well im at it again lol

on the 15th this month im getting this case:

it has allready been modded, but there will probably be some minro things i want to change when i get it

this will mostly be a build log, with minor modding added

im negotiating a deal on 3 rads, 1 triple 120 thin rad, 2 dual rads also thin ones

they will be painted white or some other color which i still have to choose

HW will most likely be what i have now, see specs for more info, OR i will sell what i have now (MB and CPU) to get SB or bull dozer

next update in a few days

WOW with that case you could probably install a 24/7 vapochill SS unit

looks nice roomy space it looks would be nice if you place many hdds, do cable management and so
just paint the inside with black then do the mod

Hmm - Sub'd

if i were to paint it at all it would either be Candy Apple red og Lamborghini orange, both with black detailing

but yeah, i do plan to get a ton of HD's in it, might even get a Atom board on one side to make a small file server

going to pick it up in 5 hours ~

just put the system quickly together today, just to get an idea of what to do regarding watercooling and such

assaulter_99 · May 16, 2011

Subbed, I see it well painted in black to match the scheme of your stuff. White is good and rare, but when dust settles in, it will tirn yellowish like a custom case I had a couple of years ago. Nice looking case bro.

HammerON · May 16, 2011

Looking good man :toast:

the case was powdercoated in 2008

the guy i bought it from was a smoker and he hadnt used the case in a year, and i just wiped it off with a cloth and it was just as new again

ofc cable management will be 100x better.

im thinking about putting this in the front of the case if i have the room for it
http://www.aquatuning.de/product_info.php/info/p2050_Xtreme-NOVA-1080-Radiator.html

gonna measure tonight and see if i have the room for it

then buy a 10mm clear acryllic panel to replace the front bezel with to make the case ultra clean.

HammerON · May 16, 2011

That is one hell of a rad

(FIH) The Don · May 16, 2011

yeah its pretty big lol

but i think i can make it fit

also

working on a special SSD Mount

still in the making

Velvet Wafer · May 17, 2011

Subbed! As i know Don, that Project will be pretty awesome, if it reaches completition! Much more interesting, than any buy and stick Megarig out there, no matter how much it costs!

Subbed, Love double width cases.

Luciel · Jun 10, 2011

Looking awesome!

(FIH) The Don · Jun 10, 2011

for now its only 2 dual rads

the plate can hold 2 triple rads
and the case can take 1 in the top over the psu area

i still need a cpu block, a pump, fittings, tubing and a res

so going slow, but steady

the rad on the left is one i got for free from VelvetWafer along with 2 fittings, 1 meter tubing and some u channel rubber

he is one awesome guy ^^
