Compact RGB Galore!



Hey everyone, thanks for checking out my build. This is my first time building a desktop so please go easy on me.

This took me a day to build (or night rather as I was working the night shift). Then a whole week to build new fans and hubs as I could not figure out why the fan led are not lighting up. In the end it was just a bad molex cable.

All in all things come together pretty nicely in this Neo G case which is practically made for me! Coming off from gaming laptops I always want something compact but still have room for me to show off the components inside. The hyper-small cases don't do it for me as I just stare into a plain box, nothing more. This case on the other hand is just perfect!

As for the cooling fans, I just use 4 Coolman/Coolmoon 120mm fans from China. Plugged them all in a hub plus a led strip.

The Corsair AIO doesn't have rainbow RGB but the metal plate reflect the light nicely, same with the GPU.

I gave in and purchased a pair of Trident Z RGB and they are just so beautiful! Compliment my build perfectly!

Found a local guy who does custom cables which helps a lot with the spacing as you can find in the pictures below.

Thanks for reading!
