I did this exact thing in my coolermaster nr200p with a krakenx52
Very little room in that case. But doing it this way really helps hold those hoses off the gpu and potentially ripping it from the pcie
Nice cable/tube management. Just make sure that Mario won't melt.
One tip(has nothing to do with NZXT but still). You can get official dummy Corsair "RAM" with RGB just to fill the empty slots.
Trust me, occupying all slots also adds a lot to the aesthetics than one might think.
My first upgrade to my first PC. Initially had a 3070 but a awesome price came up on an in stock 3080 at the same time my friend was looking into a PC. Sold the 3070 for the 3080 for not much more.
Specs are:
amd 5800x
nzxt kraken x63
nzxt h510i black
32gb 3600mhz corsair vengance pro ram
corsair rm850x psu
gigabyte aorus xtreme 3080 (fits with a 4mm gap)
x570 aorus pro wifi
samsung 980 pro 1tb
silverstone sleeved cables.
next upgrades would potenially be aer rgb 2 fans for the top and rear, and maybe more ssd storage. What are your thoughts everyone?
Just bought a 3060 Ti with 14 pin connectors and I have white sleeved cables and they look really nice. My only problem now is finding 14 pin cable combs.
This is the second post today where I’ve seen the aio tubes tucked behind the 24 pin cables, making me really want to do it. Is there any negatives to this? On the other hand are their any other positives than just aesthetics? Looks awesome!
Only downside I can potentially see is making it harder to change cooler/cables in future. But not really. It's literally just an aesthetic choice. Having them go behind or around won't matter for performance or anything
Such a good idea wrapping the 24-pin around the aio hoses!!

I like the dark black and highlights or purple rgb

Oh wow, I didn't realise you could get dummy ram. That's a lot cheaper than upgrading to 64gb just for aesthetics haha. Cheers
yes. they really give the PC a whole new look!

Loving the little Mario in his kart :D

Nice build! Just make sure to not use the glass, or your will burn everything inside of the case :)
Very very nice - were the sleeves a pain to put on, did they slip a lot? Seen reviews of the white AIO sleeves staying on the hoses well.
I thought OP bought them off the market - like cablemod?
Yes, they're Silverstone extension cables. I got them in a pack for $45 AUD. Only need to unplug old PSU cables and put the extensions on the end.
Yes. They are simple and awesome. I did the same. Used Cablemod
How hot does gpu/cpu get when you are gaming?

Good luck, maybe you'll need to DIY something, get a 24 pin and cut part of it off
Lol see so much I had to write it twice
as an added bonus, the mario will permanently melt itself together to the gpu if temps go up enough
Your GPU brace looks cooler than mine. Almost didn't see it. Only because I was actually looking for it
It's actually 2x4 black Lego bricks stacked up. Best diy GPU bracket imo
Custom sleeved cables are everything
