Case Mod - In Progress Build Log "45Deg"

Hello, my name is DJ Madrid age of 21 and also known as Kryptek PC Casemodz, I am from the Philippines. And also, thanks to my major sponsor for this build project Thermaltake and ASUS, thank you so much for this opportunity, more power!

And now, let's go to the build.

This project will be named "45Deg" or "45 Degree", the position of the motherboard is something new in our eyes because normally many of the mods today are rotated into 90 degree or 180 degree inverted, so I decided to make a 45 degree rotated motherboard position. I'll be using Thermaltakes water cooling parts, case, power supply and Riing fans, Asus motherboard, GPU and etc.

Here is my isometric 3D design using Google SketchUp 2016. Hope you'll like it

 

Welcome to the forums! Do you have any work in progress to upload at this stage? I've temporarily moved the thread to modding until you can confirm.

Thanks!

 

Thank you! Yes, I have my work on going, I'll upload it later

 

Hey guys! Late update, these are the items from Thermaltake's i'll be using for this build.

 

Got them shot! These are awesome, many thanks to @Thermaltake Technology Inc for supporting me!

 

Hey guys! Sorry for the late update, I changed a little design of my isometric design and now on i'll start stripping this case and lets start it!

 

Moved back to build logs - good luck

 

Thank you!

 

Ok, I just dis-assembled the top and rear panel for now.

 

Like the idea of a 45 degree angle.

 

Thank you mate!

 

Good afternoon guys! Just a little update of the case, I made the frame using angle bar aluminum steel.

 

Before we resume modding, let me do a quick preview of the motherboard that i'll be using for the build

The sexy main board


Sexy heatsink, I loved it! Also you're gonna use only the Skylake processors with DDR4 3400+ MHz (OC) 4 DIMM slots, dual Channel XMP Support


SupremeFX on-board audio, the best audio performance


PCI Express slot, and also have the M.2 Socket 3 Type M PCIe Gen 3.0 x4


southbridge heatsink with the ROG logo is more sexier than the previous rog boards


IO ports

 

For now, just to preview this gpu from Asus the GTX 970 Strix 4GB. Unfortunately I got fever and headache in the past few days so that I cannot updated some modding works today, I just took a photos for a quick update, hope you guys understand. I'll keep you guys updated!

 

Design looks promising. Is it not too late to add a small forward tilt on the face? It will make it look "fast".

 

Hey! How you guys doing?

Im just living here a quick update of the hardware part which is the Raiden-Red Tesla for Avexir that i'll be using for the build.

Here we go!



















I'll update the build asap!
