Storm Fortress

hi guys this is my first work log so i dont know much about using this forum

it will be an intel base build and the green team for vga a mix of ek and xspc cooling for now

and this is what i have to work with for the now

what it was





as u can see the color theam for now is blue and black

but as the mobo may change soon the color may aswell

any ideas or criticizem
im a newbie to build logs so any help is welcome i have been modding for over a decade

my first mod was done to a 486 dx2 66mhz with a woping 16mb of ram

dim switches to overclock i think i got it to 73mhz

the first hertal the water-blocks did not fit the cards so i made them fit !!













some sleaving









and time to cut







cut up and test fitted mobo tray rotation 90*








and some pron









i have been working on replacing the back im am trying to use as much of the silverstone case as i can so im using the floor of the silverstone case







and im also trying to work out the PSU position


first idea




second idea



im thinking this ^

i have extended the psu mount 45mm out the rear of case



fitted skin in rear of case will be cutting rad mount in



and window desine gonna ponder on the window for a few days before i cut



and also i will be only using materials from the 2 cases no outsourcing sheet metal or plexi the only real things outsourcing tools and paint /sand paper /pop rivets



im thinking this mite work

i thort of this

the face will be cut in aswell






is this where the theme takes a massive detour crap iv been doing blue black aqua

and it looks like its going to take on a halloween theme













hope you all are like the way things are going it seams to be changing as i go who knows how this will end up ..

and thanks for all the comments keep them coming it seams to make me work harder( get more done)



update

XSPC give u 2 of these face plates in there tank kits and so forth so why not put the other to use


keep in mind ther will be 2 ssd on the plate

this will be bolted together with hex bolts













CENTER]BooM!!!!!!!!!

i evan shocked my self

Don't worry about the quantity of updates. Just the quality.

dont worry bout that im pedantic about my builds this thing has changed so many times as its been going along.

i just like something that i have done than something els i think of looks better

modding and building is a full time thing for me at the moment no work

but when it comes to spelling and grammar im no-good at that.

so please bare with my hard to understand statments ..

. but i think the pics tell the story


thanks for the comp!!! aswell

This looks pretty awesome! Don't stop on the account of others attitudes... Seriously, if anyone else is going to give you attitude for something you are doing, then ignore it and keep plugging on! Seriously, if every piece of criticism I had been given, made me give up, I wouldn't continue modding. You are who you are as an individual, and what you do is up to you. I would much like to see where you are taking this, so please don't quit!

That ^

Although, I don't know what you're talking about attitude wise... I have seen nothing but positive and/or encouraging posts in this thread so far... am I missing something?


Edit: Never mind, I see most of your other threads turned into flaming... well, flaming at any rate. Sorry to see that happen. Do what you must, I guess.

this is looking like a real beast, keep it up

thanks ex4n.
