Oh my, more new goodies!!! Love the monitor set-up. Have you had a chance to use the new Z10 Kb? If so how do you like it? Blue or brown??

I have used the new Z10 for gaming and MS office documents.
Overall I’m very happy with the feel and build of this keyboard. I went with the blue switches and they give real good feedback and a nice click every time I type with it. If you want a quiet setup, don’t go with the blue switches. Overall the build quality is good and it compliments the Carbon mouse very well.

Nothing like new parts in the box then assembling them. Looks awesome.

Thanks all, my favorite part of the setup is still the headphone stand.... how many games of Fortnite before you pass out?!

Just a quick update on the set-up:  I went shopping for a new chair, tried a few different ones like dx racer , noble,...etc. that a few of my friends had in there setup.  At the end, I went with the secret lab Titan!  
After using this chair for a few weeks now, I'm not disappointed one bit!  Quality is amazing, and is sooooo comfortable for long gaming nights.  The added bonus of taking a nap on a full reclining chair is awesome!

Thanks for the great comments.. loving the new rig!
So this is probably the final revision to the system... I just added the second video card, unfortunately I do miss the vertical video card look.  
No EVGA HB SLI bridges available so stuck with a Aorus HB bridge for now.

Playing around with Firestrike, looks like a decent GPU score of 36813 (with no overclock yet).  Nice improvement with SLI.

Your painted case is very nice.
You give nice idea to guys who like white hardware and PC Cases to paint their DG-87 because it's nicer than some white models.

Thank you for your nice comment... it’s something simple but also nice for people who likes white hardware and cases.

That's a good idea... looks like they discontinued the HB bridges atm.
