Good luck with the build. I'll sub and see how this goes. For a fan controller, I'm partial to the Rheosmart 6. It will utilize PWM off your mobo if you want, and is 30w per channel - 6 channels. Plenty of power for all your fans . ....

Case ordered today! I'm excited to be working with a new and seemingly well designed product. I had a few finalists for cases I was considering, but the M8 won out in the end. I'm looking forward to the new build.

Thanks for the thoughts all. It pains me to say it, but I agree with you all . . . just didn't want to admit it. I think I will end up doing the new build anyway and just hold off buying a mobo and proc until bulldozer is released.

subbed - I love theme builds like this, and it looks like this one will turn out great!

I'll be using the CaseLabs M8 in my next build. I was leaning towards the 700d/800d from Corsair, but the M8 inspired the better design ideas in my head. I'm one of those that goes for a mix between performance and bling . . .

@ OP I'm kind of the same mind as you are. UV tends to wash everything out if it isn't UV reactive. I've been looking for a similar result you are but with different colors. @Mongoloid - That looks pretty good. Looks like I'll have...

I dont feel so bad then. My new build is running me $800-ish just for the WC gear. Add in a CaseLabs M8, a 2nd 5870, Corsair 1200w, new mobo, proc, and ram - I'm figuring around 2200-2500 US after shipping to Alaska. (look for a...
