You who seen me before know that i´m soft for supercomputers and have begun to do alot of scratchbuilds. When i saw a article about D-Wave X2 i fell in love, how cool is this. Instantly i started to gather information about the X2 and planning it out in Sketchup to get a grasp of what size is...

What? If you are into vlogging and Youtube you may already know Casey Neistat, one of the bigger Youtubers right now and growing fast. He is a awsome film maker and DIY guy, check him out! -> https://www.youtube.com/user/caseyneistat Casey got my attention a couple of month ago with his hacking...

I bought one just to check the case out, and i got stuck. (Some of you do know i work at Bitfenix, i use other brands too ;) ) So i was thinking, i need a small workstation and this was perfect. Found a Gigabyte Z97n-wifi itx board from earlier projects and a 4690k CPU. Other hardware includes...

After 2 months of hard work without any modding, its time for a scratch build :) Hardware Intel i7 5960x Still planning on other parts. Cooling Not sure if i will go full water or use a really good air cooler. GPU is probably going to be watercooled. I do not have a big window on the case...

Xigmatek Nebula transformation Spelled the Title wrong... bingo :) Bought this one just to check it out for a review, but i got stuck with it, really like the form and size of it and plenty of space on the insides. First up, some pics of the case. My idea isnt clear yet, so no project...

Well, not again huh ? :) Need a HTPC for my living room. Never found a case i wanted, so i took a white Prodigy i had ad remembered its pretty easy to mod it. == HARDWARE == Zotac G41 ITX motherboard Intel E6600 cpu 8GB ram PicoPSU Will try on the onboard graphics at first, if i need more...

Well, i may have too much projects going on but i got curious on the Corsair AIR540, so i ordered one. This gonna be a soft mod (compared to my others). The name "Myria" is something popped up in my head, dont know where i got it from :P Things on the todo list. X is done. - Paint all meshes...

Well, this is gonna be a quick quick weekend mod. I already have my workstation up and when i looked at the Bitfenix Shadow i liked the shapes. So this little front panel mod is about combining the Bitfenix Prodigy and Shadow. Well, let´s go! My workstation right now Specs AMD A10 6800k 16gb...

A quick guide for you who wants to use bigger PSU´s in the Prodigy than standard 160mm length. Making this extension makes the HDD cage unusable. This is more of a guide than a project log, but i may help someone :) Some measurements, this is for a 180mm PSU, gives me roughly 40mm for cable...

The YAPP - Yet Another Prodigy Project Whilst building my other stuff i tend to crawl into my workstation and "lend" stuff to fit to my different projects. And now waiting for delivery of more plastics i decided to do a fast-mod. So this fast project is not going to be a heavy build as i...

Cray supercomputers are probably not a new name for anyone. As on my other builds i make something strange or odd, so will this be I´m not sure yet if i´m going with a ITX motherboard for it or taking a NAS and remove the case from it. The future will tell I have eight 2TB S-ata drives...

Wargames WOPR desk computer From the movie Wargames i bring you WOPR. Love this movie, and love the WOPR. Started planning this a half year ago, tried to contact people in the US having some info about the real model to get measurements and color codes etc. Got some good info and now its time...

After some searching for new desk i got the idea to build my own. Earlier i had a room as a office, but since i have twins at 3 yrs i want to be closer to them when they play and run around. I can do some work and see them at the same time. (i work from home and i do not have any...

Yet another crazy Swede with a case mod. I was looking for a case for my new workstation but i couldnt find anything i liked, so i bought a Bitfenix Shinobi (standard, not XL) to modify to my taste and needs. Hardware is not ordered yet and i really dont know what to put in the box, but it...
