Ok here it is...finished building yesterday. XFX didn't give any Crossfire bridge which is stupid.
Waiting on the NZXT sleeved power supply cable adapter for a more cleaner look. ALSO THIS RIG IS FOR SALE!!!
Reasons for selling:
1) I read this forum and wanted to see what I could come up with for a more AESTHETIC looking computer. Dead serious. All black does look pretty sick.
2) And now I'm finished building it (not caring about looks) I want the ASUS P8Z68-V Pro Z68 mobo for the 3-way SLi support. I have 2 6870's in xfire (better performance) but I'd rather go 2x or 3x GTX560 in SLi for the better drivers.

nice looking rig.
I have a very similar setup with the same case.
Is that the Corsair H80 or H100 that you top mounted?

After going through this thread I'm tempted to build a new rig
This pic was taken a couple of years ago. Only difference is I swapped all case fans for Yate Loons, popped in a 2TB HD and switched my E8400 for a Q9550. Case is a CM 690. I think I did an OKAY job with the cable management
Might have to spoil myself this christmas

Dont get the SLI 560s though, for a variety of reasons I think you should stick to a single GTX580 instead.

@dealt
Wanna trade with my parts and I add cash? 
Interested in the AX750 and H100.
I have Antec TP650 (Modular) and H70 for partial trade.

Really admire the builds you guys have here, they look amazing.
Wish I had the money to invest on a nicer case and better mobo/cpu, but this is what
I have: |

Sorry but won't be selling/trading the parts
Those were the 2 parts I mainly built it around because the AX750 had all black modular cables and the H100 hid perfectly in the 650d case, leaving the mobo more exposed.

Operation HoboDesk™ almost complete.
- bought $6 slab of wood-like material from IKEA as-is
-bought 4x $5 VIKA CURRY table legs
-found out sheet of 'wood' was cheap for a reason, its a hollow (in most places) headboard for a MALM bedframe
-take thin but incredibly dense wooden-fibre desktop from old disassembled desk
-use that to strengthen top sheet of wood and provide mounting place for legs
I estimate the weight to be around 60 pounds. LOL. Makes my 27" monitor look tiny.
Now I'm just looking for a dollar store multi-coat hanger (ones that hook onto the top of doors). After I play with the brackets a bit I'll mount that to the underside of the desk , so I can do cable mgmt later with the surge protectors etc.

Every as-is item I've bought is damaged in ways that I would probably end up damaging myself if I had gotten it new.
