Oh no - I guess he'll never know
But so far it has been brilliant - mounting it on the telescopic TV arms has proved to be a life saver, would have been a real pain if I couldn't easily access the rear.Tron themed wall build.

It looks absolutely amazing, glad to see that it's handling Prison Architect well (and your pretty optimal cell design, although I'm judging you on the width of your hallways 
).
I really like the use of the crossport rad's, it's been a bit of a pain-point for me trying to figure out how to get both tubes to the same end cleanly!

Crazy looking build... is it not a bit noisey with it not being in a case?
Surprisingly quiet - I have a lot of excess cooling potential, so can run the fans fairly low.
Small update - I have mounted the tron disc on the PSU and it looks rubbish - it sits way too high and just looks wrong. I think I can swap the PSU onto the back of the board without having to take everything apart, so if that works, I'll be able to sit the disc flush and it should look much better. The old fire tablet that runs the monitoring software appears to have given up the ghost, so this is a good chance to replace that too.

As promised @TrojanWhore
The build is at 95% - last piece is the light disc which I'll print up and wire this week. Also need to wire in the power button. Frustratingly, I'm using a Dark Hero Viii (Asus) and I have absolutely no control over the aRGB. It is looking more and more likely that the onboard controller is fried (it won't accept any drivers, and the Asus software doesn't even recognise it's own motherboard). I've tried all the different software options - but it looks like unless I can get the onboard driver working it'll be stuck in rainbow
Still - it's up and nearly done - I almost like the ghetto setting, but that will be converted into a proper room at some point in the future! I need to do some "artistic shots", but you get the idea. The dashboard on the tablet took a little effort, but I'm pretty happy with it.
