GLACIER

[ADmodz]

​

Glacier came to light when Thermaltake launched the Core P3 snow edition case, I've seen many a core p3 and p5 mounted next to each other, but never stacked vertically on top of each other.

So the design came to life and my vision became a reality.

I would like to thank my sponsors on this project:-

Alphacool :- Eddy

Scan Computers Ltd :- Shelly

Gigabyte Uk :- Andrew B

To The Wire :- Michael Sheppard

Maxwell Jones Studios Ltd:- Archie Greig

OG Designs :- Oliver Gilbert

Addon Customs :- Marcus Hawkins


GLACIER SPECS:-

Thermaltake Core P3 snow editions / Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 7 / Intel i7-6700k / EVGA Supernova 850 watt /

Alphacool watercooling / Samsung 950 pro 512gb / 3 x Kingston Hyperx 3K 480GB SSD

9 x Enermax Cluster Advance 120 mm fans / 2 x Nvidia GTX 1080 / Corsair Vengeance LED 64 Gig 3000mhz

My design was to connect 3 core P3 snow chassis together vertically, and have 3 different coloured water loops going around the outside of each level.

here's a few pictures of the watercooling hardware:-

Now to start on the mountain of acrylic work. I sent a few pieces out for laser cutting, due to my high workload at the moment.

Call me twisted if you like but i look at these builds like a strip tease act. The first pics are always like the jacket being taken off as a sexy precursor to "the big reveal" which is weeks, sometimes months away.


I'm looking forward to the "money shot" already.
