I think I've fallen in love mate

 

[Saltire35]

Looks stunning !!

Where is that SSD getting mounted Paul ?

 

[B3rni3]

That is one huge motherboard. I have a cosmos 2 as well and my standard atx motherboard looks tiny inside but that thing covers up all the grommets. I love the water cooling very nicely done and I especially like the shade of red, cherry red pearlescent?

 

[yassarikhan786]

Simply stunning. There are not enough superlatives to describe how awesome that looks

 

[The Orange One]

WOW is all I Can say. Amazing!!

 

[coolmiester]

Well not exactly how i’d envisioned things happening but a few initial teething problems with the BIOS and a bank holiday to contend with meant the chassis painting was delayed and with Computex kicking off in two days, i decided to complete the build so at least i could grab some pictures of the fully working system and luckily all the parts that are getting painted can be easily removed in the coming week or so and paint work carried out.

I just wish i had better photographic skills as i haven’t done this thing justice because in real life it looks absolutely stunning even though i say so myself..........i honestly don’t think there is one aspect i’m unhappy with and the X logo on the front looks amazing.

Anyway, a few finished (until its painted) photos and spec....

Wow, what a beautiful rig

 

[Denis777]

Awesome project love the choice of Cosmos II case and SR motherboard in my opinion those two belong together

For sure If I ever decide to do another build its going to be cosmos and SR, probably would get rid of hard drive cages

in lower bay and install 2x dual radiators and two water cooled power supply's... so you working with this case do you think its possible?

I also noticed in early pictures you were using Bitspower SLI connector to connect your two video card, but in last few pictures your using different connector with out that clear plastic.

Just wondering why; did you have same experience as i did - them things leaking?

 

[coolmiester]

No not leaking Denis but as this case will be traveling all over the place to different shows i decided to go for something a bit more robust for the time being.

Its actually 35mm between cards with these Hydro Copper Blocks and BP didn't actually make a connector that fit so made it up from two rotaries and a double ended 4mm centre bit which made up exactly 35mm.

Had it been sat on my desk then i'd have probably gone for the clear pipe as i do actually quite like the look of it TBH.

 

[alicarve]

love it

 

[AverageNinja]

Amazing! Dear santa...

 

[yassarikhan786]

I would kill for this rig!!!!!

 

[Solidarity]

Just wow. This looks truly amazing.

 

[coolmiester]

A BIG thanks to Intel and to show my appreciation i thought i'd make them a nice logo for the upcoming iSeries event

 

[dipzy]

The intel logo looks brilliant, awesome work coolmiester

 

[AverageNinja]

looks simply amazing! Great work CoolerMiester!

 

[Saltire35]

Perfect build... just the massive Intel logo ruins it for me.

Just my humble opinion.

 

[Yeren]

Looks amazing dude.
