60GB SSD ? why?
what case, op? ive been picturing exactly that case config in my head for some time now. id like to know the dimensions.
Picture isn't accurate anymore. I've removed the top exhaust fan and replaced it with a nice magnetic 140mm filter so now it acts as a neutral vent.
I'm going to be modding this thing when I finish my uni exams. I've got 3 new fans to add.
>>51242714
Funky little case you got bro
>>51242857
Assuming since it's an 830 i'm thinking he bought it before the prices fell on SSDs
>>51242901
I love how clean your build is, only thing i'd change is custom sleeved wires esp for the GPUs. Makes me wanna toss my water cooled rig in the garbage and build something like yours.
>>51242714
this is so ugly
stop posting
On the way I've got a EVGA gtx 980ti and a soundblaster card.
What kind of performance improvements will I realistically see if I overclock this? Not really hurting for power, but it sounds like something fun to do.
>>51242946
Man, I love clean right angles in custom loops. It makes it looks like there was thought and effort put into the build.
Does it make an impact on the flow rate though?
>>51243003
Nah, the D5 pump can handle any normal build. I did put a ton of thought on how to make my runs, only 2 runs are not right angles in the build. Really thing I can do about them to be honest. I do have to go in and adjust some lengths to get my runs perfectly straight and I plan to turn the GPU to CPU angle into an inside 90. Just gotta stop being lazy and get to work
>>51242714
What is this case?
>>51242970
Why bother with a sound card?
>>51242857

Thanks anon, means a lot. :3
Funny that, I had actually gotten fancy PCIE cables along with combs, but ended up using the ancient cables that I've had since my previous PSU.
I guess old preferences die hard, I really do enjoy the look of a bare minimal blacked out cable.
>>51243657
>no gpu
>Still shit tier cable management
2/10 because the case iself looks nice i guess
Here's a question: why do we stand towers up?
This is mainly because I'm noticing video cards sagging
>>51243203
Enjoy your meme friend, hope this better sound does good avoiding interferences in your case :^)
>>51243767
The Case is Zalman Z1 it was cheap around 27€
the red cables gona be replaced soon with akasa slims 15 and 30 cm ones(any shop has them on stock mus order them - to lazy)
yeah and the graphic card will be in the future
when i have more money
>>51243726
Just do black sleeved cables, maybe with one in the middle being yellow if you wanted to rice it up a little
Why does nobody have a soundcard?
>>51243797
Maybe because they take less space? I mean horizontally.
>>51242946
Love that build, are u thinking to get sleeved cables?
>>51244065
Because you dont need it.
If your on board is that shit (which it rarely is these days) you get an external DAC/AMP.
>>51244075 Yeah tru i fell for the meme though lol
>>51244073
Yup, got all the stuff to sleeve it right here. Just gonna fix a few runs then tackle sleeving
>>51244075
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i'm not gonna say you dont need it, id so most people wouldn't need it. Once you get to a studio level of speaker I think you would notice it
>>51244096
Nice10/10
how much did u pay for the waterloop?
and fpor the sleevestuff?
>>51244106
I´ve got the dt990 pro and noticed a difference(soundblaster z) but i think it was just the amp which that made the difference
pls r8
>>51244134
To be honest I don't even wanna add it all up. I gotta be over 1k easy but I do have enough spare parts to build another loop. Even have another 360 rad just sitting here.
>>51244142
If i where you id look into an odac or something with a real headphone amp. I didn't think i'd notice a big change but even on my shitty HD555s I noticed a huge difference over my Realtek 1150 onboard audio,
>>51244075
>external DAC
Enjoy your 100ms audio latency.
>>51244183
Sheesh id realy like to get a custom loop too but i think im too stupid...
Ok what would u recommend?
>>51243657
I have the same case and I know you can do a much better job with cables. Fix your shit, no excuses.
>>51244213
First loop? Do CPU only, use EK stuff, soft tubing is fine but expect to wanna change it to hard tubing at some point because it looks better.
I'd start with a 360 rad, D5 pump, EK CPU block and cheap soft tubing fittings. Try and use good static pressure fans, I use noise blocker PWM fans, run them all off my mobo header with the profile set to silent. Under normal gaming even in summer they dont spin up from the 700RPM idle. Loudest thing in my case is the WD blue hard drive I use for storage. My OS and Games are on SSDs.
You guys like my dog?
>>51242940
Upgrade the gpu first, the 670 is starting to become sub-par. Get a uses 770 or 780 if you don't want to spend much.
>>51242940
What case is that?
Well, this is my shitty shit.
yeye
Not very tidy, but nowhere to hide the cables either, unless I make custom length ones.
>>51244262
ok and what do u think how much it would cost?
and what can i expect from, the cooling i have a corsair h110i gtx atm will the custom cool much better?
>>51244152
You should eat those and trip report
>>51244240

Is an i7 even necessary for something like audio production? Do DAWs use more than one core?
It needs a bit of work, build it on Tuesday.

>>51247502
Braided cables/extensions usually look nice. LED fans look out of place unless all of your fans are LED. (not really aesthetics related, but I'd flip the floor fan to intake, if it's filtered. It's probably not doing much as an exhaust. Probably the top fan too. But experiment with it and go with what gives you the best temps.)
Its mostly just little things. The colored gskill ram is kinda gimmicky, trying to hide the molex power connectors up in the top right corner. Stuff like that.
I'm just an anon on the Internet though, so don't take my opinions too seriously.
>>51247608

So again, what's wrong with the angles?

>>51242901
These fans make it look so comfy... what case is it?
>>51242901
I don't see why your cpu cooler is rotated that way. The air moving from the front of the case to the back would flow through the fins if it were rotated 90 degrees. Hot air from the cpu is also being pushed onto the graphics card... That back fan might as well not be there with this setup. Ditch the top fan and rotate that cooler
>>51242901
>>51251954
I forgot you said you removed the fan in the process of writing my comment, but still rotate that heatsink

>all this water cooling memery
When did water cooling go from being a cooling option for people massively overclocking their cpus to a fashion competent used by stock cpu speeds because "it just looks so cool omg..."
>>51255783
thank anon
>>51255814
I don't want my GPUs to run at 90°C, I don't want them to sound like a hairdryer and I want to overclocked them. Who cares about the CPU, that's a block and 2 more fittings, the GPUs are way more important since they use way more energy.
>>51255856
they were talking about memory not GPUs, having waterblocks on the GPU and CPU is a good idea but cooling memory is the dumbest shit ever
>>51255884
Very few people actually cool RAM/chip set/mobo, most people stick with the CPU + GPU(s).
>>51255910

This particular downdraft is designed to be in that orientation. It won't fit any other way, nor should it.
It's meant for the right to overhang the RAM, as is the left heatpipe bend meant to overhang the motherboard's VRM heatsink. Despite how it might look, air flow is not impeded.
Thanks for the concern though. :3
>>51255017
Nice! Replace that white fan with a black one when you can, it looks out of place considering all of the color coordination effort.
