After weeks of designing, and planning i am ready to unveil Blood Ice HAF 922. I had a couple of projects that i was working and wasnt sure i had the time for another. The system with feature a Red & White Theme incased in a Icy Shell. 2011 Cooler Master Case Mod Entry I would like to thank my sponsors for contributing to the Build Intel Sapphire BioStar Part List Cooler Master HAF 922 Intel i5-2500 k Sapphire 6970 GPU Biostar MB Phoybia 4 120mm Silent Fans red/clear First off was to clean I dust off HAF 922 it has been sitting in a box for about 8 months then onto disassmebly and strip the old paint from the system, which i was long and very time consuming. Now that i have it clean enough to piant, I started riviting it back together a added the new wheels to It primed and painted!! 4 days!!! lol A few red pieces
] Ok back to the unique & by far hardest part of the mod, Moldings very risky!!!! front panel dremeled to lay very flat I have a idea for the front grill after a day of drying Molds are ready Up next a custom side panel i ran out of polyurethane mold supplies, so i had to think of something else i had on hand, Resin perfect. The HAF 922 side panel sumerged in resin a sign of curing Came out better than exspected
I love these fans quick hardware test Top Panel was rough Cleaning Up the side panel Thanks for looking
I am still going to be to adding watercooling, paint the bay covers white , ect , sleeve the new power supply and add a see through side panel.
Dont know about anyone else mate, but I ****ing love it! Good job on thinking outside the square-ish cube looking thing made of cardboard
Thank you , This is the 3rd of the4 builds i have done with resin, i like the icy effect that it brings to the builds more to come making a few changes
Ok I began updating the pc to more teh finished product that i had envisioned. First up took off the rollers and add some cool case feet. Oh getting excited to see it match up with the red inside the case. Next up adding a window to teh side of the case added a little ecting With a chilling look Up next adding water cooling blocks to the components ( converted my 1366 Danger den water block to fit 1156 sockets) Asus Maximus Gene III and a HD5970 Thats all for now
Ok a good nite of progress added the ROG logo to the front panel fan intake. Came out better than expected Finished up the ROG logo illumination on the side panel a few areas to fix but came out pretty good Installed MB VGA and began tubing fore the water cooling Thanks again cant wait to put it all back together.
I really like the two-tone window etching. How did you do that? By using two pieces of plexi that are lit up individually? I'm really impressed with this build - good job!
Finished the loop Did some sleeving !!!! yeh leak test yea of course it leaked (lol) running very smooth now teaser pic Thanks for looking !!!!
Another Small update!!!! I had some left over cured resin that game me a great idea Started on the Asus ROG logo On the side panel!!!! over to the saw!! plain old Side panel 3D logo Some more sleeving to the top panel Teaser pic Thank you for Looking
