Just took this quick crappy pic with my phone. I won't be doing any building tonight, it's way too late to put them in. But tomorrow I'll be doing the build and I'll post proper photos of each card and the blocks and new fittings I got.

What you're seeing:
GTX 780 in its plastic casing, behind it is the box I just opened to get it from, below is the 2nd GTX 780 not opened. On the right those two white boxes are the EK Titan Blocks.

Yeah sorry, I was going to do the upgrade today but just a lot of stuff came up. I've still not opened the 2nd card or put them in my system. Tomorrow (Friday) I do intend to do the build and stuff, before I do that I'll take proper pics with my DSLR and post those.

Sorry but I didn't have time today to take the DSLR photos I wanted to do. Instead I just used my iPhone 5. The quality is not great but I'm sure you can see GTX 780's online. Here they are in my system though.

I did end up changing all the clear tubing in my build because it was stained by the red coloured coolant I use. So that dusty piece of hose on the left that sticks out the back of the case was changed before I rebuilt the system.

This is why you buy Asus. I've had my Asus Rampage IV Extreme since March 2012, over a year now and it's still receiving substantial BIOS updates.

On the 2nd of September Asus released a new BIOS to support the 4960X, 4930K and 4820K. They also completely redesigned the entire interface of the BIOS adding lots of useful features including a favourites menu which lets you select any options in your BIOS and have them "pinned" to a favourites menu and you can modify any of those Favorited items in the favourite menu itself, basically constructing your own BIOS menu with any options from other menus.

One last thing I took a picture of was when you go to save the BIOS it actually lists all the changes you made, this is the first time I've seen anything like this on a BIOS check it out:

Even I don't know what all the options mean. I probably know about 1/6th of what all the overclocking options do. The rampage boards especially have so many options, there must be about 100 ram options alone and I only know what a handful of those even do.
