Show Us Your Rig [8]

[paulpicks21]

Not bad Juan, It looks a little like my case lol.

I tend to see your builds before you post them on here on facebook. I can never understand what you are saying on facebook though as it's not in English but the rigs always look great.

Hey Paul, how are you friend?
How's life in the UK? You are about to get some sun and warm days finally!

As you once said "the 690 is a bit old skool...", but I really dig this rig.
I like how the 4770K, this mainboard and the 690 work together. Lots of muscle!

Thanks for your comments and for dropping by our FB page.

Cheers,

I read through the "car audio" thread and it brought back some fond memories.

I had 2x 12" Rockford Fosgate sub-woofers and Alpine component systems on all four doors (6" woofers and 1 1/4" separate silk tweeters) all driven by one 350W Rockford poweramp for the bass and a 250W Alpine for the mid and high end, all nicely fitted in my 2002 Grand Cherokee.

Now, when I'm driving around with the GF and she starts chattering about shoes, bags and shopping, I sure wish I still drove that car and not a two seater with a Bang & Olufsen piece of c#@p designed for jazz and classical.

I am not too bad Juan, I have a cold but I will get over it lol. Yes it will be nice when summer arrives, we have had a few nice days so far.

I don't know if I have done any upgrades since I spoke to you last. Did I have the 4930K and X79 Deluxe when we spoke last?

I bet you are looking forward to doing some Devils canyon builds, there are some very nice looking motherboards coming out and of course the CPU's should overclock a lot better.

Juan, very well done, my friend. Excellent build, as usual for you. You do great work. Stop by more often. We love your pictures and comments. I don't go on Facebook very often, but I do check your page when I do. Quit working so hard and come here more often. You are missed.

Hello guys. How are you doing? Long time no see...

Well, I'm back with a rig I think you might enjoy.

As always, suggestions, comments and ideas are more than welcome.

Game on!

Welcome back, stranger! Good to see you and another fabulous rig again!

Hi Juan,
I really like how the orange is glowing in the dark of your build. Outstanding work as always and so good to hear from you and see your latest works !

 

[paulpicks21]

Looks like he has gone sadly. Catch you again in a couple of months Juan

 

[ganjiry]

Very nice build again Juan, Excellent work as always mate

 

[Britton30]

Hi Juan, excellent build as always/ I really like the white interior lighting.

 

[Dude]

Great build Juan, look forward to seeing more

It got so hot in here the other day.

So, I decided to improvise a bit. Since I couldn't put the other Corsair Air Series SP-120 fans inside my case, why don't I install it outside of it instead?

And I wish the CPU cooler wasn't a smidgen too big to begin with. Gonna have to cut a large window in the case and form it around so that it can fit, with space to put both my SP-120s. Now, what kind of material is best for making a side-panel window with?

 

[Dude]

I would turn that fan around. I have that set up too

Changed today my ordered Fan Controller Phobya Touch 6. Before i had the Kaze Master Flat (V1) w/4channels but i found it too weak on provided Watt, two channels were not initializing when powering the PC, cut-off by the loading compare to this Phobya one that have 30W per channels.

As i'm rearranging my Fans setup with 140mm...

It has pretty average settings but it does quite well. Unlikely the review up-there on "Cons" i do not have the feeling of having to push quite firmly the touch inputs. I found it quite reactive actually and far enough well build!

Added the 2TB WD Caviar Black I took out of my backup rig to my main rig over the weekend (fitted an SSD into the backup rig), mainly as an extra backup and to run VMs, and did a bit of extra cable management while I was in there. It will have improved airflow a lot and I noticed that only one of my two front fans were running. I changed the orientation of the top fan and wired them straight to the motherboard (no idea where they were wired before, I think they were into some sort of splitter, I didn't investigate too deeply) and temperatures are noticeably different, on my HDDs at least.

I'm toying with the idea of fitting an h80i with dual fan setup in exhaust at the position of the top fan at the back. Still on the fence with that one as if I did I know I'd just have to start messing with overclocking.

 

[Britton30]

Nice and tidy Gav.

 

[essenbe]

Nice job, Boozad. Looks like a very beat wiring job.

 

[Boozad]

Thanks lads. I'm still not 100% happy with it but it's a lot better than it was. I had limited time really and my main objectives were to fit the Caviar Black and get the front fan working. I've got to get back in there as I noticed my GPU is getting a bit dusty and needs some attention so I'll have another crack at the wiring then.



I just got to thinking how nice an h80i would look in there. I don't think I really need one but it's playing on my mind now.

 

[Layback Bear]

Gav it looks like you are getting things nice and organized.
Good job.

Nice rig...One question went to me regarding the H80i.

How does you set it up in Bios your "Q Fan" when using the "Corsair Link Dashboard" software? Are you gonna uninstall Asus AI Suite and set to standard (auto) the fans settings? Or only the one that will be used by Corsair software and keep Asus Ai Suite? Thanks!
