My Gold --- update: Light effects

[Solidarity]

Now that rads and fans have been mounted, I really can't wait for more progress.

Tray mounted. Working on the hdd stands now, as they needed a few coats of clear paint.

what the mind of man can accomplish!!!! Well done mate

Only one answer- It looks so gorgeous, like it's been made by best jewelry and engineer at same time.

This feels like a new step in the luxury. Now PC is not only device but can be an object of excitement.

I'm not a fan of gold. But this looks natural and organic. Exceptional combination.

Have you got a dedicated office where it will live?

 

[Azurite]

Thanks people.

Sheroo, i need to re-decorate some furnitures in the living room. Im using todays cornerspot but i need 30-40cm more space and i also need to take down three shelfes from the wall and mount them again so they are in line with sofa

Will show you the spot later when its more ready.

I recieved a package today from Performance-ps's.com and i also been out buying wires so i can make my own cables. Its dinnertime now but i'l update with some pics later tonight.

 

[iLikeGreeeeen]

you never fail to amaze me, azurite. simply awesome!

 

[PetrolHead247]

Looking absolutely stunning. Keep up the awesome work!

 

[Azurite]

Package arrived from performance-pc's.

Two x-stations and a replacement nzxt led cable. Got a new one because one of the ones i ordered had a very short power cable.

Many types of pinns. Heres pinns for leds/reset/power, 4-pin molex, fan pinns, 24 & 8-pinns/6-8-pinn pcie.

The led pinns are tiny as hell.

Some terminal precrimped wires. I just ordered a few incase if i run into problems crimping my own.

Crimping tool.

White, orenge and blue leds 3mm-5mm

20 meter black cable.

Oh and i also got 4l more with destilled water and some new tools for different purposes.

 

[Azurite]

1'st white 5mm led is finnished.

Those pinns are soooo tiny but i managed to do it after a litle struggle. I almost jumped over to the terminal crimped wires, but im glad i didnt give up.

The wire im using should have been a litle thinner, but i bought the thinnest they had at the store today. Np as long as they get crimped on hard and that they stick. I hope i find a rythm and good technique for this because i need many more.

definitely the best build log i have ever seen, Azurite you are flipping awesome cant wait to see this finished.

 

[wassupdoc]

Impeccable work as always

what are all these leds for? haven't you already lit up the inside?

 

[yassarikhan786]

Nice work as always buddy and you gotta love the Arsenal mug in the background.

 

[TMaksimov]

It looks mighty fine, excellent job. Might I suggest you think about sound deadening though as the fan noise is very likely to resonate quite a lot in those cavernous internals! Again, great job dude!

Thanks

. Im doing my best tbh, and learning a lot when gaining experience,

Impeccable work as always

Thanks dude. Im lightning up on backside of motherboard. You know when you go on the backside and its always so damm dark that you cant see where to plug into? basicly thats what im doing something with. The rest of the leds are for both resorvoirs and the Raystorm block. Making white, orange and blue ones, so i will check out how the different colours look.

Nice work as always buddy and you gotta love the Arsenal mug in the background.

Go Gunners

I've got 3 AFC mugs so theres a high chance you see them again, lol

Thanks. No way in hell im sounddampening the inside. You know how bad that would look?

. Im using 14 dba 72cfm fans and low fpi rads and also using a fancontroller. I can turn down fans til they stop, so this system will be very quiet.

Tested first two leds and they look nice and.....working

These two wont be sleeved since they will light up I/O shield/gpus in the back, and wiring will go underneath. Its black wiring but i do think rest of the leds will look better sleeved so im going to sleeve them.

 

[circit]

those are looking nice great job!

 

[sheroo]

Have you thought about a wall mounted monitor? Will your peripherals be wireless?

 

[Azurite]

Have you thought about a wall mounted monitor? Will your peripherals be wireless?

Yeah ive been looking into wallmount for some time now. Havent decided yet on that issue so we'll see what i come up with. I got wireless keyboard and mouse but when i game i use a wired Logitech G500. I'm gonna do some effort in hiding all cables from monitor, router, external hdd, blue ray amd so on when it is finnished. I know about some sort of plastic channel i can route cabels trough, so we will see

 

[wassupdoc]

Nice idea, inspired by the NZXT switch?

 

[MrWizard]

I am a master carpenter going on 25+ years now and i just wanted to say that you have done a wonderful job on this build. All i can say now is MORE pic's!!!
