Thansk Guys!

About painting the case My mind is split, since i like it silver with accents of black but to make the name more appropriate all block would most likley be better.

I will have to think more About that part.
 
Since I got nominated to mod of the month over at Bit-tech I thought why not treat all of you with some pictures!

you can vote and check out the article here:

I havent covered everything just yet

Ooh dem white LED's. Only thing i'm questioning about this rig is the 24pin around the res, but that's just me being a bit picky, it's looking great.

Yeah I´m trying to come up with a better way to do that, but its hard to get it without make it to messy. I'm thinking about maybe taking it arround the res one more lap if it's possible

What do you think about that?

Wow, that rig looks amazing

Personally i'd hide the 24pin cable under the res but if you prefer it over the top fair enough

So here is a christmas update!

Right now due to the weather here in Sweden I cant really do that much.

Things that are going to happen is panels being painted black, som kabelmanagement och some other small fixes and yeah a tinted plexi is going to replase the clear one I have now
smile.gif


The thing that will have to happen first is the paint but that I cant do due to the rain and that I dont have a garage to play in!

But it will happen!
smile.gif


Got another project coming aswell
smile.gif
 
Thanks for the support everyone!

At the moment I have the problem with weather and time, to give the last touches to the project. When I get home most of the time there is raining outside or i´m just to tired.

But I will have to give it a go in the near future for sure.

Hang in there

So here We are back again to start making some miner changes to the case and some other smaller things.

On the list right now we have some sleeving to be done, some cable management all around, And the big thing will be to paint almost every outside panel in matte black, I will leave the inside Metallic since it helps show all the components, but maybe at a later state the interior might get painted aswell.

So what do you say about some pictures?

These are the first two plates to get a nice matte black finish:

Why not get some color on those backplates to show whats powering the build?

Here is a start for a better cable management:

Why not make a little more custom wire bonding?

And to round it all of, Here is the 8pin CPU cable, I took away about 15 cm just so I dont have lots of cable behind the motherboard tray.

Stay tuned More to come!

Yeah! Another update, hope you like it!

I had some problems with the rigg this weekend, I was working on the Kable management to get a nice and clean look like TTL
wink.gif
But when I turned on the rigg and was about to play some BF3 the screen started to flash white and the same happend in 3dmark 11, so I checked all the pci-e kabels if any got disconnected and there was one, but it didn't fix the problem it turned out that it was the cpu power that wasn't pushed in all the way.

So today there will be no pictures of the back of the motherboard but instead I will show you around the more interesting parts, just to show the case and some smaller things I have done! Hope you like the pictures!

Looks fantastic mate

. You gunna powder coat/paint the inside as well?

Thanks!

For now I will leave it as it is, since I kind of like the way the bare aluminum makes all of the internals pop, think it gonna look nice with the black exterior a nice contrast.

But I´m thinking of doing it, just have to wait and see how it turns out, I hope it will look nice since I wouldn't like to take everything apart again, at least not right now;)

and if I'm going to "paint" everything black then I'm thinking of anodizing all the panels black just to get that more exclusive feel:)

You will have to wait and see
