Description
This was my first build in over 5 years and I really wanted to focus on aesthetics. I was very pleased with how the color scheme came together and everything went relatively smoothly.
I did have one major hiccup as the system did not power on when I first pieced it together. It may have been a short or a loose 24-pin...I'm still not sure. I was able to get the system to power and POST outside of the case and everything worked great once I got it all put back together.
I seem to have won the 4770k lottery as well. I have it sitting at 4.7ghz 1.225v passing 12+ hours of AIDA64 stress testing not exceeding 90c under the h100i. The 780ti also holds a +75/+100 OC, although I have been leaving it at stock for now and letting GPUboost do its thing. It routinely runs around 1150mhz and does not seem to go above 72c (around 30c idle).
Future improvements include the 780ti backplate from EVGA and removing my PSU stickers for a cleaner look. I am also waiting on a replacement front bezel from Corsair for the 750D as one of the front panel clips is broken (a pretty common issue from what I've seen).
