A friend hit me up on twitter the other day and asked if I would be interested in a Caselabs Magnum TH10. I told him that I had just ordered a 900D but what was he asking for it. He said if I'll use it to build something awesome it was free. Well I canceled my 900D order on the spot. And he sent it to me. Brand new never even out of the plastic. So I am still trying to figure out colors but I pretty much know whats going in it. So, here it goes! Mobo: EVGA X99 FTW (ordered) CPU: Intel i7 5930k (ordered) Memory: Have not made my decision yet as I am waiting to see if Kensington will offer other colors in their HyperX Predator line. (Only really want HyperX mem.) GPU: Nvidia 900 series as soon as they come out. 3 of them to be exact. PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 1600G2 (I know I don't need all that power but I can so I will) SSD: 3x Kensington HyperX Fury 240gb HDD: Seagate 2tb Fans: 27x Corsair Air Series SP120 Quiet Edition Fan Controller: 2x Bitfenix Recon White Fan Controler Fittings: PrimoChill Rigid Revolver Hardline Compression Fittings 90s and 45s: Alphacool Res: 2x PrimoChill CTR Phase II High Flow D5 Enabled Reservoir System 240mm Pumps: 2x Alphacool VPP655 Variable Speed Pump w/ RPM Monitoring Rads: 2x EK Ultimate Performance CoolStream 480 XTX Series Liquid Cooling Radiator EK Ultimate Performance CoolStream 360 XTX Series Liquid Cooling Radiator Blocks: All Blocks will be EK Fluid: Ice Dragon Tubing: PETG (found a place to order it only $1.08 a ft. min 48ft. I should have some left over to sell I still have 12ft from my last build and I am gonna do my sons PC and my micro build also). So that is as far as I have gotten. Here is a pic of the case just for teasers. This thing is beyond massive and I cant wait to fill it up!!!

It was actually suppose to say 24 fans. That's 22 for push/pull on all 3 rads, one on the psu side and one on the rear.

You might need to rethink your fan controller if your using those for corsair fans.

Can't wait to see this thing built.
Are you going to let your sons play on it? Or is this your baby?

Board came in yesterday, CPU will be here tomorrow. Oh I wish nVidia will hurry up with this 900 series. I wanna build this thing out!

Issue with the PWM Corsair fans is Corsair has a weird way they implemented the PWM signal. So if you plan to control them via PWM pulse you can usually only split them 3 times per header roughly or you loose the ability to slow them down. Three options really with the Corsair fans are let them run wide open all the time, get a DC controller such as a Lamptron FC-9 that is 50 watts per channel then you can control them via DC control and the slider instead of PWM. Last option is the route I took which is a new version of the Aquacomputer Aquaero 6xt. They updated the electronics so you can control the PWM pulse a little better on the Corsair fans. I tested the new version and was able to power and control 10 fans per channel and it has 4 so theoretically you could power and control 40 Corsair pwm fans.
I really like the Corsair fans looks and performance so I stuck with them. I originally was going to do push pull on 4 rads but as my build progressed and research realized I really only need to set fans up in push and I was going to use 3 rads instead. This helped bring the number of fans down from 25 fans to 14. Already had them all so ended up with some extras for the next build. Amazon had a crazy deal on them so got them much cheaper.

Hmm, well the original reason I was going with the bitfenix was ro keep from painting it. Looks like I may have to paint anyway.

As fans go I would of gone for Noctua Fans, they are the best when it comes to airflow, and if money isn't an issue this is what I would of done, back in the 90's and mid 2000's Papst Fans were the best, until Noctua came, they are silent have really good airflow but are worth it as well. PSU Wise I'd go for a SeaSonix PlatinumX 1200 Watt, nothing touches the reliability and power efficiency of a SeaSonic PSU and especially going so high end, this would be a must have imo. For the rest, I'd be interested how your cable management will be, make it a neat clean build and it will truly shine like a piece of art !  Although for that money you can get a quad 16 Core Opteron 6376 G34 setup, but hey I am a server type so ignore that xD But of course if gaming is really your thing, this is not a bad choice, even though the Core i7 5770K Broadwell would be good enough for games and in most cases faster than that Haswell-E as games go as well. All in all you'd save a huge lot of money too and you could buy a 4th GTX 980 and do all your high workloads with your four GM204-400-A1's 4x 1920 Maxwell CUDA Cores.. But yeah this is what I would do if going for a high end gaming setup, LGA 2011-V3 based Extreme CPU's are a waste of money imo same for X99 based motherboards etc, if going for a high end gaming system. But yer it really depends what you plan to do with 8 Cores & 16 Threads, if this is aimed as a high end gaming workstation then its a more obvious choice

my MM case had 4 rads, equaling 18 fans and another 18-21 case fans....

Fans are fun!
Did you pick out a 900 series GPU?
I plan on going quad 980s just waiting for my job to close down and get that severance package!
