Notes

Needed more space so moved some components from the Antec 300 and added the X79 mobo and CPU. I was actually a little surprised at just how big this case is. But it has plenty of room and cable management is a breeze (pun intended). 4.5 GHZ was for benching; Running at 4.2/1.3V to keep heat down.

With todays games, there's no need to overclock this rig. Nice man +1

@mndmtx Sorry for the very slow reply but I had forgotten about this until today :P The GPUs would run the benchmarks fine, but I would sometime get crashing in games and even more often in folding. So, I usually run them at stock which is still pretty darn nice. @rolandpruitt Thanks @Muromets I like this case so much I may actually build my next machine in it, too.

Nice GPUs overclock on air! I also love my Thor V2 -- plenty of room / growth options.

very nice I have two 680 classified, is your GPU stable at this clocks? is connecting the sli with sli connector slot closer to GPU is better or not?
