Blue Steel

My first custom loop system build. Been slowly acquiring parts since the release of the 5950x last year. After months of waiting for a decent price on a GPU, I'm finally throwing it together.

It's a minimal RGB build, going for mostly solid black, silver, blues (cryofuel). As you can see, I'm still planning my loops. I've gone as far as I can and now have to decide how I'm going to run the loops. Not sure yet... ideas are welcome!?!?

Pay no mind to the cable spaghetti. All that is going in the trash soon. I just wanted to throw it together and make sure i was able to boot, plus I was waiting on a shipment from EK and Cable Mod and just couldn't wait any longer.

I'm going to go ahead and publish with the hope that I can continually update the build log and add pics as I finish it up.
