wow thats stunning

I'm really fond of the marble, loved the way it looked on Hanovers Green maleshi. I'm really looking forward to how this will come out!

Todays question.......

.....do I paint the block hold down?

 

[RadeonHDx]

If you do decide to paint the block, can I recommend that you paint the metal marbled black and the black plastic in the luminous green/yellow colour just to keep some consistency.

 

[Bartacus]

Painting that block would be a tough choice for me. That thing is almost too pretty to mess with! If I were considering it, I'd probably try to grab some colored vinyl sticker stuff on the cheap (in green / black) and do some "test runs" with that, just to get a feel for what might work.

 

[RadeonHDx]

I wasn't saying that you should or shouldn't do it really, just trying to give an idea I had .

 

[B NEGATIVE]

All opinions are welcome and valid.

However,it would be a bit of a travesty to paint that MIPS beauty.

 

[Tripp]

Yeah I wouldn't paint the block it looks good as is

Leave it be!

 

[Greenback]

I would be on the leave the block as is bench, it's to nice to change

 

[tinytomlogan]

I think paint it - jury is out on the painted caps though

I wasnt sure either so its just vinyl Tom.

They do add a nice detail tho.

 

[RadeonHDx]

Personally I think the caps look pretty nice with the yellow.

 

[B NEGATIVE]

It does look much better with the GPU's in place....

 

[Tripp]

ohhhh its that time again

 

[paulstung]

+1 for painting it mate, it stands out like a saw thumb at the moment, you say the caps are vinyl ? could you not use that on the block too then ?

 

[Greenback]

I think making the block yellow would be to much considering it would be reflected in the gpu backplate. If I was to do anything it would be the ports on the block, but my own opinion is I like the block as is

We need to add a "super-like" on this forums.. such a common thing for B Negative to impress.
Looking good and it's not even done

So today was my birthday and what better way to celebrate than to finish up the motherboard and spray the matching Keyboard,in this instance the Corsair K65 tenkeyless (Pics will be forthcoming)

I also need to look at replacements for the MIPS hold down bolts as the stock ones are not pretty....

Seeing as no one will see the back,I had a little fun....

To tidy up the edge of the card PCB I used 1.5mm Vinyl,easily removed it the card requires RMA!

And finally,I welcome E22 to this build! Nate has supplied me with my usual Ultraclear again,It is my usual for a very good reason...
