    (and ... PaRN ssR often chimes in with one word comments - but only on the builds he really likes, so take it as a compliment )
    Thanks shazza! I'm glad you like it! I definitely admire what you have done to promote these projects.

    Yah, I think I'm going to leave it for now. At least until I decide I "need" a faster card...

    Is a good clean build. Even better would be to stealth the optical drive.
    I like that thought but with my cutting and shaping skills, I'm afraid it would look out of place. However, I'm taking your advice and will work on the stealth drive. I think that would clean up the front just nicely!

Went with the same tubing because of your amazing pics, perfect size/color imo. As for the red pcb my suggestion would be (if it's really irking you, if not let it be) is to go with the ek fc+backplate. It will make just about all of it black and look great in there. Yes it's not cheap but it's something like 250$ or more cheaper than a new card. Glad you updated, reminds me I need to get to finishing my own. Awesome build.

    p.s. Can you tell me where you found those 3/8 to 1/4 thread adapters in matte black? Somewhere that ships to USA I hope?
    So you're saying I'm responsible for getting you started? I hope you don't blame me for spending too much money on it!

    With regards to the EK block, that is a good option. I wish I had considered that prior. If I decide to go crossfire, then I'll probably go that route!

    Thanks, send a note to Bitspower to see where you can get it from in the US. Vincent is cool and responsive!

    With a few well placed cuts, and getting rid of the mechanical portion of the cdrw bezel, and some double sided tape, you can stealth any drive.

    This wasn't possible with the c-01.
    Flat black is great, but brushed aluminum is better.

    Otherwise damn near perfect. Don't be in a rush to upgrade your card, if it does the job.... then keep it.

    Cool! I remember seeing a someone add a stealth drive to their build months ago but lost the source.

    Here I thought I was done but now I have something else want to do! Thanks!!

    Oh and the card is staying for now...
