Hey guys and welcome to my In Win G1 project log!

I've been busy working on my Thermaltake CaseMOD Invivational build lately and as that is getting close to completion it's time to start a new project!

I have been very excited for this project for a while and it's great to finally be able to start working on it!

For those in Australia and going to PAX AU, you will be able to see it in the Nvidia area with MSY as one of the Nvidia Battlestation rigs doing 4K G-Sync demos!

I want to say a huge thanks to all the sponsors which includes Gigabyte, In Win, Avexir, EKWBs, RamCity, Primochill and Icemodz!

Here are the specs:

Case - In Win 909
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-Z170X Gaming G1
CPU - Intel i7 6700K
Memory - 4 x 4GB Avexit Blitz White LED 2400Mhz DDR4 Memory
GPU - 2 x Gigabyte GTX980ti Gaming G1
SSD - 2 x 500GB Crucial MX200 SSDs
M.2 - 2 x 512GB Samsung SM951 PCI-E M.2 SSDs
PSU - Corsair AX860

Cables - Icemodz Fully Custom Individually Sleeved Cables

LEDs - Icemodz RGB LED Strips

Radiators - EK-CoolStream PE 360 & EK-CoolStreak PE 240
Fans - 7 x EK-Vardar F4-120ER (2200rpm) White
Pump - EK-D5 Vario
Reservoir - PrimoChill 240mm CTR Phase II High Flow D5 Enabled Reservoir System
Fittings - PrimoChill Rigid Revolver Compression Fitting sets of red and black, Various Bitspower angle fittings, pass-throughs and extensions

CPU Block - EK-Supremacy EVO - Nickel Plexi
GPU Block - EK-FC980 GTX Ti WF3 - Nickel Plexi with clear Plexi inlet/outlet and backplates

This will be a black, red and white themed system based around the awesome Gigabyte Z170X Gaming G1 motherboard!

I want to start off with some pics of the beautiful In Win 909 case!

Such a nice case - can't wait to see how it turns out!

Liking these cases, curious what you're doing with it!

I love this case, so much potential for epic builds. Look forward to seeing what you do.

ooh as someone who wants that case this is going to be worth a follow :D

As another person who wants that case, you've got another follower here.

Thanks a lot for subbing guys! Hope you will enjoy this one, I know I'm very excited to be working on this project
 
Really interested to see how you pull this off. Love the look of the case, yet wonder if there is enough room for air to flow in it.

Take care and keep up the good work.

Love this case, will you be modifying it at all?

I can't wait to see what you do with this. :)

Cheers mate :D Yup definitely modifying it

Thanks mate!

The case is definitely good looking. The way the air flow works is that it pulls air in from the bottom gap there where there is a dust filter with a very strong magnet. The front fans pull the air from there as well as there is room right in front between the frame and the panel. So the bottom and front are meant to be intakes and then push the air out the back :)

I should have an update up shortly with the case out of the frame as I will get it powdercoated :D

Hey guys!

Here is the case without the outside frame. I will start to give it a little bit of modding love!

HDD cages were riveted in so I had to drill them out!

Hey guys!

I took the jig saw to the top of the case and expanded the hole in the top. It came out pretty good minus a minor slip when I was fining the cut edges.

The case is ready for powder coating now though. Will be a pretty cool colour if anyone can guess :D

Top radiator correct?

I reckon dayglo orange lol

The res will go there. Extended the hole in order to get pass-through fittings there. It will be covered with acrylic and should give a nice glow. The reason I'm not going to do the pass-through fittings straight through the case panel is because this build will be displayed at PAX AU and for that the graphics cards will remain air cooled. I will watercool them after and if I need to change the loop and passthrough locations I don't have to drill through the case and potentially ruin the powdercoating. An acrylic panel is easily replaced :)

Hi guys!

I present to you the Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming G1 motherboard! This thing is a beast and I'm so excited to have it going in the system!

With 4-way SLI support, dual PCIe Gen3 x4 M.2 support, integrated watercooling with G1/4" threads, PCIe metal shielding, USB Type-C connection and USB 3.1 support as well as an awesome multi-colour LED trace path that even lights up the rear I/O shield, this is in my opinion one of the best looking and feature packed Z170 motherboards out there at the moment!

That is a very sexy motherboard. :D Been thinking about trying to get one for my next build.

I have a question for you, do you happen to know what the motherboard water passage is made from? It looks like the 9/14 threaded sections are plated but what about the inside?

Sure is sexy! I'm not sure about the water passage but I can find out for you :)
