Thanks man,I did wonder where you got too.... ![]() Omega Stalker has settled on what he wants 'under the bonnet' as it where. 3770k and a Z77 Sabertooth,this is the second one I have used as they just look and perform great! A good choice all round from what i see! ![]() ![]() ![]() Just need to breadboard it all for problems before i mod the armour and ram. Initially there was a 3570 going in but Omega found a 3770k in his price bracket and jumped on it fast,wise move i think. |

Noted. I'm making a PSU bracket. I guess I should'a expected non-spec PSUs. Couldn't you just bend the end of the grill in a bit? -You know, the classic 'force it to fit' kinda thing?

Even the screws with the grill in are too high.... I might just leave it off,the PSU is fan side down anyway. I will say this,the AX860 doesnt look or feel as well made as the AX850,the casing looks cheap and less well finished.. Last edited by B NEGATIVE; 19th Feb 2013 at 22:10. |

So,the bottom rad bay is done on the windowed side and the main components are in for the pre-mod shake down
Forgive the pic quality,using my cam phone. ![]() ![]() ![]() There will be thin clear plexi strips across the opening like a grill. ![]() More Alu coming tomorrow for the interior,im aiming to get the whole lower rad bay finished,pumps mounted and all the plastics back on by weekend (better pictures as well!) |

Thanks guys!
Sorry about the delay,cant find my flash card for my DSLR so its cam pics for this little update. Midplate in and painted ![]() And the pump top is mounted,the copper top is missing as it needs polishing. ![]() ![]() Front shot showing the copper accents on the drop down panel. ![]() ![]() The res are off to Tom at Chilled PC for the front ports to be drilled and tapped. I was going to attempt this myself but Tom is great at what he does and charges a very reasonable rate,I would be mad not to get him to do it! Next stop,getting the hardware in for its shake down before hitting it with teh paint gun. |

Here comes that moment of the build: If something bursts into flames, no surprise. If not, THEN you proceed to shitbrix
Looking good!

I had same problem with corsair PSU grill, had to remove it & replace with one of my own.
![]() Makes it the wrong dimensions & they need to improve that, they make awesome PSU's & then spoil it with such a small detail forcing you to void the warranty to make it fit, not good. Project is looking good though. ![]()
