    Hi!

    The Black-Mod team is proud to present the fruit of our work, our newest completed mod:
    MSI ROCK.
    In its core, the MSI X99A Godlike Gaming Carbon, a one of a kind rock solid motherboard,
    equipped with the Intel Core i7 5820K CPU and 64 gigs of HyperX Predator 3200MHz RAM.
    The cooling of the build is a completely custom made Bitspower loop with lots of hard
    tubing and dual 240mm radiators, including into the loop the MSI GTX970 graphics card.
    Storage is provided by three HiperX SSD's, a Predator M.2 480GB and 2 Savage 48GB SSD's in RAID.
    The whole structure was made by hand. We wanted to present the feeling of an epic rock concert.
    We faced some challenges, like pulling off a perfectly simetrical, hexagonal structure while
    making the woodwork, taking care of the small parts and electronics providing the movements
    for the dragons. In the end we think we succeeded in bringing our design to life.
    The moving and spinning dragons are nicely complimented by the RGB led lighting, which can be
    set to automatically follow the rythm or can be set to operate fully manually. The audio is
    provided by a built-in auto hi-fi system, for it's size it provides surprisingly rich and clear audio.

    I am not a fan of the painted wood. But I love the original idea of the Dragon Army rock band like this. Very fun :D
