crap shit fuck...comp

[ByronTheBulb]

GPU finally came. took longer than expected to put everything together. my sad attempt at cable management took up most of my time.

tried to start up the comp. no display, but keyboard + mouse lights eventually lit up.
also, not too sure if i saw red lights from the mobo. no beeps though.

initially i thought i forgot to put the standoffs. lucky for me, i found out my case (corsair 400R) comes with preinstalled standoffs.

so now i'm just puzzled. care to help, atg-ers?

haha, i was being sarcastic about the cable management. i tried to make it neat, but it took too much time, so i said fuck it. stephen said my cables were shit hahaha

You can't post pictures without telling us what you put in there. That's the best part for me. Wire management is a pain. I spent 3 hours working on my HTPC today just on wire management.

Nice looking Byron. The only suggestion is to get a 8 pin power extension cable and run it behind the motherboard.
