What's your dream build?

I could upload some more pics, of the bottom area with my kit in it if you want? Could also measure some stuff I suppose, or at least post the sizes from the specs so you can get an idea of space? Its not tidy down there though, its where I keep all the excess cable slack lol.

That would be amazing. If you have the time i would be EXTREMELY grateful if you do - thanks a bunch!
 
Don't really care about CPUs and GPUs considering how my Q9550 and GTX460 eats through games but several TB of SSD storage, now THAT would make me jizzzz in my pants.
 
Surely by dream build suggests possibility of having things that aren't possible but semi realistically - SR-1 mobo, dual xeons, 24gb ram, quad sli GTX 580s, as many of the biggest SSD's I could fit in the case, asus sound card and all watercooled, 6 monitor setup. All topped off with some nice nas boxes for storage in a different room.

Unrealistically would be awesome to get some dual sandybridge cpu's running.
 
Tell you what, let's go ****ing mental here... Here's my dream build :)

After that would come a 'Spec me some badass watercooling' thread - I'd have a loop for the CPUs and mobo, with a seperate loop for the GPUs - wouldn't know where to start popping that stuff into the list there so I'll just leave that to the imagination of those who are 'in the know', what would you think, £350 on top of that for watercooling?

i dont need anything more than whats in my sig,

if i was going all out mental then it would be in a Little Devil case with three quad rads
maybe the new aquaero controller

probably an sr2 with another x5680 to go with my current one.
and another 6gb of elpida C7 Dominator GT

then maybe another 30"

and a couple of hundred to spend on bitspower ;)

If anyone minds about me posting them here, I will change them to links rather than IMG tags, just let me know.

This thread is making me start to think about upgrading to an I7 to enable me to OC properly due to only using 2 slots for RAM while still keeping 8gb, and to get off this Nforce chipset :(

Bit shaky today for some reason, so a couple of the photos aren't as clear as they should be lol. Also, a cathode has fallen down and im too lazy to glue it back up atm so :P
The PSU is a Tagan Piperock BZ 1300w, I think it measures 150 x 85 x 175 mm but you can get the full data sheet on the Tagan site.
The rad down there is a PA 120.3 The pumps are some Laing DDC ones, with EK 150 res's.
Using 7/16 tubing and all but 3 of the modular plugs on the PSU, so a lot of cabling there. 6 cathodes, 5 LED things and 7 fans not including the little extra ones around the CPU area and on the HDD back plane etc as they don't affect cabling.

I included a shot of the 3.5 bay which normally has the front panel stuffs in it, but you can take it out and replace it with either a 3.5" drive or as I have done, put a bracket in there and stick in an SSD.

thanks for that...
i will have to look into the placing of all my watercooling stuff.

@ Rjkoneill, where are your pumps, reservoirs etc?
I too have a huge mess at the bottom of my case which i really need to sort out!
