WOW. Cant believe I didnt see this thread before now. VERY nice. Congrats!

The only thing I would have done differently....is the name.

Thats NOT a "44 Magnum"...its a "50 Action Express"...or maybe even a ".500 S&W Magnum" ( a FULLY LOADED 44 mag round will fit INSIDE the 500 brass). :P

edit:

44 mag vs 50 AE



44 mag vs 500 mag:

My System Specs

Default Blood Work
Picked up a LSI MegaRaid 9240-8i to have more sata drive ports
will be fun to test what I get out of 6-8 vertex 3's in raid 0
but long term will wind up in my home server as JBOD

Mounted the rez on the psu side

Just keeps getting better and better. Using the LSI MegaRaid 9240-8ijust for JBOD seems like a waste, but cost obviously isn't an issue lol. You should add it to your loop. Take off that passive heatsink and put a universal waterblock on it
