Green is for the Money, Gold is for the Honeys

post #1 of 26
Thread Starter 
The idea/theme was a joke at first, but then I realized the Archbishop Don Magic Juan would be proud



The PC is already built, but I'll be adding 2 470's with EK waterblocks to the loop.
















My EK WB is gold plated



So I painted my 470 backplates gold metalic to keep with the theme.



Not a perfect match, but I rather have it similar than nickel (the original color) so the theme stays intact.





I'll be using an XSPC RX360 rad instead of the HW Labs 240mm









I'm just waiting on one more package and I should have everything installed by tomorrow night.

Not a sticker and I'm not spending $3-4 per black sata cable last time I checked.

It's just 3 red ones and there is even a red sata port so it's like I'm adding to the color of the mobo

Great looking rig. I, too, did not even notice the sata cables and it looks like the Stewie thing is just a cutout you placed there. It wasnt in the earlier pics.

Either way, awesome rig
