Thanks alot guys, much appreciated

Update!

I've almost finished the left sidepanel. Tonight I've installed the rads, the touchscreen and the fancontroller:
























The print with the on/off switch for the screen is on the left side of the bottom frame:




Domenut as temporary button (any ideas what to replace it with?)

Amazing work

[Meelobee]

Thanks guys

Today I added all the plexistrips to the frame (which also was painted) and I've installed the front and back side:

Small update while I'm raising funds for the last parts (CPU & GPU...I need a sponsor lol)
I've sleeved and installed a couple of small parts: (phone pics, sorry)

Pump:


Powersupply:


Powerbutton:


And I've installed the ledstrips in the top of the case:


I also have a small movie of the RGB leds in action, but it's on my FB page, and I have no idea how to get that on youtube so I can share it here (If anyone knows how to do this, please tell me ) So here's the link to the clip I made:

It's been a while since the last update (sorry! ) and instead of making excuses why I didn't do more modding I'll just show what I've done.

The half stripped case :naughty:


Almost done sleeving the psu wires with Paracord, unfortunately I ran out of white Paracord so there's still 3 wires left to do.




Finally decided how to wire the gpu. So I've prepared for the wires of the gpu by making another hole in the panel that holds the mobo. (And I ordered another lasercut panel, just like the ATX panel. But this one is smaller and has 13 holes.)




Early version of the gpu bracket, it's quite big and bulky, but it will be smaller/sleeker when it's done.




And last but not least, a simple but effective bracket for 2 SSD disks.
The second disk fits in between the 2 alu pieces underneath the other disk.

:dremel:

A couple of days ago I received the 2nd pass-through panel and with it I've finished the wiring for the videocard. The wires have been cut to length and have been sleeved with Paracord. The 13th (still empty) hole is for the wire of the powerbutton.





And I've almost finished the mounting bracket for the videocard:

[Meelobee]

Took a while, but finally I got all the parts painted. Last 2 I needed to do where the left sidepanel and the GPU bracket. After painting I installed both. The black dots are the heads of the bolts that hold the parts on the inside, they won't be visible when the mobo is installed.









The inside, it's gonna be a hell of a job to make everything fit and close the case. Sata, 24pins ATX (incl plugs) & EATX wiring all have to fit in there somehow..

Looking good, as normal

[Meelobee]

Thanks Brayway

Haven't done much last 2 weeks, because I've been on holiday and spend some time with family, But I do have a small update on what I did after my holiday.

(phonepic)


Hopefully I have a bigger update somewhere this week

first class build! love it.
just a quick one though! have you looked at puting a pci extension cable in for the gpu and sit the card flat to the m/b may make it look a bit cleaner on the lines. was just an idea cos the gpu looks out of place with such clean build.

I finally bought a CPU (Intel i5 3570K) so I finally could install the waterblock and fill the loop;













On the to-do list:

- Replace the videocard, hopefully I get a replacement for it next week. currently Im using my old 6870.
- Organize the GPU wires.
- Install more damping material under the pump, the case now resonates the sound of the pump a bit.
- Install the wiring on the touchscreen (This is going to be tricky. I still need to connect a small flatcable from the back of the screen to another circuit board which has the on/off button for the screen. Problem is there hardly is any working room.)
- Install ledstrips in the bottom part of the case
