      Some updates and some changes.

      Got the P5 and started to drain my current build (Fractal Design S).
      Also started to build in...or is it out? of the P5.

      Some hardware changes..
      Going to keep my current D5 Vario pump and Bitspower Res

          Not sure if you know about the crap PCI Riser cable that comes with these cases. Send an email to Thermaltake requesting a new one. I believe they send them out for free as they already know about the cable not working issue. Probably need to include a copy of your purchase invoice, for a proof of purchase.

            Yea I saw some people having issues. I have one of the shielded 3M riser anyways.

            So while waiting for parts to show up, I resleeved some cables and started to plug stuff in.

                Good call on the 3M riser. It's pricey, but it's the "no messing around" riser for sure. No PCIE 3.0 issues with that thing!

                    Looking good.
                    Some cable combs would help train your wires a bit nicer.
                    Curious as to why you have your rad fans in pull mode rather than push.
                    Nice work keep us posted.

                      It's cause the dust filter is on the other side.
                      Also if I do push the dust would be trapped between rad and fan

                        IDK, Good fans, but brown seems totally out of place in this build.

                          I was wondering when Noctua would go RGB.
