Water & Wood (GTX 580 tri-SLI)

miahallen · Oct 8, 2011

I just finished my build "Water & Wood". You can see all the details in my worklog.

I'm very pleased with the result, a very powerful and peacefully quite gaming rig

El_Mayo · Oct 8, 2011

This is beautiful

15th Warlock · Oct 8, 2011

I love your rig, and your office, it's so Zen.

Good job, seems like you have invested a lot of time an effort on this build

Wow, just wow. Excellent build.
Where's the rad? What rad are you using? I'd love to us a Mora Pro 3 in a desk mod, would go perfectly.

miahallen · Oct 8, 2011

mlee49, check the 6th picture down, you can see the three 4x120mm Swiftech rads on the left of the photo

Maban · Oct 8, 2011

I do believe I'm in love. One of the very best mods I've seen.

ShiBDiB · Oct 8, 2011

Not a fan of windows, especially ones with led's and weird symbols... besides that tho well done

d44ve · Oct 8, 2011

Wow... I was prepared to check out the pictures and laugh. But damn, that sh!t looks good.

Not a fan of the windows and the symbols though

miahallen · Oct 8, 2011

Thanks guys, I'm an American living in Japan...hence my decision to integrate a cultural touch.
The symbols say "Water" on the top and "Wood" or "Tree" on the bottom.

OnePostWonder · Oct 8, 2011

You're an artist!

How long will you be able to keep that desk clutter-free?

:laugh:

Clever

Altered · Oct 8, 2011

Its so clean!!!

I can accept the glass/window but I am not a fan of the led water/wood symbols. A light glow from far inside would be enough to intrigue the unsuspecting eye. IMHO

Excellent job on the build.

bbmarley · Oct 9, 2011

wow that looks pretty dam smart

Animalpak · Oct 9, 2011

Beautiful ! Compliments but it is too easy, you're out of the construction rules imposed by a standard case

MilkyWay · Oct 9, 2011

Ditto... it is really clean.

douglatins · Oct 10, 2011

Is that real wood? That game me ideas, i have a mobo tray from MMods. And always wanted a case that could hold quad rads. That's looks great

PopcornMachine · Oct 11, 2011

Nicely done. :cool:

miahallen · Oct 11, 2011

The old portion of the dest is cheap partical board

The add on stuff is pine

Bjorn_Of_Iceland · Oct 11, 2011

Is it passively cooled?

miahallen · Oct 11, 2011

Check the build log for details

DrunkenMafia · Oct 11, 2011

WoW

Well done mate, that is really nice, really clean and really original.

Lionheart · Oct 11, 2011

I love creativity like this, awesome job man :toast:

SaiZo · Oct 11, 2011

Now that is really cool.
Are that 3 rads or is it just one big one??

TIGR · Oct 11, 2011

Is that a Deck Legend Ice?

Also, which Samsung model is that? It looks like a 275T but I doubt you'd use that for gaming.
