Holy sheet metal, this IS the best pc/case/desk I have seen yet & it has extreme spec too, dude, I love this pc/case/desk .
Another massive contender in this MOTM .

 

This desk/case looks awsome, and quality of the build is fantastic . I also had no idea that polishing the CPU would make such a difference. You got my vote

 

Fan bloody tastic, truly superb work.
Mod of the month? mod of the year more like.

 

Awesome!!!!!!!!

Lets face it though you're ****ed if you want to go to a lan party Maybe stick a jetpack to it next

or alternatively bring them to your house much cheaper options

 

ME LIKEY A LOT.

 

First, congrats on the MOTM nod! Second, Bout spoiled my shorts when I saw this!!! Fantastic work +++ Subbing your log and will catch up

 

Congrats on MOTM nomination! Wish I had the skill to pull something like this off! Keep up the good work.

 

Wow dude, that desk is simply stunning! I love it! Grats on teh MOTM nomination as well! Well deserved!

 

Just finished reading the entire log and its damn impressive! I like how clean the whole thing is and the plumbing is just blowing my mind.

 

Thanks a lot guys !
I'm just a normal guy who combined some simple idea's

 

And the outcome is phenominal! Custom desk = meh, custom PC = good, but meh. Combine the two? OMGWTFBBQ AWESOMESAUCE! I just love the watercooling in it tbh!

 

I have to admit it's one of the most beautiful ideas I've seen! Great job l3p!

 

Still figuring out how to solve this little problem.
When i started building the desk i made small holes in the backplate, thought it would be enough.



Never thought about the 4x sata + 2x molex per hole at the right side of the desk.



Thinking of making one big hole between the 2 sets of hdd's in the backplate and turn around one set.
So all cables go through one big hole.



Also tested again with some mirrorfoil.



But im quiting with this idea ..
It's either mirroring too much, or darkening too much, can't find a way between them without losing the nice sight at the hardware.



And some random pics, love to play with it







Should turn it around a bit so i see 3 rings.

And thanks to Vinnie from Vin-Tech i can start sleeving the ugly red sata cables

 

He can have a LAN party at his house.

 

I made trouser mayonnaise, twice.

 

Well sleeving has to wait a few days ..

Ran into some weird problem.
Got twice a Bsod, and accidentally saw the voltages in the bios..



Even the cpu voltage is 0.03V higher then i want it to be.

When i remove the raidcard, the problem still isn't gone, voltages lower a little bit then.
So tomorrow ill change the psu.

 

Dude, this is just amazing!

Simply just love it! You got my vote for MOTM!

 

Small update


My Corsair HX1000 probably died



Glad that some1 could help me out with his spare PSU so i could find the problem.

And yes .. Other psu, and voltages were normal again.







Found something i maybe want to use to lift the glass.

Bitspower Shiny Silver Hinge.





And got the ordered relay to switch all my leds and lighting with one Bulgin momentary switch





And some tests offcourse.
Found a weird problem with the tempsensors.
When i switch them in hand mode, they work fine, but when i use the momentary switch the sensors become blue but don't show the temperature.
Hmm ...

Looks awesome man. Fluke meters and that's a competitive hinge you got there.
