Well I've been working feverishly to get this hooked up and running.  Everything has gone smooth as pie so far.  Here are some pics and a shot of CPU-Z as well.  Haven't downloaded temperature settings yet.  Can someone link a good program for doing that? 

Enjoy, cause I sure am. 

P.S.  Wasn't that impressed with the UV fluid and light, but everything else rox.































Sorry some of the pics are blurry.  I was very excited I guess.  Ermm

The last two pics are just to give people an idea of just how big the HAF case really is. 

Cheers!!

Where does one get the 3DMark program that you guys all talk about?  Do you have to buy it to test your system?

It is UV Blue. If you look closely at one of the internal pictures you can see the liquid light up.
 
However, the Blue and Red don't give a nice glow as the green will.

Start a thread in the Configuration forum, please.
 
Give resolution you will be gaming at and ticket number if you already tried to configure a computer.  Then we can advise you what would work best.

if the blue and red UV fluid dont give off as good a glow as the green does, then why are the pictures of the UV blue and red in the configuration page so bright and beautiful?  the ones from the pics on this post are definitely NOT like that!   does anyone have a really good picture that really shows off the blue or red UV fluid in a case?  the pics of the UV lights on this post are not that great (no offense!  i just meant that it really hard to see the UV lights from the picture.  the other pics look awesome though!  Great rig.)
