NZXT Switch 810 Build/Mod Log

[Vicey]

Oh of course my bad I just assumed incorrectly that you were in the United Kingdom! - My bad for not reading your location under your profile.

Unfortunately I have no idea where you would source these parts in New Zealand and I'm not sure if Scan will ship there but I'm guessing they wont. I feel your pain living in NZ for stock of stuff I know how hard it can be to get specialist parts there due to its remoteness.

 

[PBaines]

Haha, na man, New Zealand and proud

no problem man,

yeah i know right, its such a shame that our country receives sweet F*CK all of stock,

i saw one on ebay, but at 450usd, i do not think i would go near it !!

I might email Scan and ask if they would ship overseas

 

[Jason-CL]

Thanks for the replies !!

Yeah, NZXT Said "no no, the front cannot fit a radiator in it, that is what the bottom is for" well i say "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED" The holes for the rad do not line up, so i will have to dremel in some notches so that it is not only screwed in by the bottom fan mount

Case will look better with a rad in the top, and the gpu's in too, then i will add the green dye, and my cathodes too

and S_I_N, i go for the awesome/overkill look

Well, sometimes it's good to be wrong!

I'm glad someone took the initiative of trying to get a 360 in the front. I can't believe you did, but you did! That's pretty awesome!

 

[PBaines]

So, here we are ladies and gentleman !!

my rig 95% completed

all i have to do now, is get myself a fan controller, and a waterblock for the GTX680, sleeving is great !! really happy with the way everything has turned out

Please let me know what you guys think !!

Please note: after taking these pictures, i realised i forgot something

does anyone know what it is?

[S_I_N]

thats all i noticed as well but I'm very tired lol

 

[PBaines]

hahaha, something major is missing !! surely you must be able to find it

 

[Ibanez81]

a back exhaust fan?

EDIT: the top of the res lol

 

[sharps_87]

So much green! This looks awesome, how long do you reckon it took altogether to sleeve everything?

 

[PBaines]

Its the perfect amount

hmmmmmm 7 hours?

 

[Vicey]

It's so beautiful

 

[Ru5ty_t00l]

it's awesome.

building + modding = great result

 

[PBaines]

Thanks guys

PS: will be trying to tidy up the cathode cables

 

[Alexander Lee]

That looks amazing... Might have to do a green build next

If you don't mind me asking, what did you use to sleeve your cables?

Also, does the switch feel like a solid case? Thanks

Well done on an epic rig

Hey thanks !! yeah green is a good colour if you ask me

Yeah man sure !! i sleeved my cables with the one and only MDPC-X sleeving

wouldnt go anywhere else !!

Yes, the Switch 810 is solid, a little plastic'y, but overall, very very solid

 

[Alexander Lee]

Thanks for the quick response,

Yes i might to go green next time now I have seen what can be done

Thanks for the sleeving company, I will definitely check it out. Would use cable extensions but much prefer the idea of doing it myself, much more of a sense of achievement

Might have to have another look at the switch for my next case, it looks really nice in those pictures...

Enjoy your build

 

[Solidarity]

The green looks great. I hope you can get that 680 blocked up some time soon

 

[yassarikhan786]

[SPS]

[PBaines]

Thanks guys !!
