Nice job, bud. I know what you mean, my wife looks at me weird when I get the kitchen oven mits on to carry the microwaved boiling water upstairs to put on my tubing.
On that air bubble, looks like some rockin' and rollin' with the case tonight.

Yeah!!! Water and electricity making magic. Very nice.
I found some darker blue sleeving in my collection ... so, when you're ready to start over :rofl:
I still think it looks good the way it is. Also, notice how that blue sleeving matches the blue on your mb?
:clap: :clap: :clap:
Well done my friend, well done! :up:
You use mits?Quote:

Thanks Shazza! I think Nils has some too and now everyone tells me they have a darker blue sleeving (pulling my hair out) and it's too late. I have to leave for the Middle East in a coupe of weeks so I want to play before I leave.Quote:

I tried to order two of these but Charles said there was no way I could break it! I always get two of everything, except for wives. We all have our limitations!
I will have TWO new ones tomorrow morning and the Madness will end, finally.
Here is a glimpse of the next color scheme for my upcoming "Copper-Head" build.

The case color will be unreal and 100% powder coated to boot. I am doing my research regarding the proper components. I may stick with my current dual Opty server or I may go nuts and go with a Skulltrail.:eek:
One thing for sure, Nils will be busy with some crazy sleeving colors! Are you ready Nils?:ROTF:
looking fantastic!Quote:

looking forward to the next builds color sceme - that looks very very nice!
good choice sticking w/ the HD :up:- it fits w/ the rest of the build better - the blue of the plexi was to light & more of a baby blue & really did not look right w/ the rest of the blue accenting (which i like a lot!)
sorry to be this guy & maybe open another can of worms (unless you already tried)...but i did not see you try out blue shrink on the blue sleeving - was this attempted & not to your visual appeal?
the red shrink on the red sleeving for the accenting that i did w/ my build has really grown on me...hope this does not slow down your forward movement:rolleyes:
A big thank you PG!Quote:

I will be back at again tomorrow!

In any event, when I sent you the one it was all I had at the time... it was actually my own.
Glad to hear you'll be back in business Monday - keep up the great work! :)
Been looking all day for your updates ... sorry about breaking your tool (wait, that didn't come out quite right ... blushes).
You know, you coulda used the old fashioned STAPLES method. I can't believe I did that for my first go 'round. Then ... I broke the expensive tool within 5 minutes, then ordered 5 of the $5 ones ... only broke one, then finished my GPUs and now have 4 left - but I pray to the Good Lord I never need to use them!!! Sleeving PSUs is something made popular by a Canadian Sadist and friends!!!
This copper build is going to be something to watch. Ummm, is that your snake?
I had my headphones on and I working on the 24 pin when my wife tapped me on the shoulder from behind. I was in another world and she startled me, snap! Thanks for the kudos Charles.Quote:

Very frustrating.:(
Isn't it possible to lead your PCI-E cables directly to the back on the left of the cards? Just as the 24-pin cable, simply lead it directly behind the motherboard tray.
Routing your SATA cables around the back from the 5,25 inch trays?
Still it's a nice build what you have there Seeker ;) I wish I had the hardware :P
yeah the best way to route the cables is just to hide them :) even if they look so nice
i like alot how 6 dominators look together, dont hide them behind the wires
Yes, it is possible, but I am leaning towards going back to my Ultra X3 and ditching most of the sleeving altogether. My blues do not match and there are too many wires visible.Quote:

The sleeving job that you did is exceptional Rocky but my only issue with sleeved PSU wires is that they are tough to "bundle" to keep the size contained. That is why I have said in the past we need to come up with a way to corral the wires without just tie-wrapping the bundles.Quote:

I feel your pain. I keep looking at these pics to see what could be done to help the look, yet keep all your functionality. Now I know why some of the prettiest builds don't have much extra stuff (e.g. drives and more).Quote:

The Optical drive is tricky ... the cabling might look better if it was on the bottom of your stack - but then, that probably doesn't fit with how you've designed the front.
And the GPU strings ... I don't think it's the color of the blue as much as the fact that the texture/fabric is different the the black. A darker color would help as well.
Doesn't help much, but I'm still thinking about it. I've got an Ultra X3 myself ... I just don't know if that's going to look better, but I'm sure you'll figure it out!

I agree with you regarding the texture of the sleeving. Truly a Canadian and German :banana::banana::banana::banana:up!
Have a nice evening!
It looks to me like with the pci-e wires, the bottom cards plugs are coming in ontop then going under. I think you just need to play around a bit with how they lay with each plug and each wire. You will get it :up:
but you know if you get bored of that you can send those cards to me :rofl:

I was just thinkin' about you brother! I asked Shoggy if AC would make a Delrin top for my Cuplex XT DI and this is what he sent me. He said André from http://shop.anfi-tec.de/ also sells the tops in white.
You had me at the Austin Martin a few pages back. Glad I was around to watch you create this masterpiece. :YIPPIE:
@ShoNuff -- Damn that Delrin AF tops looks great on the Cuplex XT DI.. always wondered how that would have looked like.
I mush prefer the solid top on the HD then the XT since i don't like the (tealish color of the clear top).
@theseeker - At least everything is up and running and no isses like last time...
I personally think the wiring looks less clutered now then the previous install with all the cables a solid black.
I think the PCi-e and ATX connectors look fine and I would just try hiding or rerouting the CD and HD cables a bit and I think it would look great.
@theseeker
maybe something like this would help you with your cable problem. I had the same problem with my Lian Li V2010 build (and it's pretty harder to route cables on the back of the motherboard tray since the space is very cramped)

Also, let the 8-pin powercable come from behind the mobo- above.
That will make it heaps more clean.
As said, the blue is a nice touch but a darker shade of blue would look better.
Strange thought but maybe you could try to spraypaint the sleeving prior to sleeving?
Good luck man, i'm convinced you'll get it worked out. ;)
How about mounting the hard disks vertically? Then will be able to route the sata data and power cables down using the holes near the front io connection module of the tj-07.
To add to that, you should try to route the GPU power cables behind the reservoir, might be a cleaner look.
Or maybe shorten some of your cables? Just kidding, looks great! :D I do like Infinity's idea about putting the cables behind the res...and they might look cool distorted through the res!
The HDD connectors are in the front of the case and those cables are easily re-routable and not my concern.Quote:

The most HDD's you can mount vertically is three and that does not look good either.Quote:

Thanks James for the input. The SATA's are not a problem, those are now hidden. In the case of the 24 pin, I don't have enough room through the midplate. Remember that I have a Feser 120.4 under the backside and little room for wiring.Quote:

nice dog pics Rocky :up: - they look very content w/ their bones
what happened :confused: sleeving gone....oh my...ultra psu..bunched cables....oh dear...:(
i know what you mean about the texture - that is prob the one thing i have a problem w/ on my build - having more strands woven together makes a dramatic difference
i hope charles/nils can get some red together soon! that would make my day
good luck w/ the 3rd or is it 4th round of madness w/ your power supply saga...hopefully you can get it ironed out, get some closure & move on to that copper project :D
Having a new problem! When the system posts I get this message, "USB Over Current Device Detected."
The strange thing is that I cannot enter setup. I have tried two different keyboards and the system recognizes ctrl-alt-del but not the delete key alone? I tried removing the CMOS battery and that did not work. This board posted just fine last week.
Any suggestions?
I am sure you have done this already, but have you unplugged all USB devices such as external hard drives, etc.? Do you have a PS-2 keyboard if the mobo can accept one?Quote:

Also, is this with the Ultra PSU? Can't imagine that being the issue, as I'd think you'd have other problems if there was a problem with the PSU voltage ... but just thinking (Danger! Danger!) ... USB takes 5 volts, so if the PSU is overshooting on the 5V line, could this lead to the USB over voltage error message? I doubt very much that this would be the case, but sometimes goofy ideas lead to the real solution.
I think I will remove the IO shield and see what happens.Quote:

However the Feser 120.4 keeps everything very cool. I am still at stock but the CPU idles at 27 and the GPUS at 31. More to follow.
Glad you got it up and running.
I'm sure you've checked ... but any possibility your USB wires are crossed or not making full contact for the Aquaero (I only asked, as it was something I had to double check 14 squillion times after sleeving my Aquaero cable :p: )
i had this happen to me this week. i had to pull the battery from the MB and reset it, it fixed the problem.Quote:

I am not satisfied with the wiring but I need to play some games an OC this beast. It will stay this way until I return from my travels. Hopefully, Nils will have the new sleeving ready and I can begin again. I am very happy from a performance and cooling standpoint. I am a confessed M|M-aholic, a Feser-aholic and H20-aholic.
The scotch, don't even ask, I have been drinking it for 20 years and I am still not addicted.

Mr. theseeker,
It gets more and more beautiful each day. Congratulations on setting new standards for system builds. Very impressive indeed!
Fresh out of the lab. PCI-E sleeved with SATA-sleeve. Might be an option for you:
http://img3.abload.de/img/mdpc-x-pcie-sata3e57.jpg
1. small shrink over the blank cable so that there is a seamless transistion into the connectors
2. three cables in one SATA sleeve. Put it in parallel (!) and you get the look that I achieved.
3. use SATA-heatshrink to shrink it
:)
Edit: OMG ... I see that you have "different faceplate"
I take a bow! Many thanks for the compliment!!! I truly appreciate your kind words.Quote:

Good work, Rocky.
Yep - the flex cables gotta go, but they were an interim measure anyway. Sounds like Nils may have a nice solution for you.
As for wallpaper ... easy enough - just size your pic to whatever size you want and host it. Do you know the size of files your shooting with direct from your camera (JPEG? Raw?)?
Thanks Shazza!Quote:

Can't read the small print (yes, I am and oldster!). Interested in your Vcore for these runs.
Also ... make sure you download Real Temp 3.0, it's possible 2.7 is giving you slightly lower readings due to how it reads Tjmax for the i7. Also, 3.0 will give you a temp from your GPU - very handy.
Looking good!
It is handy and a nice addition, but I wish they would show two GPU temps for those of use with SLI.Quote:
