Some lesson i learn from this ITX build.
-gonna be extra careful when buying parts.
-gonna be extra careful too which part to install first :D
-Always prepare a USB thumbdrive with Window OS install :X (ok, for this part, i just use back my old HDD&SSD without formatting. It works but the window will go crazy. XD)

Currenlty using an budget 750ti gpu. wish to change to something better in the near future but the problem is....can a 1080 fits in? :eek:

Make sure the GPU thickness is 42mm or lesser as the PSU/GPU not much clearance. How are your gpu load temps now?

This part looks like as though an octopus just rape your pc inside :s13:

but why dun u keep those power cables u aint gonna use??? :s22:

hahaha the fact is, im using those cable (less the GPU coz 750ti can power up from the mobo alone.)!
What u see there is what im require to use :D

did u mount d15s wrong way? the cooler is asymmetrical, and is usually mounted leaning away from gpu slot (with fan on rear tower by default).

urs look like leaning towards gpu slot, and fan on front tower, blowing wrong direction...

according to the instruction, it can be mount on either way. but in real world experience, it really depends on your mobo. for my case, the Asus impact has some space restriction for my cooler which i am force to mount it leaning towards the gpu. i have been checking the temp every now and then, so far so good :s13:
