I've got a Thermaltake Armor that I think is going on it's 4th year here. I'm a huge TT fan, I am thinking this might be my next case:

It's so sleek and clean. I like it. Don't think I'd ever buy it, but I've always had a sweet spot for this case as well..

I've got a TT Water 2.0 cooling system. I've thought about a whole system for cards and all but adds up too quick and I just don't feel like doing the maintenance and setup, lol.

I have did stuff like that to iphone users. Lol. Just messed with them. Ask them how there 1950s technology works. Ask if they need to connect to itunes before making a call. Lol.

The biggest this the mega loses is the air gestures. Plus few other things like mulitscreen. I got the S4 Active cs its water resistant. Which is good since I spend lot time drinking or at the pool drinking. They say you can drop it in and it be ok. Ive yet to try it. Lol. But I have an otter box also.

I did a build for a friend a few years back with a Thermaltake Soprano - great case for the money!

Air gestures is where can answer by waiving hand, read a message without touching etc.

Holy hell!! Thats a serious build. I would love to go with something like that, but I am limited on space where my tower is at my desk. The case I get can't be over 20.5" tall... so I have to go with a mid tower. Thinking about this one:

For a no holds barred build, the mountain mods cases are sweet.

Now if you will just get rid of that AMD crap, you will have a solid system.

Lol dual 7970s are where it's at! Killer bang for buck.

CPU is A 3770k @4.8ghz, cooled by a peltier assisted Watercooling setup( two Black Ice GTX gen 2 480 quads, dual MCP655s pumps, 150watt TEC, dual bay res). Idles at 0*c and loads in the 40s.

GPUS have a separate loop - modded CPU water blocks on each with a AMS 280 rad, Phobya tube res, and 655 pump.

Overkill lol.

Definitely overkill.. but a sweet setup nonetheless. I have always had a phobia of a liquid leak on my nice electronics.

Have you seen the mineral oil setups? Pretty neat

Here is a link to one:

FI? No way. 60's at a minimum, 80's would be better.

Yes. A&A's full kits come w/ 60's and it's not uncommon to max out the 60's and need 80's. Even on the lowest boost pulley.

This guy in the M6 and corvette thread keeps trying to defend his use of ricer math. I will continue harassing him for lolz.

Damn I just read a lot of info where people ran 42lb's fine up to 550rwhp fine with boost... Maybe I should get some 60's. What are good set of 60's to get? Easy to tune and direct fit?

I'm getting excited seeing what I have to look forward to when I get the ST. They put down ~225whp and ~260lb/ft of torque stock, and a tune boosts those numbers nicely. I'm thinking stock for a while, and filter/tune when I get a little antsy.

60's will be just as easy to tune, are direct fit, and pretty much the same price as 42's. 80's jump up in price a little typically, but again, won't be trouble at all tuning, and are direct fits as well. People typically go 80's to not screw with an injector swap until they pushing over 700 wheel.

I was told 400$ for 63lb injectors, as far as tuning I have no idea
