wah!
1kw psu? overkill bro
also, ur ram slot in the correct place? use cpu-z to check if it's dual channel and symmetrical or not. if not, means ur ram put wrong slots already.

lol ur system will draw max 350w of juice at load and at idle around 100w+

really advise u to downgrade ur psu unless u plan to do xfire of 4870x2 or gtx295.. IF ur mobo can support.

my 2 cents bro, no offence.

everything in a perfect slot.

thanks for ur advice..but downgrading is NOT a good option.
i've used 500Watt before, but when i'm gaming my system will shut down and restart..that was when i'm using 3870.
plz dont be so sure bout my rig power consumption.

Future plan is always there. i got peace of mind if wanna upgrade my system..no need to think bout power.

LOL just noticed too, think thats the priciest stuff overall of his rig

may be TS want to Triple SLi, or CF HD 4870x2..and oc'ing his rig

good reason to own it, i cant see any reason to offense his/her decision.

bro,
sorry to attack u again, but i think too many people has a misconception bout PSU.

How much your system actually need?

Yes, there's not harm buying a super PSU, however every psu has an efficiency curve. We want our system max load and idle load to fall at the highest range of the efficiency curve. Here's your efficiency curve of HX1000W (look at the 2nd graph, efficiency vs wattage)

Well, again,there's no harm using that psu on your system, but why pay so much more and get lesser efficiency?

No ill intention, just so you know.

bro .. did you paint the outside of the casing?

CM painted black .. then you paint again black ? means to spray over the Cooler Master paint ?

bro, is it hard 2 cut the acrylic?? wat u use 2 cut it??

no i dont, outside paint remain like that. i paint inside only.
not so hard if u using proper tool. I'm using jigsaw.

and what do you mean by "applying clear coat" ?

i don't know what it means ..

it is clear paint. no colour.. Clear coat paint increases the paint durability, gloss and resistance to harmful environmental effects. Usually we applying clear coat over a colored base coat paint. in my case, black colour paint.

Primer > Colour Coat > Clear Coat

what the hell is a Primer ?

Colour Coat = Black Spray

Clear Coat = Transparent Coloured Spray which makes the surface looks shiny ? as in a layer of shinning coating ?
