Notes

This computer has been a labor of.......Love!?  I surprise myself every once in a while with a computer build and find out that it's best to just start with all "brand new" parts.  This build was kind enough to assist me in identifying a failing PSU.  

Damn thing wasn't even three years old and it was done for.  PSU behind the scheme was a 1500w Silverstone ST-1500....  was kind of depressing since I truly thought that my TITANS were bad and did a cross ship at the same time I bought an evga nex1500. 

Putting it all together and finally realizing that it was the PSU all along even during my last build hence I parted it out for $$ for this one. 

Now my dilemma do I return these and get my money back, or rock the shit out of them since they're bought and paid for.

Update: I've obviously chosen to stick with the four TITANS and it has been amazing!

Still pushing everything here as my new upgrades have all come together.  Just a short while until I put on the good 'ol water blocks for the sexy TITANS!!!!

Rad/fan grills are very interesting/unique. I dig it! ;) Seems a rare thing to be one of the few who enjoy "Monster" case builds. These day seems to cater to the "mini-pc's" . Check mine out when you get a chance bro ;)

Yeah guys thanks for the mad props for sure!! This thing has been amazing and I can't even begin to explain what it's like being able to be in presence of this thing! My daughter (28months) sits next to it sometimes and tells me how pretty and beautiful it is! I have one more pic I added and will add more here soon. Shoot, I'm just glad I got to get on the internet to begin with.
