PC-Beto

[p0Pe]

My goodness, the craftsmanship in this build is just 2nd to none

Thanks a lot man!

For real I can't belive my eyes.

You dont have to

Damn, wish I had the ability to do this crazy shit!

Its all about willpower

When you get done with this, you should send it to CPU magazine. I bet it could make the case mod of the month, it'd be on the cover of the magazine.

Thanks for the confidence Ill make sure to do that

No doubt. This build along with sniipedoggs "FLOW" can make it anywhere if they wanted. Top notch!

Thanks man Ill be sure to take it all the way to the top

Amazing work as always p0pe!

That picture of the single green-sleeved cable really brings out the vibrance of your photography.
What equipment do you use for your pictures?

Peace.

Thanks man!
A Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XS, a tripod and a large piece of white paper

p0Pe, your work is amazing!

Glad you like it

I just recieved the cpu block + more hoses. Now i just need a grafic card and a waterblock lol

 

[Bo$$]

holyshit i missed the final update, that was simply AMAZING!

 

[p0Pe]

Thanks bo$$!

I finally got a grafic card to put in this build! I bought a 4870x2 of a mate, and will be putting my curent 4870 into the build, or the x2, depending on what looks best I´m picking it up in a week! Wuuuh

 

[Techtu]

That is jaw dropping! pure quality!!!

 

[p0Pe]

Thanks man! I´m getting the graffic card in a week, and will update with the tube routing on the mobo then i hope
Still need to get a package from Aqua computer. It starts with K, and is the best performing waterblock outthere

 

[Techtu]

Just a thought, maybe you should fill in your system spec's so we can look at them whenever we feel like we want to.... like I just did now

 

[p0Pe]

Hehe.. You want the specs on this build, or my primary rig? Nothing crazy, since i am a cheap sob, and refuse to buy 500$ gpu´s and cpu´s lol

but here is some specs ill fill in the "system specs" thing later.

PC-Beto:
Mobo: MSI GD85
CPU: Intel i5 750
GPU: ATI 4870 Or 4870x2 (depending on what looks the best)
PSU: XFX 850W
Drives: soon to come cant decide if i should buy a ssd, or just a normal hdd.

Come, 4870x2 all the way

I would say you'd be best with a SSD drive for your OS, and then get a normal HDD for your data/backup.

Guna be a nice rig once you have it all


EDIT: What about RAM?

 

[p0Pe]

hehe, havent decided wether to put the x2 in this rig, or in my primary. Totally depends on the looks.
I would like a SSD, but think that i am to cheap to buy it lol!

Ram is yet to be decided. I am waiting to hear back from a sponsor, but i hope to get an answer this week

And i sure hope it is going to be a nice rig, since i put over a year´s work into it xD

 

[p0Pe]

Teaser

(was later repainted as there were some spots that i aparently missed... Always nice to find out after you already rivited the thing back together! )

 

[thermalmodlevel10]

Very Cool mod, looks reall good man

 

[p0Pe]

Thank you
Just spent 4 and a half hour the other day working on the psu, and havent even reached the sleeving part yet!

And some more pron

 

[cadaveca]

Can I tell you that your work here is inspiring?





Can't wait for more.

 

[thermalmodlevel10]

Im too planing to put sleaving on my psu. how much cable did you need, and also what lenght of each size did you need for the psu. ?

Thanks man! I am glad that i can inspire someone

Sorry to say dude, but this aint your normal sleeve job, since i made a whole modular cable system for the mod.

For a normal power supply you would need about 45 meters if you want to single sleeve every cable

 

[p0Pe]

I got mail!!!

​

A big thanks goes out to MUSHKIN for kindly sending 4*2gb sticks of their new AWSOME Ridgeback ram´s!!! These will look dope in the mod and i cant wait to get them!



Sooo pritty! Green and black ram´s for a green and black mod

I hope to have an update ready when i get these, along with some pics of them installed!

 

[p0Pe]

Finally! I had last day on the summerjob, and starting in school next week! So wanted to put this update up since a LOT have happened since the last update!

Now, where were we? Right about here i think.

This is how the case have stood ever since i went to hear stewie wonder in copenhagen. I got a 4870x2 with block on it, and fittet that in, and painted the mobo back panel!

The 2*6 pins fits so much better on to this card than they would have fittet on a 5870! There is just one downside, i miss two pins!

Now, a little tube routing have been set in motion, but there is still lots to do.

Now guess what hides under this hood? It has 64 gigs, and runs at aprox 270MB/sek in read and write I hope to be able to replace it with something bigger, better and nicer soon though.

Now this, is what the little glowsticks that Jon made for me does! (http://lund-tech.com/?Products:Lighting_module)

A quick shot of the side panel lit up!

of some reason, this reminds me of a horror movie, where you see a sharp light trough a window xD

Now, for the torture of the psu... Belive it or not, but it took me over 6 hours to make it look this way!

Soldering the wires back together after cutting them down to size.

2*6 pins down! 8 pin and 24 pin to go

Halfway there!!!

DONE! And i must say, i am quite happy about the final result! Not to green, but with a little black in between

From another angel. I practically had to stand on top of it to get the wires inthere! Talk about a close fit!

And what might this little bugger be? Remember the problem about missing a few pins on the 8 pin for the gfx card? No problem

Just put this one into the psu, and bam! 2 more pins fixed

Now, the octopus begins...

Now isn't this the best looking cable mess you've ever seen?

And the little 2 pin crawling trough the case and finally ending in the gfx card!

And now! A huge thanks to mushkin for sending me 8 gigs of these awesome rams! I cant wait to get these into the case!

Black and green, just like the rest of the mod!

Gotta love them. They are so incredible heavy compared to other ram sticks i have around, and i love the ridgeback fin design!

More pronz!

But hey now, what is this? "Something seems to be missing dude..."
Yeah, i noticed, but i couldn't decide if i wanted the copper top, or the delrin to for the build :/

Then its lucky that AquaComputer was so awsome to send BOTH the cuplex kryos HF and a spare delrin top!

Two awsome names paired!

Now, the only downside with the delrin top is that it doesn't take 10 mm compression fittings

The HF top however, does! This thing must weigh a metric tonne or therby!

And this is how she stands at the moment! I will update again when i get the ram installed, along with the waterblock. Oh, and dont mind the vandal switch hanging there It will be replaced with a black one i got from nutman

And again, thanks to the sponsors














Until next update, Cya!!!

I love this build. My only problem is personal opinion. I don't like the "PC-Beto" text on the front of the case. It kinda cheeses up the thing IMHO.

With that said I couldn't even begin to do this. So take my opinion with a grain of salt.

If you need some graphic work done for this beast send me a PM.

Hehe thanks man! You are not the only one saying that, and i actually made a whole new front panel file without the text, but it just looked wrong IMO
I might take you up on that offer! I am not the sharpest with photoshop myself

Thanks a lot man!

good news people! ITS ALIVE!!!

How it stands at the moment

Idle. Notice that the ram index score jumped from 5.5 to 7.5 by throwing these mushkin´s in!

Vantage score. I HAVE to get a new waterblock for this GPU.. Look at those vrm´s on gpu2 :wallbash:

And a 06 score

 

[DanishDevil]

Just saw this. All I can say is

 

[Chicken Patty]

This is truly just stunning Saw this from the beginning and to see what it is really gives me the goosebumps!

 

[Techtu]

This.... leave's me speechless! some very excellent work put into this project, clearly see that just from the overall outcome!

I've missed pretty much all the other pages of this thread, but that finished product has just tempted me to start from the first page till I get right back here
