Cl0s3 impact

Hmm, I'm kinda torn since it covers up some of the sexiness on the block, but I still like how it squares the entire card. I think it looks great, but I also love the original block look. I don't think you're losing either way!
 
Can I be the one awkward bugger who swims against the tide, and say I like it more with the block as it comes?

That block is pure pornography. I'd do terrible things to it.

Terrible.
 
Bang tidy. Hadn't realised quite how pretty those AquaComputer blocks are, then squaring them off just improves the aesthetic. Lovely!
 
jesus those blocks are divine.. How can you change them?!

Remove the stainless hold down and use the inner as a template for the hole i need to cut.


Res bits have arrived,thanks to the guys at PARVUM for taking time out to quickly run these off for me. Hats of to Justin and Shaun!.

My favourite pick-up line.


:lol:

Sadly I gotta agree with Davva though. The mod itself is really nice, but I liked the original block better. Kind of like the way you want the bezels on your screen to be as thin as possible and not take up half the space.
 
Maybe I can make it even better?

It's nice, and a great idea :).

Not my choice of colour though, perhaps if it was clear acrylic (defeats the purpose lol) or even better, brushed stainless steel, that would look epic! I may even plagiarise your idea and the idea of using stainless for my 780ti's. If only there was stock of the black edition somewhere. I wonder where I could get stainless steel laser cut...
 
I like the block mod to be honest, prefer the sleeker lines you have created. Should look better once it is all painted up, so can't wait to see that. :)
 
The GPU shroud gets its first lick of paint.

And the face plate kindly cut for me by PARVUM.
Painting acrylic is a joyous thing,the finish comes out really good.

I loved this build at the start, now every time theres an update I get to see the same post on all the pages on bookface you spam it on.

Honestly takes the fun out reading the forum stuff now.


On topic the GPU face plate - all the screws are wonky

They are dictated by the holes that AC made,if they are wonky its because they are made wonky.
The corner holes are moved out slightly so they are central to the curve,the straight ones look like they are out because of it

Yeah,it annoys the hell out of me when i see others do it.....maybe i should just leave it on my page....

I think it looks best in the first picture where it appears to be a stealthy matte black.

Why does one screw seem to be missing?
