Hey all. New to the site and wanted to post the build I'm working on. I've been dreaming of building up a high-end system that I could not only game on, but also stream, edit videos and it use to run some game servers at the LAN events I run/attend. Well, this system is turning out to be a beast. HARDWARE CPU: Core i7-3960X Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth X79 GPU: 2 x ASUS GTX680's RAM: 64GB Kingston HyperX Predator SSD: 2 x Kingston HyperX SSD's in RAID0 Storage: 4 x WD 1TB Raptors in RAID0 Cooling: Corsair H100 Case: Enermax FULMO PSU: LEPA 1,600W THE MOD You may have heard of Bob Stewart over at BS MODS (http://www.bsmods.com/). His work has been featured in CPU Magazine, multiple websites and he's done a lot of work for vendors at shows like CES and PAX. His painting skills are unmatched and I knew I had to have him paint this case. I told Bob I knew I wanted an old school hot rod type of theme. I wanted a metallic silver base with a candy purple flames. Beyond that, I let him run free. The pics below are the final results of his paint work. Here's what the case looked like before he started Here's the PSU before paint Time to lay down the base coat of paint As you can see, its got a great metallic flake to it Now time to custom mix the candy purple Red & Blue makes Purple Now that the purple is mixed, its time to layout the flames and paint Bob figured out a custom way to paint the acrylic so the side panel with the window could also have the flames Here's the power supply painted with the silver and flames And now for the final pics of the completed paint job As you can see, BS Mods did an excellent job with the painting of this case. I'm currently waiting for the motherboard and video cards to arrive. When they do, I'll post the progress of the build along with the final pics. Thanks for taking a look at the build. -HAVOK
