    @rvcjew, very impressive, nicely builded watercooling loop and set up. You might be a little tight with a GTX 780 SLI and a 750W PSU when at full load...

    Regarding cables management i've taken a pic back in June 2014, before heading watercooling loop this july...The back is worst now with some cables added!! Like the others feeling at shame when is time to put back the side panel...i've got to use my own head and a load of force with my hands to push it hard to trigger the locks.

    It's nice to see the new builds.
    We need to spread the word that it fun to build and design your own system.
    Steve and I use the same case and I think he will agree that with all the room the case has, another inch behind the motherboard would make things nicer and neater. Making the Primo case a inch wider would of made it a Super Primo.

    I have seen some very costly cases, including Case Labs that really don't take into consideration how people are really using their system. With extra cooling, lots of fans and even more lights. All these things come with wires.

    Has anybody noticed that all pumps come with ugly wires. You would think with the price of a quality pump they could sleeve the damn wires.

    I like things a little neater.

    Oooooh Jeannie; that looks great.
    That's what I call proper cable management.
    Some how I don't believe your new system will be a rats nest.

    If you ever get in the mood to install lots of fan, fan hubs come in really handy.

    Wanna bet? This is before the HDD power and SATA data cables have been installed. The GPU and sound card power cables haven't been installed yet, either.

    I'm way ahead of you. There are six fans in the new case but only four chassis fan headers on the MOBO. The front fan gets its own header as does the rear fan. The top two fans share a single header via a fan splitter cable.

    The two side panel fans also share a single header. I cut down a four fan fan hub to two fans to use to connect and disconnect the side fans when removing the side panel.

    That is not bad wiring while in the middle of a build.
    It will take some time as you well know when everything is installed to clean the wiring up.
    Most of my time is spent on planning and it looks like you have a plan.
    How to get wire/harness from point (A) to point (B) in a orderly fashion and if all possible hide the wire/harness. No wires seem to be the proper length.

    Speaking of wiring length; I have a new solder station coming. This junk one I got is driving me crazy. When it finally does get hot it never matches the temp I have it set to.
    My next one.

    Hakko FX 888D. It should make my wire modifying a bit easier.

    I find the speeds to be all over the place with Ivy E and quad channel ram...
    Guess I'll figure that out in time hey. With all the tweaking options available these days, I can't not go play with them..

    That all makes mine sound low at 2400 and the timings in my spec area I get 32834mb/s. My old corsair vengeance was faster but for render jobs I have 32GB of this. If you guys know of better timings to try be my guest.
    That's not a speed to be sneezed at by any standards, my previous machine only got about 15000MB/s.


    Well, after seeing how many cables some of you guys try fit in the back of the case, I don't feel quite so bad about mine at the moment. (excuse the crappy picture, my phone camera is messing me around again)

    Sure it's not "neat" by any mark, but they don't get in the way either. The individually sleeved cable kit should help a bit in that sense, but I also need to make a plan for my fan header cables.. Turns out the Corsair AF and SP fans ship with really short cables. At the moment one of my front fans isn't even connected.
