Case Mod Obsidian Carnage

[Cygnitr0n]

Hello Readers from the Bit-Tech Forum,

I'm building a new system for myself with the new Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z, the Obsidian Carnage.

My name is Stef (eng: Steve) and I'm from Holland and living in a town called Enschede.



It will be a Game-PC with a fat OC tuning! I didn't want a big tower so I looked arround for a mid tower. With this mATX motherboard, a Big Tower will lose the effect on a little motherboard. And there will be to much space. Space I don't want or need. So that why I bought the Corsair 650D.

I wanted a nice Case with fine lines in it. No "tierelantijnen" so as we call it in dutch. Corsair Obsidian 650D.



This build has no known plan, and I am still figuring out what to tho with this 650D. So I will update every once a while. I'm not gonna bother you anymore with lame text. See for yourself.
