[KiiYzOo]

Hey guys, after my last build, I decided that I wanted to have a build that was a little different to other projects out there, so I decided to get a skelly

So my new skelly arrived at around 20 past 11 this morning, so I've had most of the day to play with it

I'll start off by saying that this is an awesome case

I love the finish,build quality and overall looks of this amazing case

case after first unboxing it, it looks like it's dark outside but that's just because of the flash

Motherboard fitted to the removable motherboard tray

This case is really easy to work with, because of things like being able to slide the part that holds all the components

This is where the pump is, although it is the other way round just now, and that is just twisting of the pipe

Love this button

case before leak testing

need some more tubing, as that tube from the rad to the cpu just fits with a little kinking

filling the loop

loop filled, leak tested and bled

I had to bend a couple of fins on my graphics card's heatsink, I did this earlier and didn't realise, and had to bend at least five fins back into shape

Skelly in her new home, sssshh she's scared

There she is

That's all for today, but I'm planning to:

paint everything that is black, orange

get some orange fluid

get some uv or orange led strips

either watercool my 460 or upgrade and watercool that card

fit my second rad

light up my res

maybe upgrade my cpu and motherboard

braid my psu

maybe other things but I can't think just now

specs:

i3 540 @ stock just now, my motherboard is very annoying for overclocking

msi p55a-g55

msi cyclone gtx 460 768mb

xfx 650w xxx modular psu

corsair xms3 1600mhz

1tb hitachi hard drive

watercooling specs:

EK HF supreme waterblock

EK compressions

EK 250mm res

Hardware Labs Black Ice® GT Stealth Lite 360mm Triple Radiator

Phobya DC12-260 12v pump

3x Xigmatek XLF 120mm LED Case Fans

Hope you guys enjoy

That's all for today, but I'm planning to:

paint everything that is black, orange

I would change that statement to 'paint everything that isn't black, orange'

Also I would never build a rig on a carpet due to the risk of static build up and discharge, I guess you got lucky

But the main point I want to get across is why would you build such a sexy rig and then hide it behind your monitor LOL

 

[KiiYzOo]

no the theme is white and orange

the rig behind my monitor is only because I can't fit it on my desk any other way

 

[rishisen]

very original

Its nice to see something that stands out from the crowd once in a wile

 

[KiiYzOo]

thanks guys

***WARNING - 26 pics inbound***

So, over the last couple of days I've been working on my revised loop

I finished this morning and I just uploaded the pics now, enjoy

that was it for the night, as going to see Al Murray at the festival, I didn't have much time left

before filling

after filling and leak testing

finished bleeding and decided to take more pics

side panels with holes drilled to allow for the rad brackets

now back in place

had to put the 460 in the lower slot so I didn't have to cut the case

and that's it, thanks for looking guys

 

[SieB]

I like it

 

[KiiYzOo]

Thanks

 

[AMDFTW]

shouldent that res be full or does it not matter

 

[KiiYzOo]

I don't think it matters

 

[KiiYzOo]

just decided to do a run of prime and msi kombuster together, yes I know the cpu and gpu are at stock, but I'm still impressed with the temps, especially with the 460

 

[G-Dubs]

I've said it beofre and i'll say it again.

Very Nice indeed.

 

[KiiYzOo]

thanks
