Corsair need to release these fan in white
what do you think?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
start painting
first phase backplate, little plate on waterblock and power supply
sorry for the pics but I will not bring my camera in my paint booth lolllll :lawl:



second phase will be , motherboard block, icy dock, cpu block with plastidip
and third and final phase will be , Aquaeroe 5 (plasti dip), reservoir support, fan screw and other little thing with primer and real paint
Update:
some items are now painted
First Fannblade case Feet:
WOW! they are nice
and these feet is a must on all build/mods

Poseidon-plastidip5_zpsae9159e6.jpg




I painted my CPU waterblock
and a way better than black for my Red Poseidon, imagine with red coolant, again WOW




and finally, GPU backplate, they will be install wirh red screw


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update:
first
i want to Give a big ***FAIL*** to EK
i tried in 2 diferent case and same thing (caselabs M8 and LD PC-V4)
i cant lock the gpu in PCIe slot because the block on GPU sit on Motherboard water block screw......serious??????? why not use the same screw as the plate on GPU (Flat head screw)
pics


and same thing for the second card lolll



anyway
go to Update
some pics










Last Update for this week, need return working on the road for a couple of weeks

painting 2 x 360 rad
cable management
installing fan and rad
real leak test and done

Your builds just always look so elegant it should be illegal. This is becoming a piece of beauty once again. You just never really disappoint, do you? ;)
 
I'm following you everywhere Snef! I'm e-stalking your builds on every forum you post on. :D Fantastic work as usual, and great pics too!
 
I love red and white builds, your cables look great, and you've done an amazing job on those fans :)
 
Hi guys
little update on my Red Poseidon
still missing sleeving for USB cable for Aquaero and some little things and a spectacular power cable
but have some pics with rads and painted fans
I put some fan grill, nit sur I will keep them
need your input on this

First, Fannblade Feet with plastidip and red oil-seal, IMHO a perfect match


pics from left, no, right heuuuu, I really don't know witch side is :ROFL:
with a HUGE Strider 1500 and all cable, not enough room for all cable, need to do some magic

other side, relace 3.5 hard drive cage for pump top and pump, you can see my QDC

Top View,ahhh White, red and Black for ROG theme, I love it

this pics is perfect for a EK publicity, I think

I really like EK supremacy painted white with red coolant
some other cool shoot






pretty close to the end of this project
cant wait for new case , and working on new project (Sand of God)
Thanks,
 
Snef, stop doing this to me ! Now i will like to go back to watercooling and get my hands on some things. But i dont have the money anymore, damn you ! :P
