Project "Twister Mod" 8.0.0.D (Finished)
Here I am once again with a new and special project for the year.
The engineering is still on progress but...With of your advice, I am quite sure to get the best possible result. First of all a special thank to the sponsors that are right now supporting me in this mod Corsair for having supplied me for now the case to start the mod http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/2249/corsairlogo.png and drako.it http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/6...asparentbg.png Let's start..... here the wonderful Corsair case before getting dissambled http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/5152/img5460j.jpg http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/9819/img5467z.jpg 1) When i started to open the case, you may see the high case quality, by the numerous anti vibration rubbers on every installed vent and both upsidedown the HD slots. http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/8784/img1009i.jpg http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/1859/img1001jo.jpg http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/1930/img1014ia.jpg http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/8451/img1011j.jpg coming soon :D |

A little progress...
For the moment let's start to postion a three-fan radiator 360 BlackIce GT Slim http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/4364/dsc0101dq.jpg At the same time i prepared the cut rectangles for the slot-boards on the new port-slide of the Mainboard, do not care about the scracthes this is just a test board...i already prepared a thicker one....from 3mm you can see in the photo to 5mm for toughness motivations beacuse later the load on it will be higher and i don't want any bending on it http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/5541/dsc0095ux.jpg I just received my new Evga X79 SLi directly from Drako.it ... i choose this board for its qualities, the layout and colours of the mainboard. Now i can continue with my measures and positioning etc... http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/908/dsc0141l.jpg http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/3492/dsc0140m.jpg Here for the first time i can show you my new logo which will identify my mods... nothing particular, i'd say quite simple http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/5973/twisterlogo.jpg so, I started to modify immediately the mainboard http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/7108/dsc0159qw.jpg http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/4388/dsc0162ta.jpg I remade the bottom of the Mainboard port with a plaxi 5mm thickness... i bored it to let pass the cables...not satisfied yet, i made some small labels to cover partially the hole... here you are....judge please http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/2975/dsc0266e.jpg http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/9106/dsc0267tg.jpg http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/1696/dsc0268ok.jpg http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5965/dsc0269p.jpg :thumb: |

http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/7748/dsc0048zx.jpg http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/9283/dsc0286bx.jpg and more works:) http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/8143/dsc0281nl.jpg http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/4158/dsc0275oe.jpg http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/295/dsc0278lg.jpg |
Looking good! :thumb:
I like the EVGA cover plate. I would just be worried that no air would be able to get under it so the cooling fins could do thier job, overheating it! :) |
After being awhile for a long time..... I can right now post the photos i took of my work quietly to can explain the progress steps.
http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/7540/800d25.jpg Here we can see the internal front entirely covered with a glassy window to make it appear as elegant as possible, everything crafted with my trusting Cnc! on the flank i covered the wires with a white board keeping them hided as I could .....obviously the internal is concave... http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/1156/800d31.jpg In this View we can notice our hexagonal grid customized with the "Corsair" Logo with a sober and simple style! "sorry for my english" |

let's just have a look ! we can see the board with my sponsors' logos made from bicolor plexiglass 2mm, the right choice to engrave correctly....
http://up.nexthardware.com/user_imag...air 800D 2.jpg see interior :D the "blue" what is? http://up.nexthardware.com/user_imag...rsair 800D.jpg |
My goal in this case was to eliminate the exceding tubing and wires to make it "cleaner". now there is only to swicht on my Cnc and start working.
http://up.nexthardware.com/user_imag...air 800D 3.jpg on the flank i was doing some tries with "blu fluid" from feser just to have a look at it. http://up.nexthardware.com/user_imag...air 800D 4.jpg I'D call it "cover", later we will see how it will be like ! ! ! http://up.nexthardware.com/user_imag...air 800D 5.jpg |
