Since building my first caselabs case I got from Daz, have come to the conclusion that they are the case for me.
New hardware am debating but not sure anything is really worth it, X99 still a bit pricey, z170 has really cool motherboards but cpus are not really much different from my 4790k I have now on the z97 chipset, a grand for a 5% increase in performance is not worth it really.
Plan is to build reversed again, now for cooling I will reuse my 3 ek 360pe rads, is more than enough cooling for anything I own now or may buy idea in the future.
Video seems to be the only thing that would see a real improvement in regards to the 2-780's I have now, then again I use a 144 g-sync 24" monitor @ 1080 so again the 2 cards I have are complete overkill now. Other thing is the blocks I now have were bought on the thought "damn your not seeing these things upside down", so went black acetel ek's no back plates, they will be a problem to me in the rebuild, am thinking too redo the blocks with acrylic and back plates idea minimum.
I welcome any suggestions, comments and criticism's.
Thx, for taking the time to read this long rant, will post some pics once case arrives and decide what I am doing idea.
