I should have watched it before it got taken down. I have the feeling I didn't miss much, though.

It should be fine, I disputed the claim on the audio.

WTF I live in CensorGermany. I can't watch 50% of the YouTube videos but I do can watch that one.

Yeah, the dispute should have unblocked it in pretty much every country.

EDIT: Oh wait, for some reason Germany was listed as one of the countries where the video was available by default. Maybe I messed up the dispute or it hasn't gone through for some reason. If it's not up after a week I'll reupload it and dispute again.

Yes you'll have to do that since we still can't see it!!! :maddowns:

Some of you have already seen it, but here it is (still unblocked, and SHOULD remain unblocked):

Forgot to put up some pics. Going through them, I've only got a couple that are worthy of showing. Haven't taken any beauty shots of the finished build since the GTX590 showed up so late. I'm running a LAN on the 21st, so I'll take some then. I plan on getting three 24" monitors and arraying them in portrait mode while there, so that will have some decent picture opportunities. Also, I figured out how to get the fan/led assembly powered, so it can do that stuff now.


First off, I'd like to thank Newegg/Tiger Direct for switching to paper padding on their shipping boxes. It was a pain in the ass the last time the cat found a box of packing peanuts.


Naturally took a shot of the mobo before I dropped the 2600k in. Wished I had an SLR to control the focus on the pins, but this is better than nothing. Kinda kicking myself for getting this mobo. That thermal shield is designed to only work when you drop a fan in it. Stupidly enough, a fan does not come standard. Where other parts on the motherboard idle in the mid 20s, the area by the USB 3.0 controller idles 20 degrees warmer. Gets worse when you're rendering.


Setup to see if it POSTs. After this, I started putting it into the case. At that point, cable routing and screw thread frustration kept me from taking many pictures. Of those, the most interesting involve me taking up a stupid amount of table space for the build.


Actually, I take that back, I do have one, but it's kinda meh. At least it gives a bit of perspective on how it fits.


Raptor showed up like this. Those plastic bumpers they use to pack the OEM versions probably had someone jam their thumb down on it to fit them on there causing the power header to give way. Gotten it back from RMA, just gotta find the time to drop it in.

More to follow after the 21st.

Lmao at the Raptor.

oh god that case


ugh

How is that Level 10 GT for cable management? Did they make it easy to get to the front bays? Video showing that off would be awesome :)

Guess what I got, didn't guess? Well have some videos:
