It is my intention to make this a white themed build. Sadly the GPU will not be white.

SOOO many dollars to Corsair lol (no offense, I've given plenty of dollars to be quiet! and others haha...I just know how much fan kits can cost).
Sticking with the 7950X or going with something else (heavy on the cache side) when it launches?

Nice looking build RJ.  Looks to be plenty of airflow in your case.

I intend on putting in more fans but I need some more parts from Corsair.

Was it hard to find different cables both long or short enough to connect the different Corsair units with easy routing & a tidy result?
I'll be keeping an eye out for any black Friday sales on this Corsair iCU Link (mono-cable) fan system

 I made some changes. AIO is now on top. There are still 16 fans installed but I re-arranged them. There are now three fans in back of the AIO

Temps have been staying low. I suspect 16 fans is making a difference.

Tomorrow I will reverse the four fans next to the AIO so that they are exhaust.
