heya guys first off this is a hello as im new to the forum . This is also my first build for myself and i wanted to make it more than just a normal pc .
here is a picture of my first ever build i did for a freind of mine about a month ago... this is also what got me hooked into building pcs insteas of just playing on them
was really happy with this as my first build as i went into it blind and didnt have a clue
anyway enough of that
I wanted to make something a little special to me and a little different. i had a good look around the forums and seen what people were building. i noticed not alot of people did band style builds so i thought why not ill give it a go.
i based my build on my fave band and also my username
good old parkway drive.
so i had a little look around at ideas and colour schemes ect and went with a blue black and white build.
first off was the case which im having custom made by my good freinds over at parvum....currently i dont have any pictures of it as im picking it up at i50.
so i thought i would leave you with a little teaser of my ideas and whats going into it
Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz
Asus Radeon R9 280X DirectCUII x2
Corsair AX860i
Asus Z87 MAXIMUS VI GENE
Samsung 250GB SSD 840 EVO
Corsair Vengeance Pro
the only thing im not that happy about is the motherboard as it doesnt match the colour of the build but i dont want to sacrafice performance over a colour and most of it wont be visable once put together i have a few ideas.
first up is the grills for the radiators here is a image of the band name for those of you that dont know the band
sent this over to a mate of mine who did a few render ideas for me i was more than impressed
here is the 240
and the 360
now time to get them cut and also by my first sponsor
(image temporarily removed)
this is the final product before painting and a truly amazing job
these have now been sent off to be painted buy dave at rigmods who did a perfect colour match to the mayhems pastel i am going to be using in the build
the paint
the mayhems pastel coolent
here are some awsome braids i will be using just need to shape them
thats all i got at the moment guys more of a little teaser of whats to come
hope u like it and more will be up shortly just waiting on the case
