Very nice build, not a fan of multi-coloured LEDs, if it could be set to a single colour IMO it would look better

The outside of the case is pretty awesome. But I get this impression that by the time he got to the inside, he was like "I'm getting bored of this, I just want to get this up and running". The inside is obviously nice, but it seems like a lot less effort went into it compared to the outside.

Anyway, nice rig.

She's a beauty, shame about the miss match in CPU to GPU but i'm sure you'll find a nice white 1170 or even 1080 once prices drop a bit.

I'm also not sure about those advertising cut outs, a bit cheesy for my liking and i'm pretty sure you may of ruined that cases air flow but everyone to their own i suppose.

Glad you got off those awful consoles and joined us elitists. ^^

Nice rig though. Very nice set of specs also. There is one thing though... This rig is a X99 platform, why are you running dual channel memory and not quad? Just something that I saw when looking at the pics. Not a big deal though as you don't gain a lot anyhow in gaming.
Nice rig once again.

Yes I would have thought that triple SLI is utterly useless these days, since most new AAA games don't even work correctly with two cards never mind three. Modern games engines don't work well with more than one GPU from what I hear.

These water cooled super rigs may look nice but the cost and massive depreciation means that most people do this once and then learn from it and never again - once bitten (by obsoletion and depreciation), twice shy...

Sorry your PC name reminded me of something. A question about the bars that stick out on the corners. Is that so you can lay it down on its legs like a table? Or is is for safety reasons incase it were to tip over? Also nice PC, I like it.

Not sure where X99 came from...this is a Z170 board with a 6700K and 4x4GB DDR4.

This is a single GPU build. There's only GTX 970 in there with a GPU support. The Galax HOF Edition cards are extremely large and heavy, so a GPU support was needed to keep that tank of a card level. Even with the support it still hangs about 1-2 degrees off.

Anyway, nice rig.

As as first time builder, I modded what areas of the case I could without compromising the integrity of the case itself. Not really sure what else (besides the HDD panel) that I could have done to the interior. It's not a case of being bored...it was a cost versus ability situation. You can't mod the motherboard tray, the top (interior) because its covered by the reservoir, the back because it's covered by a fan, and the PSU shroud is not removable. The interior theme was white, so adding color would have gone against that. Not really sure where else you are implying that I should have modded to show more effort. At the time of my build I had not seen another build with the modded HDD panel (with foam and case badges), and only one other builder I have seen has even attempted to cover it at all. There aren't many full-window H440's out there either. I'd say just the right amount of effort went into it for a first build.
