keeping)
- Masterkleer clear 7/16" tubing (changing to PrimoFlex Pro LRT Black Tubing 7/16")
- Thermochill triple 120mm rad (changing to Termochill quad)
- Feser double 120mm rad (keeping)
- Dangerden fatboy 1/2" barbs (keeping)
- EK multioption 100 (changing to Bitspower 250)
My PC right now (I know the cable management is a mess!!):
I have taken the HDD racks out and am STILL waiting for the quad rad grill!
Which means I will have to wait even longer to cut the hole in the top of my case to fit my quad rad
Cable braid arrived with a cool picture from Nils at MDPC
I am going to be doing the 1st layer of my 24 pin and 8 pin with black braid/blue shrink and then the 2nd layer will be blue braid/black shrink for contrast. Hopefully when the cables fan out they will look good alternating black and blue
This is currently how far I am with my 24 pin
And my SATA cable
