Cheers guys, now the water cooling
But I want to get it powder coated/painted matt black on the outside and gloss black inside. We'll see
Btw that braid is TechFlex - my favourite.
Here's a picture of the tools I used

Here's a few more pics, I grabbed some of those NZXT pre-braided cable extensions for the 8pin and 24pin. I also got a molex to 3x sata pwr cable as the cable runs from corsair are the wrong way round for a floor mounted PSU, you would think that they would do 1x line of sata for a roof mounted PSU and a line for floor mounted - but no !!
There's still a molex to sata cable I'm going to braid myself but that'll have to wait till I can get some different heatshrink.

I think you pulled the trigger on that Maximus too soon, Z68 chipset is out in 2 weeks

Bit more of a tidy up, I would still like to do something about the PCI-E 8 pin and 6 pin.
Got to get some SSDs for this soon

I'm going to add a SSD to this next week, I have my eye on getting one of these
OCZ Vertex 3 MAX IOPS Edition 240 GB
Just one for the moment, as I still have a couple of things I need to get for the other PC I'm rebuilding.

Was just about to pull the trigger on the OCZ but do i buy a
Corsair Force 3 240GB
or go with my original idea and a
OCZ Vertex 3 240GB MAX IOPS
From what I have read to date is get the OCZ, I'm gonna see what else I can find.

Well, I think I'm going to get the Corsair Force 3 or the GT version when I can get some stock - hopefully on monday
I can't find any reviews atm, but the specs are roughly the same as the OCZ MAX IOPS so should be good.

Still no stock of the Corsair Force 3, and more stock of the OCZ MAX IOPS isn't due til the 30th June so either way I have to wait
So I'm going to hold fire till I can get one of these...
Corsair Force 3 Series SSD - 240 GB - SATA-600
Or the GT version - still waiting for some reviews.

Didn't Corsair recall all of the Force 3 SSD's?
