Hi Bit-Tech! It's been a while since my last project! Having moved back to France after 10 wonderful years in Japan, it's time now to do another build. No scratchbuild this time like I did with the Hikari Project. My project will be based on the new Corsair case, the 570X RGB. Big thanks to all the sponsors of Black Diamond: Corsair, Aquacomputer, CableMod and Silicon Lottery. Here are the specs of this build: - CPU: i7 7700K binned and delidded by Silicon Lottery - Motherboard: TBA - RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4 - PSU: Corsair AX1200i - GPU: Nvidia Titan X (Pascal) - SSD: 2x Corsair Neutron XTi - Case: Corsair 570X RGB - Sleeved cables by CableMod The CPU and GPU will be watercooled, thanks to Aquacomputer. This time again, I'm aiming for a simple but classy look. I hope you will enjoy the trip! Recently, I received some packages. Here is a little preview, more to come soon!
Yes, been so long! The moving to France put me out of modding for too much time, so I can't wait to have this project done! I received some packages since last time. Thank you Corsair for the support! Another part finally came after much wait. More unboxing to come!
Finally had the time to make a little progress on the build! Thank you Corsair for the support. So gorgeous RAM! But it's time to make it fit the theme. After some paint coats later: Another package just showed up too. I can't wait to do some more unboxing soon, thanks to Aquacomputer and especially Sven. I started working on the case too, but you will have to wait a little more.
More than a year after, Black Diamond project is back! To be quick, all progress has been lost (except some parts I could save) but with the help of Corsair, project is on rails again. It was the occasion to rethink some aspects of the project. Let's start with the case, the beautiful 570X RGB Mirror Black Edition! New addition to the build, a Corsair M.2 NVMe SSD! Next, the CPU: Silicon Lottery sent me one of their i7 7700k, delidded and ready to be OC'ed. Next step: the custom reservoir!
