I'm so loving the Gene-Z. Wow, what a great and stable board. Not even going to go into details but.... just WoW!
IHS for the GTX 580 will be here on Monday. A slight delay but the modding must go on... Almost time to slap on that waterblock.
I'll be on vacation next week. Rented a bungalow for the family and I here on the beach in Hawaii I'll get back to modding next weekend.
BTW, thanks Splave for the IHS You da Man Mate

580 installed (thank you Splave for the IHS), still have a lot of wire management and sleeving to work on. I'm more of a function over form type of person so I'll do my best. I'll snap some pics this weekend of this never ending work in progress.
Just got some Mayhem's Dye in hand. This should be fun

Hey mate,
Got another question for you:p
When you selected your rad for the top panel, did you have to buy one of a specific thickness so it didn't clash with the motherboard?
I'm trying to figure out if the HWLABS GTX radiator (56mm) will be to thick with fans on it, so to be safe I've chosen a koolance 30mm thick rad, for now.
Look forward to hearing from you.

*raises thread from the dead.
Any updates on this build? Curious if you noticed any adverse affects of using the dye in DI-Water or if you are happy with the results!
Intel Core i7 2600K @ 5.0ghz
Asus Rampage IV Extreme-z
16Gb (4x4Gb) Gskill DDR 2400mhz
Crossfire Radeon 7970
Seasonic Platinum 1000W
Samsung 840 Pro 240gb x2 Raid-0
Well, the machine has been running for a little over a month and since its filter cleaning time I thought I'd snap some pics of the progress.
Still need to work on wire management and sleeving. Also need to make a hold down plate for the power cord and the top trim piece for the drive bay.
Mick from Mayhems Dye was kind enough to send me a few samples so look out for my mini Dye review

Not really. Not an issue since the I'm using a mAtx board now anyway.
Never really used DI only. Always used PT-Nuke with it. I've never had a problem with that combination.
Not a Lan Rig, just my 24/7 daily driver. I have no need for a gigantic case... yet.....

If you need to direct contact me its michael at mayhems dot co dot uk.
Why'd you scrap the Gigabyte? Curious because that's what I'm using in my GF's build. I'm about to start my own build and was thinking i7 / UD7...but since I'm able to achieve such great results with the UD5 / i5...I see no reason to change it up. Nevermind the fact that Bulldozer may be worth a look...and of course...I could wait for Ivybridge. Sorry...tangent...but again...why the Gene-Z?
Never, under any circumstances should you be naked near fishing tackle.
Didn't scrap it, sold it There was nothing wrong with it, but I wanted something different and smaller.
Why ask why? Its a great board. Smaller than a full ATX and perfect for my build. Plus, you gotta love them ROG boards with all the bells and whistles.
