So as it starts to look more and more likely that RKJ may become a permanent fixture and looking for something to do I came up with the idea of something simple to do with a BitFenix Phenom. Ive been working with MSI on content for the RushKit channel so it only seemed right that we used MSI Gaming kit in a small rig for J to use as his workstation at TTL Towers. I had always wanted to do something with the dragon logo and the understated looks of the Phenom with its smooth uninterrupted panels seemed perfect for what I had in my head!

So here is the first few shots of whats been done with the case, as ever its got custom GFX and many people ask about the secondary colour. Its Not glow in the dark, its not UV and its not EL panels.

Its the same stuff they use on motorway signs....! TBH When I first said about this idea everyone thought I was nuts..... Well yeah naaaanaaaaaaa yet again it looks awesome - fu doubters :lol:

Specs are not 100% yet but I wouldnt expect it to deviate too much away from this:

MSI Z87i Gaming ITX
MSI R9 270 Gaming
Intel 4770K
Corsair Vengeance Pro 2400MHz
Corsair H100i
Corsair AX760i
Corsair GTX Neutron 240GB

Expect Videos on RushKit shortly......
 
Your a lucky sod J haha. :)

Enjoy your videos so glad you'll be permanent working alongside Tom, keep up the good work!
 
Beautiful looking thing.

Isn't the 4770k a bit high end compared to the R9 270? Or is it actually suited more to the type of work that RKJ will be doing on it? Anyway, I'm jealous!

We render in WMV for file size so CPU is more important - It doesnt even really need a GPU in it tbh¬!

He just uses my laptop for the forums ATM - most of the videos he has made so far have been made at his house
 
Argh, this makes me want to do my own Phenom ITX build even more :(

I'm not really a fan of dragons, but it does look good, as in done properly!
 
That looks absolutely awesome :o
I think the secondary colours look better than the primary ones though. I've never been a big fan of red and white together but it works well on the design for this case and does look good :)

Ah same! One of the reasons I upgraded by CPU last month. i3-2100 was just tedious.

Fairy snuff if it's mostly for rendering.
 
Been playing around with the camera with the desk back lights.... Waste of money they said, pointless they said! HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA

Will get some more when its proper dark later.

excuse my french!

that looks fucking sick!! id rock that all day long, i need to have a conversation with your designer friend!!!
 
The lights look epic Tom. I've been looking for some for myself since, even if it's just the type that you put behind your TV to give it that glow behind it, looks really professional on the pics you've posted.
 
Bit of a strange video tbh xD Aren't teasers usually like, 15-20 seconds? xD Who made that TTL intro btw? Needs a bit of work I'd say. The 3D text isn't even properly synced with the rotation of the background, and if it's going to be stamped on, it should be properly stamped, not just obviously floating in mid air ;D

Nice concept though.
 
LOL this is like a teaser for fast and furious or something. We just need J with a cap on sideays, some gold rings and chains nodding his head in the background.

P.S. It's also the theme song for this years Royal Rumble J. ;)
