Default Long awaited i7 Rig (Finished)

Well, this was my first build and I have been researching the build for a little over a year, started out with an e8500 for the CPU and it grew into an i7, glad I waited. This build consists of:

-CPU: i7 920 d0
-CPU Cooler: Prolimatech Mega Shadow
-Fans on Cooler: 2x Scythe Slipstreams
-Mobo: EVGA 3x SLI rev 1.1
-GPU: 2x GTX 275 1792MB
-Disc Drives: 2x Samsung DVD Burners
-Memory: Corsair Dominator 6GB 1600
-HDD: 3x WD 640Gb Black (Two in Raid 1)
-PSU: Corsair 1000HX
-Case: HAF 932
-Case Fans: 7x Red LED COOLER MASTER R4s
-Keyboard: Logitech G19
-Mousepad: RAZER Goliathus Alpha
-Mouse: Logitech G5
-Monitors: 3x ASUS VH222H and a 19" HP
-OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

Click on the pictures for a bigger view.

Most of packed pieces on muh bed. Also, that was my taping job, not Neweggs.


All the pieces laid out.


POST, it's whats for dinner.


Everything inside case with partial wire management.


Front.


Waiting for longer DVI-D cables to come in.


Booted up and ready to use.


Bed on the left and desk on the right. Maybe I went overboard on the Red lights?


Front view of the desk.


Well, I am definitely pleased with it. Temps on load don't go over 70C and that's with a 4GHz overclock and HT enabled so I am very pleased with the Mega Shadow. I also have a bunch more pictures uploaded if anyone wants to see any other part of the build.

Later plans are to wall mount the HP as it's used mainly for media and temp monitoring. I also have an 8500GT in my previous PC I may use for PhysX. I know it's not the best GPU for it, but I figure it's better than nothing.


Let me know what you guys think of it. Thanks.
