Your system deserves a high end case. Shame.

I'm not quite sure what a high-end case is other than an expensive Obsidian 800D, but I don't like the looks of it. I'm extremely happy with the looks of the CM 690 Nv. Ed. and the cooling an airflow is great in that case aswell (compared to my HAF922, it performs admirably). My only gripe is the lack af space between the backpanel and the sidepanel, but for that a CoolerMaster UCP 1100 with flat cable probably would have been more suited.

Well I finally managed to get the money for a CPU cooler and a new case so here is my RIG

Before (ewww!)

What do you mean by Classicvin?

classicVin · 12 Jun 2010 at 15:42

The psu is only a Antec Basiq Plus 550W, i was going to spray it black as it comes in a grey colour, and would stand out abit.
I had some carbon fibre effect vinyl lying around and i used a little on it just to cover up some of the grey, was only put on really rougly.

Thanks for the comments, i'll post some propper ones up when i get my 5850

Guitarman0 · 12 Jun 2010 at 15:57

Few updates installed today, another 4gig of memory, 2 x 140mm fans in roof a cpu fan as the coolit died on me and a nice new 5850.

DotA · 12 Jun 2010 at 17:42

Nice build, are the 140mm fans quiet?

crisbduck · 12 Jun 2010 at 17:56

That's lovely MRDBristol. I'd love to have one of Lian Li's X cases. (probably an X500 myself).

DotA · 12 Jun 2010 at 21:20

Can you put a pic up of the internals without the sidepanal on?

BIGBC · 12 Jun 2010 at 22:50

If the pics included in the montage there arent enough, follow the link in his signature for the full build log.

the cpu temps in mine are about 10c hotter than my previous coolermaster stacker 831 and that's with 5 fans in it

very easy to get it tidy though and fairly quiet (but not as quiet as i thought it would be).

Why did you get rid of your stacker 831, if you don't mind me asking

Next time I'm in clevedon I'm stopping by to see that badboy in the flesh!

Beautiful case and very nicely executed. That's exactly how I'd like mine to be when I eventually get a job that pays above minimum wage :rolleyes:
