So I no have reached a HUGE problem in the build. The radiator up top is blocking 1 PCI slot and 1 PCIe slot. Both of which are very important to me. Either I can loose my RAID card & soundcard, or I loose SLI.
Solutions:
a. Loose the 2nd loop. I have all the equipment already and I really wanted to do a dual loop setup.
b. Loose SLI. Either buy a new more powerful card, or stick with a single 8800GT.
c. Buy another HTPC/file server. Throw the bluray/hddvd drive,soundcard, and RAID array in it, then use onboard sound *shiver* for my gaming PC.
Still undecided what to do as of yet. The whole reason I bought this board was for SLI
Pick of the mock-up setup to make sure everything was going to fit and to pick where the wires would be run, and holes be cut.
Excuse thety picture. Still trying to figure out a way to take a good pic of a case without daylight.
