If I were not so limited on space and if I didn't carry my computer around a lot, I would definitely have gotten a Switch 810. I love the look of that case! Great build though and I'm sure we'd all love to see it completed. Just curious - why didn't you buy Corsair Vengeance RAM with the red heatspreaders?

True. This is definitely a huge case. So much bigger than the mid-tower I used in my other build.

And I bought blue cuz I'm going for a blue and white theme.

I know the motherboard has a bunch of red on it.
But the RAM covers the red slots.
And the two GPUs plus blue slot protectors will take care of the PCI-e slots.

The only other red will be the SATA ports.
For those, I'm open to suggestions on how to cover them up.

Also, at some point, I might decide to theme this after a Gundam. If I do, then I can move the RAM and take off the slot protectors and get the red accents I would need.

Limited on space, carry mine around a lot too. I watercooled mine with a big copper radiator. My computer is going to give me back problems before my labor intensive job does.

Nice to see I'm not the only one that wraps my case in a swaddling of bath towels when I work on it. Keep sweetie clean OP. biggrin.gif

I saw a video on YouTube a while ago where some guy did that.
It's so helpful moving the case around without having the lift it every time.
And it keeps the glass from getting scratched.

I haven't use it yet. I'm on a laptop until I get this build done.
But I typed random stuff for like 20 mins.
It feels great.

And the brushed aluminum...
