Bit of an update. I finally found a used R9 290 waterblock on ebay from Latvia so I ordered it and had it shipped all the way here to Australia...
Yes, that is a design flaw with the case. Happens to all of them because the prop is on the left hand side, there is nothing stopping the other...
No more ugly mesh. Cut out the fan brackets and replaced the mesh with plexi-glass. This was just a mock up, will cut another sheet properly...
Not paint but I did put clear keycaps on my K95 RGB... https://youtu.be/tePLGv-TKFM
AEROCOOL STRIKE X AIR - WATER COOLED OPEN CHASSIS [img] Updated this post to see from start to finish: [img] [img] [img] [img] [img] [img]...
It will be reading fan speed, but at the moment it's just wired to a molex. Brony for life. Update: New gpu in and working mighty...
Ok, so installed Windows 8, migrated to a 64bit OS for the first time (I'm years behind, I know) and wow. In a love hate relationship with Windows...

Bit of progress. New PSU and SATA drive.. Still using an IDE cable to transfer files from my old drives but that will go soon. Mounted an old...

So the sleeper is plodding along nicely.. But.. It needs to draw more attention. LOUDER! It needs some noise. And what a better way to make...
More mods to the Levin shell. Intercooler piping and a black bonnet: [img]
Had to make a few modifications to my OTA R31 to fit 10mm offset on the front. Lots of camber (not maxed though, surprisingly) and removal of the...
Damn right, nah, actually wanted to make sure it had the mounts for AM3 and not just intel. Even still, kinda wanted to see how big it actually...
So I was going to get the Coolermaster V8, but at the last moment I changed my mind and went for the more savage looking Thermaltake SpinQ - VT....
At a LAN, just casually NOT blending in with the sea of HAFs and Armour+s. [img]
I hadn't bothered to use it until JB, only because I heard that they revamped it in this update. The cards are fairly pointless. I'll be using...
[img] I used to have one of these! Still do, just stripped apart at the moment. 4WD and optional Diff lock switch. Awesome little beast. I know...
