Nice glowy bits Would be interesting to see the system powered on with the room lights off.

How are you finding it in terms of performance, noise from the fans/GPU, and so forth?

this is all lights on...but they can be adjusted to dimmer or off altogether.

the performance is outstanding , especially in 1080...170 fps in doom on everything ultra.

noise is fine..the pwm fans run near near silent and the temps have never gone above 40c in the case. And the gpu is a little more noisey under full load..but thats to be expected.

overall extremely happy.
