Great rig though!

I am about to get a corsair AIO liquid cooling kit, may I ask you why the logo is turned 90º?

Mounted the cooler the only way I could get the block to sit on the CPU based on how the instructions state to mount the radiator.

it's because you have a backplate to set behind the mobo to fit the cooler, if it don't fit you need to rotate it. As a Seidon 120v owner I recommend you to spend 10$ more to get a Noctua, the problem with waterblocks is that the fan (which is quite loud) is constantly spinnin (even without heavy load) so you can forget downloading games during night.

Thanks for the advice, I will consider getting a noctua.

You could do a custom loop, with a pwm controlled pump. My fans turn off at night, and the pump turns to a very low rpm.

why did you mount the cooler sideways?

I have a Seidon 120v, if you find it really loud don't forget that you need to set the maximum level (or turbo mode) to the pump and silence mode to the fan in the bios ; most of UEFIs are made for air cooling not for waterblocks.

Are people just recieving things from Corsair, EVGA and other companies?
1
I didn't receive anything from them. I was making a joke that I bought their products but wasn't sure if I should thank them or tell them that they are welcome having taken a lot of my money.

all that money spent and you get a very poor PSU and cheaper CPU cooler... good choice

Mostly because I do not overclock my CPUs anymore. Since that be the case why throw away money on super coolers and the like. Frankly I could have used the stock heat sink on the i7 and still be good.
Also what is wrong with the RM750 its a gold 80Plus PSU with 92% energy efficiency at real world load conditions. Guessing you think I need more power or something. When it wouldn't even pull that much at full load.

Fair enough but its not much money to get the h100/110, what is that one h80?
Corsair PSU have infamous reputation of poor quality and not matching there Watts or Gold standard, i myself had mine exposed from as little as an hour rendering.
GL, sexy GPUs will be sexy GPUS

Power supply is fine, what are you on about? Although those Corsair 120mm aio's do make a bit of noise from time to time, speaking from experience :/

You're mistaking this for CX. The other PSUs from corsair are fine, and this one is a great choice.

Does the case come in that green colour?
Case comes in Black or the Olive Green. Its looks very much like something the Army would make. Has handles on the top and the reset button has a safety flap over it.
Here is a picture of the front panel and one of the handles. http://imgur.com/c1znIo2
Edited: To add the image.
I saw one of those at Micro Center, and was intrigued. How was it building in the case?
It's great I have one too! Loads and Loads of space. Bottom and front intakes have dust filters. Modular drive cages.
But mainly I got it because it looks manly as fuck.
C70MR! I see you use a cdrom, look up the stealth mod you'll enjoy the look
Yeah I need to work on that. Maybe next weekend.
