Finally getting started on my Hex Gear R40 build. I'm going with a red and black theme, witch will show by the compunents that I have chosen. Specs: Case: Hex Gear R40 (With frosted red accent pack) Motherboard: MSi Z97m Gaming CPU: Intel i7 - 4770K Ram: 16Gb G.Skill TridentX 2400MHz GPU: 2x GTX780Ti Storage OS: 250Gb Samsung 840 EVO Storage: 1Tb Samsung 840 EVO PSU: Antec HCP-1000W The watercooling will from EK and fittings from Bitspower. Put together witg PETG tubing from Nanoxia. All the tubing will be done with at frosted finish to match the accents on the case. The cables in this build will all be custom sleeved with Teleios sleeve from E22. The four aluminium profiles, that form the corners of the case will be anodized black. A couple of naked GPU's The powerplant. Some of the watercooling parts has allready arrived. Waiting for the rest. Here is some pictures of how the tubing will look. Finally, the eight countersunk washers that are going on the front and bach of the case.
The R40 is a thing of beauty - I'm looking into the PETG tubes & Coolforce fittings for my own build at the moment so it would be good to see how they turn out in yours
Just did some painting before leaving for holiday with the family. Have not decided if the color is acceptable, I'll find out when I get to the assembly stage.
Finally got some packages with GLS Also found some time to do some assembling, so that the GPU's dont have to be lying around naked And now, to the hardest component in the entire build to get my hands on, the Nvidia SLi brigdge
Hi Jeffinslaw, the color is called "purple red" It's a very nice color, I just can't decide if it's to dark for this build
After a long wait for some of the last parts. I'm back with a little update with pictures of the new screws to hold the window and the painted SLi bridge
Thank you very much, I have more details coming Just waiting for some of the last things, so I can get started on the custom sleeving
Just received a package from E22 with all tha sleeving supplies Also got the backplates from EK and got the mounted, with another detail
The small details on this one is just blowing my mind Absolutely love the screws on the graphic cards, and the anodized profiles are also insane!
