Hello to all boys, here I am back with a new project, very different from my standard made-scale "reduced" as the PSPC (computer inside a PS1) and the newcomer, the cub8 (mini-ITX case that I upset the inside to mount a 240mm AIO). I also take this opportunity to say that the project will take inspiration from my current PC, to which I gave a touch of elegance that was missing, Kathrine. TfT, the name of the new project, to which the name refers to the two "towers" on the sides of the case. Here are some render illustrating what I want to do. Sponsor: Config: Case: Cooler Master Trooper Fan: 9x Cooler Master Silencio 120 PSU: Cooler Master v850 CPU: i7 3770K Motherboard: MSI Z77A-GD55 Ram: Transcend AXERAM 16GB 2400Mhz VGA: R9 290 Hybrid Air/Watercooled SSD: 2x Transcend SSD370S 128GB Cable: ModdingStylez Silver/Grey/Black / Coolforce by Nanoxia Liquid cooling: WB CPU: XSPC RayStorm WB VGA: EK thermosphere Pump / Reseivor: XPSC 750 Tubes: Coolforce by Nanoxia Fittings: Coolforce by Nanoxia Liquid: Coolforce by Nanoxia Radiators: 2x 360 60mm The changes that I will do, as you can very well be noted: -double Radiator 360 push / pull -Motherboard Rotated 90 ° with I/O on top -MidPlate Ad-hoc -Colours Main Black / Silver -Sleeve Of all cables Thanks for the attention
