I bought the individually sleeved pack when I got my new PSU for my new build. Going with white and red. It was like $40 from corsair. I would have paid 50$ just to not have to deal with the pain in the arse of sleeving...they didn't have purple and/or gold though.

Are you going to do individual sleeves on the new PSU or leave it stock?


Yes, but not for a while. Probably at the end of 2014, I'm going to do a major refresh. Switching to Haswell-E (LGA2011-3), DDR4, new Caselabs case, and whatever the front-runner single GPU is at that time. So it'll be a big project with some color coordination and sleeving.

I'm so jelly of that package. How does that processor compare to the 955?

to coyote for following through

About the same I think. The 955 may OC better though.

I was about to go ahead and move my system into the new case but first I need to order an HDD cage. He didn't send the factory ones and that's OK because I would have taken them out anyway for water cooling purposes so moving the HDDs to the 5.25 bays is no problem.

I think I will get this and take that POS fan off.

That will leave me room for my DVD drive and I can mount my two HDDs and one SSD in there. I need another HDD too so it having room for 4 will work out.

I hate putting that many HDDs that close together though because of the power cables.

Any other options?

I say I am and Coyote sent me the stuff to get me started so...

I am going to just put in my H70 for now until I get it figured out exactly what I am going to do with everything. Maybe another month or so.

I know some of you are waiting 2015 Q1 for DDR4 and 8core 130TDP Haswell-Es.. but I can't wait any longer to build my ultimate rig. September can not get here soon enough!

Hope you are enjoying everything. I could send you some "test" fittings to check out and ship back. I have a few black, chrome and white bitspower and EKs.

Yes, disappointing X79 also.. X99 not coming until those unicorn Haswell-E w/ 3.0Ghz DDR4, 8 core / 16 thread god mode chips.

Nah man you have already done more than enough. I think I have it all figured out. Just have to order it.

Yay you're back!

There's no way I could justify doing an IB-E build so soon, but I will continue to live vicariously through you.

What kind of fittings are you looking at, stout? I have 1/2" barbs and hose clamps that you can just have if you're interested. But if you're doing compression I understand. It looks cleaner.

Always heard DDR4 in 2015 so if X99 Carebear Unicorn being the first chipset to use DDR4.. I reserve my thoughts on HW-E for Q1 2015.

I just bought a shite ton of some carbon (black/silver) sleeving and clips, ties, etc. to go back into my rig and get everything nice and neat and do all the stuff i didn't get to when I got it up and running; then I'ma get another 7950 to go crossfire. My single 7950 has a tad bit of trouble when trying to push ultra settings at 1440.

Stout, where was the 140mm mounted? I never noticed if the back fan dock has holes for 140mm. I need to get more exhaust in the rear somehow, and moving from 120 to 140 would be an idea. Even if there aren't holes; I work at an aluminum fabricator/cnc, so I'm not scared to mod it on there.
