Big white box

[Arganos]

Hiya guys. I have been having some fun modding around my case/cases so I thought to get some feedback from you guys. It used have only one case but I got little carried away. When I first built to xigmatek white knight midgard it had amd fx-6200, amd radeon hd 7770, asus m5a99x evo motherboard and processor was cooled by noctua nh-d14. So when I think about it that thing has gone quite big leaps forward to what it is now.


Parts I used for this were:
Processor: Amd fx-8320 @ 4,6 1,3Volts
Motherboard: Asus sabertooth 990fx r2.0
Graphics card: Amd radeon r9 290 @ stock
Ram: G.skill ripjaws x 1600 cl9 (Still needs to be painted white)
Psu: Corsair gs800 (I know it's way too much for this setup)
Case: Xigmatek white knight midgard x2

Cooling parts that went into this:
Pump: Laing D5 VPP655-T12
Processor block: EK supermacy acetal (Filled those circles and painted plastic part white and those thumbscrews aswell)
GPU block: EK-FC R9-290X full cover block with backplate
Rads: Alphacool nexXxos UT60 240mm
Alphacool nexXxos monsta 360mm
Fittings: Phobya 13/10mm straight compression fittings
Phobya 13/10mm 90 degree angle compression fittings
Phobya G1/4 90 degree dual rotary adapter
EK waterblocks G1/4 45 degree adapter
Fans: Arctic cooling F12

Looking at the photos I cant understand what the top section has been added for?

Once I get the money I will add up another rad up there but that will most likely around when broadwell will be released. Basically it was just to make it support as much rad space as possible.

You realise it probably wont lower your temps any more right?

I like the effort and the engineering gone in but you could have laid it out better and made it look a lot cleaner IMHO

It would've been so much easier to do with metal but I know it's not the best work in the world but I'm pleased with it

It's real nice bro.
Have you thought about sticking a little home server in the roof? Like maybe an AM1 with a couple of WD reds?

I don't really have the funds to do that but basically there would be enough space to make dual sided mobo tray lol. So no need to put it up in there
