Shame about the F3. The case and the braiding both look fantastic though!

Keeping an eye on this, liking the colour scheme so far,

Was contemplating ordering a 650D last night and getting black+vanilla or black+yellow braid from mdpc

So will see how you get on with yours

Are those cables just extensions or did you sleeve your original 24/8 pin cables?

Since it was my first time braiding, I bought extensions just in case, and gave me more room to play with.

Good to know, as this would be my first time braiding, yours looks tidy enough for a first go!

Forget the HDD, I want more pics!

Looks a very good setup, let me know how you get on with the Corsair SSD was looking at getting it, but got put off by some of the problems people had been having with them?

That looks really nice

You should have done a custom loop though with green fluid.

I would have, but then I would have been too tempted to water cool the GPU as well and all that kit is going to sky rocket the price

I don't have any pictures of it powered on yet due to the hard drive, so make do with these for now
