    My first casemod build log post here! My previous worklogs were in my local forum, LowYat.net here in Malaysia. Decided to post it here as all my idols and peeps I look up to are here.

    This is a personal project I've been itching to do for quite some time based in my all time favorite case, the Silverstone TJ07 - way ahead of its time in design and modularity ever since its launch in 2006. We've done a casemod in a TJ11 and it turned out pretty sweet last year - featured in the Nvidia Pascal Launch here in Malaysia. Partly inspired by XForma, Scarf will be an original TJ07 case mod with some noticeable elements of its own.

    Massive thanks to Nvidia, EK Waterblocks and Gigabyte for sponsoring this build. This build will be featured in the biggest LAN party in South East Asia, Cyberfusion. This build will be showcasing a green, chrome and black theme. The GPU's however will remain in their sexiest Founder's Edition form while the CPU will be liquid cooled using chrome copper tubing piping and also a custom made reservoir.

    Specification
    (Will be fully completed once the build is complete - ya know, minor changes here and there)

    Estimation of build completion

    A few sexy shots of the GTX 1080's. Reused these from the Emarque album when it first launched last year.

    Case preparation, its a used chassis I managed to source out from a local PC enthusiast.
    Cleaned the parts and stripped down to remove some of the parts to make room for the modifications and watercooling.

    Begun working on the custom mid-section and bottom plate for a cleaner look and mounting.

    Had to cut off these edges to place a flat acrylic plate over it for a cleaner look - covering the holes.

    Good ol' trusted angle grinder.

    Done the bottom plate.

    Starts work on the custom mid-section beside the motherboard for a cleaner look for that as well.

    After painting them matte black. Clean and beautiful, will have to drill a hole and use the Dremel Motosaw to cut the holes for the 24pin and 8 PIN PCIE's
