BTW... why did you buy a 2600k if you aren't going to overclock? Should have just gotten a 2600 and saved some money :p

I figure he has the NZXT Sleeves... right Kenji?

bad thing about the phantom is when you zip it up, you can't see a lot of the inside, no windows at all...

Correct, NZXT sleeved LED kits, 1 1m and 1 2m one :)

Very nice kenji.

BTW, in the video you said you have your CPU cooler setup with 1 fan in pull... but it sure looks like it's in a push configuration.

That and what lighting kits did you use?

And yes, A/F for video is pretty much useless :p

you're correct actually, and i ended up adding the second fan to the CPU cooler, I need to debug my cooling a bit though, i think the fans on the Ven X arent cutting it..

yes... I have the red ones :D

but blue would have been better... to color match this

Phantom assembly-7857 (external link) by bee_tee_double_you (external link), on Flickr

I love the red ones too

And i actually ordered a P8P67 Deluxe as well as the Sabertooth, to make sure i got one of the damn boards, When the Sabertooth shipped however i canned my P8P67...

The blue doesnt exactly match the Sabertooth's color scheme either i must add lol

Couple more before bed

I have a few better pics of the inside of my rig, Lighting the thing for pics is proving to be a pain in my rear sadly...I am absolutely dreadful with flash photography and that :(

The black interior of the case likely isnt helping, neither is how darn shiny the Ven X is, so that when i get enough light in the computer the Ven X reflects it like a mirror

and heres a shot of my old one all lit up

???? it is overclocked to 4.5?

I need to debug my cooling a little still, but 4.5 makes me happy

Because i planned to? And I did? lol my 2600k is at 4.5ghz right now when i do intensive work, I just turned the turbo up from 3.8 to 4.5 as opposed to having it run oc'd constantly

Oh, well in your video you said you hadn't made up your mind if you were going to overclock or something like that.
