Thank you for being one of the few to come back and post pictures of your stuff/build log. We here at OCF like our harware p0rn.
Yeah... I had noticed that it seems to happen quite a bit that people ask for advice and then never come back.
I was serious when I said I wanted to "get back into it"... I plan to be here awhile!
I'm planning to do a full build log as I go actually...
I just spent today doing the last little bit of research I needed before I start putting this beast together. I'm hoping that I've got everything I need to do this the right way...
I plan to start out tomorrow morning or maybe even this evening still by prepping the HAF-X... I need to cut the CPU cooler back plate mounting hole a little bigger evidently to account for the 1155 socket... And then I'm sleeving all the switch wires, fan wires, etc.. Should be able to do all but the USB 3.0 wiring then it's on to Removing the stock top fan, and working out a way to run the Top Panel USB 3.0 cables out the back so I can actually use them.
Then fitting the H100...
After that it should be pretty much a downhill battle.
Like I said.. I just hope I anticipated all the possible problems and don't have to wait for more parts in the mail. Mid-Missouri isn't exactly crawling with computer stores with high end or specialty parts.
Glad to see at least somebody is looking forward to it though!
I looked over them once and missed that tiny box sitting in the front. Haha, 1500W is crazy! The only 1500W power supply on newegg is $345.
LOL.. Yeah... I was originally going to go with a much cheaper solution on the PSU, but after researching the buyers guide here and the associated links, I decided this monster was the one I wanted. Shouldn't be outgrowing it anytime soon I'd hope!
