Well, I finished the Core i7 build last week sometime, just been really busy to make a post about it, that’s all.
Anyhow, it’s been running great, CPU temps idle are maxing out at about 26 dgrees, GPU temps are a little hot, but thats what I get for getting a single-slot cooler on it.
All in all there is nothing I’d really do differently, rather than get a modular power supply. There are so many damn cables inside that case, and I know my airflow could be WAY better if I got modular… not that it matters with the 10 total fans I have inside the case.
Anyhow, photo time.

Rest of the photo set is located here.
Here’s me and Tim Fiore trying to mount the motherboard to the heatsink… yes, in that order. This heatsink is MASSIVE. I really couldn’t of done this build without his help, I was so far behind in the world of hardware it was absurd.
Oh yeah, one more thing…
8 CPUs IS AWESOME!
