@cwjones450, nice build. I'm curious about your PSU mod with the 2 fans. Do you have a build log I could read or some pics of the implementation?

I do not have one right now, let me see if I can put on together in the next week, because I have another power supply opened up to perform the same mod on it.

Such Great builds in here! goodluck and keep it up guys
 

My system is comprised of...
Intel G3258 @ 4.0 on stock cooler, the Artic Freezer Pro 7 Rev.2 is on the way. Will take the overclock up to 4.6 ish when installed.
EVGA GTX 970 SC ACX 1.0... Sigh... thought I was getting the 2.0, but I digress. Lol, Anyone else do that?
Gigabyte Z97N-WIFI, reliable board that also has great I/O placement for this build.
Kingston Hyper Fury Black 8GB Single DIMM @ 1600mhz. Well priced and leaves a DIMM slot open for 16GB expansion down the road.
Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition fans to replace the stock exhaust fans. They are nice but after installing, i really didn't notice the unit being all that much quieter due to the loud graphics card whining it out, even at idle.
Samsung EVO 240GB + Hitachi Deskstar 2TB
EVGA Hadron Air, LOVE IT. It's just been so fun to build in. Love the look and style.
I slapped a Tek Syndicate decal on the face to give it some personal touch to it. 
 
What do you guys think?

Hey Guys
 
Thought i would post mine built a few systems but done my best to be as neat as i can. I know its not a comp winner but wanted to give it a shot. After reading and looking at the case i was convinced the H100i would fit and it does. I mounted the fans on the top part of the case and a gentle push and it worked its a tight fit and i would seriously look at your motherboards layout before buying anything as you can see its tight.

Thanks :)
 

 

Hello Leigh. I really like your build, Could you tell me how you mounted that radiator in that compartment? The two waterhose are perpendicular to the radiator. I saw you didnt wire the tubes outside of the case. Did you drill two holes on top of the case??

really like last build 

Hello all! I figured I would drop in and show some pics of my new EVGA Hadron Air I just built. I still need to sleeve the 24-pin cabling but that is about it. First off, I will list off all Hardware in my build.

Here are some pics.
 

 

 

 

 

 
Overall my build went pretty smooth. The only issue I ran into was with some port locations on my motherboard. The 24 pin port is on the top side of my motherboard, so the power cabling barely reaches it. The USB port on my motherboard is on the top as well, off to the left. So the USB cable for the front/side USB ports wouldn't even reach, as well as the other cable for the Audio ports. I just removed the USB/Audio housing and put some electrical tape over the holes, between the side of the chassis and the panel on that side. 
 
Everything runs great in my setup. My CPU temps are 28ish idling, and 48ish under load. Never go above 50c. My R9 290x on the other hand idles around 40c, and up to 90c under full load. The thing runs hot! I looked it up though and I guess this is normal. It was more like 48c / 95c before I re-pasted with some AS5. The stock paste job was horrid! 
 
Well, thanks for looking guys!
 
P.S- My PSU fan seems pretty silent for the most part. After some time gaming it can get kind of loud though.
 
P.SS- This was my first PC Build ever! I have always been more of a laptop guy, buying gaming laptops for most of my life. Iv'e always wanted to build my own PC and a mITX at that. I went AMD to save a few hundred bucks and for my needs it is more than enough performance/power. 
 
 

I really need to stop looking at all of these.... before I give in....
