Hey guys,

I'm in the process of building a themed build for a friend, its a gaming build that needs to not be too huge, and will be moved to WC in a few months. Theme is red/black, let me know what you guys think.

Don't need anything expect the tower, and also have a Samsung 830 SSD that will be used, along with a NAS so don't need.

So thinking to start with this for now, then move everything too a WC set up, the case seems like it has decent support for a 360 in the roof and a 240 in the front so that should work well.

Well I think it's worth saving the money and getting that bundle with the SuperFlower 750W unit
 
Thanks for the feedback, thinking to go with the below, 540 looks like it should house a custom loop really nice and the window is pretty awesome.

Then in 2 months time we will get a full loop including, 360+240 rad, for the GPU and CPU. PSU is also big enough just incase he ever wants a 2nd 290.

Let me know what you guys think.
