New PC Build

[=ETS= GeneralClev]

Just thought I would post some pictures of my latest PC build

Spec:

Corsair 600TM Case
Intel i7 - 2600K 3.4Ghz OC'd to 4.3
ASUS P8Z77-V PRO
Corsair H100 Watercooling
Corsair Vengeance 16Gb
2 x Mushkin Chronos 120Gb SSD Raid 0
1 x Segate 500Gb 7200 Hard Drive
ASUS HD 6950 DirectCU II - Link OC'd to HD6970 Spec
Corsair AX850 PSU

All the parts apart from the PSU


Motherboard and Watercooling set up


If you are clever you will notice the fans are not on the radiator. This is because Corsair designed the Corsair 600TM Case without the H100 in mind so the fans don't fit!!! Great! So I had to put the fans on the top of the case. Thankfully the fans fit underneath the top mesh so cannot be seen



PSU turned up!!! WHOOOO HOOOO All installed and GFX card installed


Another picture just for fun!

Very nice mate
I'll look forward to seeing your ATTO, 3DMark and PCMark results

Yeah was going to do them last night but realised the time was 1am so will be looking at them tonight.

Should be getting 900Mb+ read with those drives, it is extremely fast!!

BTW how much space between the rad and fans?
As you can use some rubber grommets to seal it up. See the below picture, black rubber squares in the foreground..

The rad is screwed to the bottom of the top of the case (if that makes sense) then the fans directly on the top. The space between is the metal carcase so only a small gap.

Have used the default gromets that come with the H100 which seems OK. Checked the temp in the BIOS before i shut down last night and it was on 27'C after about 2 hours of usage which is pretty good. The real test will be gaming tonight!!

Yeah I know what you mean, it's the same on the CM 690 II.
Sounds good mate
