[GotMod?]

Hi to all crazy people!!
Some modding from Moscow )

im new to all these..modding, wc, bit-tech ) first project ever - greetings!!!

I'll be short for comments, let's get to bizznes, i mean business ) (my english is not too good)

Here is the case to be modded (Lian Li V600f):

Not the best solution for a watercooling, but looks freakingly nice!

The first thing i did was taking it apart:







*nice stiker on the back

Totally taken apart (sorry for pics quality):

Parts to be painted:

Ah! Always good to see a Lian li build I've done a couple myself, the most recent is half done mind you.
If I could give some advice, always finish your build, even if it costs more then you expected, it's worth it in the end, knowing you built it and it works .

Happy building!

Painted all the parts with matte white:















And the result:

Sleeving

Ok, did the sleeving. Used panda camo paracord.

[GotMod?]

But as i did the sleeving for the first time, i guess i did it not really good.
I don't like the result. Heatshrink seems to me too ugly )))

I decided to remake it without using heatshrink.

Here is the result. Looks much better to me:







And here is 24-pin:

Welcome to the bit-tech! Your mod is very interesting - looking good so far!

расскажешь, как делал без термоусадки? у меня тоже репшнур и тоже хочу как у тебя сделать - интересно, как делал. Привет из Москвы

[GotMod?]

Thank's Shurika!
I'll try to make a short vid to show you how to make it shrink-free, its really easy - melt and twist ))

[Shurika]

OK, I`ll wait for update

[Sparky1987]

I agree no heat shrink looks lots better from your pics so far it's looking good, great finish to your paintwork with clean lines, can't beat a good black and white build

[Lehani]

Very nice build - yes i would love to see how you sleeve without using heatskrinks

i have some MDPC sleeving for my furture build - so making that without heatskrink would what be lovely

Time for the inside panels

Ok, with the help of cardboard, did the templates of the inside panels:



The AutoCad version:



And the real ones after lasercut:



Here is the plan on how to place them:

[GotMod?]

Cut all the holes:

Shurika, as i promised, here is a short video on how i make it



I guess the same method works with MDPC sleeving as well.

Just testing how everything fits:

Cool vid! I'll have to try paracord next time. I just made my first attempt at sleeving and used my fingers to push in the staples... You're right, sliced the **** out of several of em. Looking forward to the rest of this project.

[krussellusaf]

That sleeving technique is amazing. Thank you very much for the how to vid.

What type of paracord did you use? I presume it's the 3mm stuff with the centre pulled out?

[GotMod?]

Thank you all guys!!

It's usual paracord 550 Type III, approximately 4 mm. There was something in the center, I don't know how to call it, but i had to pull it out.
