I have been waiting for inspiration to finish this rig for about a year now. All it took was spring break and a few cold beers to make it happen! This isn't anything crazy, just a sleeved psu and some watercooling, but I think it turned out pretty sweet looking and wanted to share!
I apologize in advance for the picture quality, my point and shoot doesnt do too well in my apartment...
Before...

So a little "Renewal" process...

I always hear how painful paracord is to work with. After this build, I will never use anything else! It really wasn't bad at all to sleeve with, and it really looks amazing compared with the plastic PET sleeving I have been using. Not to mention cheap!

That is a Corsair TX850 psu. I took out the black fan, and put in a white LED NZXT 140 in to replace it. I also had to de-badge it because the yellow and black stickers really stuck out.

And in goes the tubing. That res actually pressure fits into the top of the case. I have secured it in with some mounting zip ties, but there was really no need...

And there she is all lit up!

I cut out new sides out of smoked acrylic, but instead of 1/4 inch smoked, I am going to tint the back of a piece of clear. It looks so mean with smoked, but I feel like this is a little too dark...

There are a few minor things I plan to do with this rig, like an orange filter for the honeycomb 5.25 blank out, and I am going to cut out some dark acrylic to cover the LEDs and wires on either side of the rad. Other than that, I am pretty much finished!

Bro, do you even LAN?
Nice rig. Very nice indeed. The cabling job is really slick.
