Don't see too many H50s these days - wheres the rad ? above that fan in front of the 200mm top fan ? I like the monochrome gray look coming thru in your pics.
Unusual case to see in here, I had to look it up - BIG case ! and that Asus card is juicy, the drive bay blue matches the board's blue ... I like that semi-industrial look of the hoses and wires coming off the H50 ... sorta squid like

You might wanna check out routing your front panel cabling thru the mobo cutout ... there ! there's that cable mgmt repressive streak

oh yah - 8/10 ..... and no, you don't have to go sleeving, I actually like the restrained look of that 24 pin.
Thanks!

Yeah, I love all the super sleek cable management, but for a regular use rig that sits tucked away under my desk 24/7 I try just to make sure the airflow isn't hindered too much.
Yes, the H50 rad is up above that black fan. I have 2 fans on it in a push/pull setup. I would have bought an H100 this year but I didn't quite have the cash, plus I hope to do a custom loop end of next year.
I think the monochrome effect was caused by my white balance being slightly off.

It's not a very expensive camera though, just a $150 Canon IXUS HS 220.
The case is a ThermalTake Armor Revo, I actually got it for free directly from ThermalTake in exchange for giving my opinion on it. The styling is a bit more extravagant than my tastes, but it does the job very well and when it's free I can't complain.

Yes! the 7970 is a monster haha, that was my "upgrade" last week, along with the 32GB of RAM and an extra SSD.
I am doing a Corsair 650D build for a friend in a week or two (parts have been ordered) so I'll post pics of that too when I am done. Also I'll drop this here first. Next year I am going to be starting up a case mod that will be all out so expect my best work yet in that.
