blood red, interesting.

It is going to be a very red rig. Red motherboard, red RAM, red coolant, red cables. The coolant should look really nice inside the blocks my CPU and GPU's all have transparent blocks to show the coolant colour and I'm using transparent tubing too.

System is built, I'm using it to post this very message. It's really fast! - The only thing I need now is the Mushkin 32GB of memory which Aria still do not have in stock. Once I get those it will be completely finished. Until then I'm using 4GB of OCZ. This memory is so shit I have 12GB of it but some of the sticks are bad so I can't use those. Annoying. Also one of my GTX 480 blocks is completely corroded it sort of looks like rust. I'm not happy about that so I've left one out of the system for the time being. I'm not too bothered about it because Tri-SLI doesn't work that great anyway and I'm thinking I'll upgrade to dual GTX 680 4GB's in the future.

Well my RAM finally came today and Aria didn't even tell me they had been dispatched and did not send me any kind of tracking info! - I was pretty shocked at that. But they were well worth the wait. They look fucking amazing. The package was quite heavy a lot heavier than I expected so I was like wtf is this.. I was surprised that 8 Modules could weigh this much I've never had RAM this heavy before the heatsinks are very thick must be made out of steel.



And OMG they have BLACK PCB's instead of the yucky green! - I know you can't really see it once it's in the system but I'd know.



And here is just a quick shitty pic of them installed and powered up.
