Stop press, I think I managed to take some reasonable pictures of my rig. Ones that are not too blurred and are kind of OK.

Let me know lol.

Nice pic's chap, very clear

Niklu those bad boys look good in there.

Paul very nice snaps, I think I even, maybe, saw 1-2 cables.

Are the GPUs you and Niklu have almost the same except for the Ti?

Niklu has the Kingpin edition's which were totally redesigned for maximum overclock's with a price of about £740 each.

ENGINEERED TO OVERCLOCK
The ultimate GeForce GTX 780 Ti has arrived. Introducing the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Classified K|NGP|N Edition. This card is the final answer in the search for the greatest overclocking graphics card on the planet.
This card does not hold back, with up to 450W of dedicated GPU power, enhanced PLL circuitry, improved GPU power plane, 10CM fans, included backplate, preinstalled dedicated PWM baseplate, voltage regulation enhancements and more. As you can see, there is a reason why this card is named after the world’s Top Overclocker.
Extreme overclockers Vince “K|NGP|N” Lucido and Illya “TiN” Tsemenko demand the best when it comes to performance and overclocking, so they set out to co-design this product along with EVGA, and geared it for the ultimate overclocker.
“In order to break world records these days you need some serious hardware,” said Vince “K|NGP|N” Lucido. “This card was engineered to serve one purpose… be the world’s best overclocking graphics card. Expect GPU clockspeeds at over 1.85GHz with extreme cooling.”
“With the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Classified K|NGP|N Edition graphics card, we focused on the basic demands that are needed when doing extreme overclocking,” said Illya “TiN” Tsemenko. "Capable hardware design and heavy power delivery capacity is key for performance dominance and the ultimate gaming experience. So too is a unique power convertor able to provide over 450W of clean voltage for every kind of overclocking!"

Thanks for the info Ryan, apparently N/A in the US. Newegg has a 780Ti but not called a Kingpin Edition.

I dunno, but whenever I hear the name EVGA it makes me think Alienware. Overpriced equipment. Nothing personal but all their products seem to be 100% more than their counterparts yet have the same specs...so what exactly is the extra cash for? The namebrand?

Everyone used to go to EVGA because of the warranty they offered but I think they've changed the length of it now. I maybe wrong though.
The Kingpin is so expensive because it's been re designed for pure power and overclockability on sub zero cooling. On air there isn't much difference between the Kingpin and the Classified and some have even reported very poor oc's. I can't find the thread i was reading though to link but it was on the EVGA forum somewhere.

If the Kingpin does use 450W, I think only sub-zero cooling would keep it from a melt down.

Yeah enit mate, I think the reason they just left the cooler un coloured is because the market they're aiming it will be removing it anyway. It will be nice to see how far it can be pushed though
