Hi everyone!

I am posting my build log on a new build. My last rig was built in 2013. I built this rig as a working professional in real estate/ architectural photography and as a pc enthusiast. I've been lurking on this site for a few months and have really absorbed a ton of info that lead me to this build. I've usually selected parts that I can best afford and don't have to replace for 3 years or so. I'm a man of few words, so let's get to it.

Previous build: http://pcpartpicker.com/b/QTRBD3

I had to cut a little off the bottom radiator edge to fit it in the case. I didnt place the pass through holes in the correct place and so the fittings were touching the back of the radiator and so the radiator wouldnt mount properly without the cut. I used a dremel and it fits great now.

Man that hurts, but glad to see it worked out well. Helps me make some decisions on where to go with mine. Im going to use a bigger 560, so I'll need to remember this.
