lookin juicy, breh. im going all heatkiller for this new build. currently broke as fukk as i had to buy new tires and i did some remodeling in my computer room. once i get a second 980 ti, im getting my heatkiller blocks for those. maybe i should do a build log here huh? that setup is temporary - im doing acrylic tubing with angled fittings all around instead of doing bends. the qdc's will go on the bottom and pedestal of my case which im using ek zmt tubing.

gentle typhoons crew unite :salute:

I actually was ready to go acrylic once, purchased a heat gun, the whole 9 and failed miserably. I took everything I could back to Micro Center and got about 90% of what I spent back. Next time I redo my loop I'm going to pop some QDC's wherever I can hide them. I can imagine that shyt makes dealing with your loop so much easier. One day I may revisit acrylic since I seen some dudes build that was just insane.:ahh:

Here's the gallery to it,

:banderas:

Word, only the finest of fans can be used, GT the gawds. I have 16 of them bad boys in there.

Man u don't need a acrylic loop. Honestly, I regret buying all these acrylic fittings. But now that I have em, I have no choice but to use em. The qdcs are soooooo essential for me breh; it's unreal. Way better than a drain valve and it makes your loop so convenient - No need to drain your entire loop.

I missed out on free games :wtf:

Probably for the best. Never played a Metal Gear and the last thing I need is another 120+ hour distraction :whoa:

Can anyone recommend a reasonably price ($150-199) 500 GB SSD for a Macbook pro 2012

:patrice:I found this on amazon?
Samsung 850 EVO 500GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E500B/AM)

I dont even know if I should make the upgrade because I'm hearing some B.S about TRIM, Yosemite and future updates.

should I just play it safe and get the
OWC 480GB Mercury Electra 6G SSD?

I scrolled down the page fast and thought it was a picture of some custom engine at a quick glance. I thought the @itsyoung!! and @HookersandIceCream car beef got in here.

Apple finally stopped the bs and you can enable trim force.

Get the Samsung, even though OWC drives are designed fire Macs and don't even need trim.

amazon.com/gp/product/B00HJZJI84/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

would that cable be adequate to transfer certain files?
