Project Extreme Lian Li. New hardware is coming.

I just used a allen key to open my nv-40 blocks up, wasnt aware there was any special one.

Pimping project btw

 

Quite an amazing looking case or should I say computer since there's more than one case involved. I love the idea of the mirror mod, looks sweet especially with the backlight. Very nice job.

 

Thanks for the compliment Rocket733, bud in my eyes the water cooling part is to big. And when you look to the front of the case it looks not like 1 case. I speak with the staff from xcs systems to chance the water cooling. I only need the front from the prometeia so I can give the 3 parts a look that it is more 1 case. In the next update that part will past.

And there are more people who like the mirror mod. a total copy from the mirrormod.

 

Update 6

After the Cebit I start to chance the water cooling part. I want to try to make it more 1 case than 3 and chance the front to make it more complete. The next event is the Dutch Casemod Championship. For that I need a front from the Lian Li kit for the Prometeia and some plexi glass. Also a chance the big etch from the window to a smaller one.



I make a big hole in the plexi plate for the ccfl’s.



The 2 plates between the 3 parts from the case.



With some light.



Now I start to make a custom case for the water-cooling in the same style as the prometeia.
First saw the steel.



Than weld the steel.



Saw the plexi plate for the hose from the prometeia.








Also I chance the plexi plate from the power supplies the first one from 4 mm broke. This one is 6 mm.





And now making that new water cooling part.
The frame for that part. I paint it grey, the same colour as the lian li.



With the plexi plate



Some parts from the lian li kit for the prometeia much also chance.



That’s better.







The first idée for the side panel from the water cooling. Later I chance that also because want I want was too expensive.











Here you can see the difference in height.



The idée was to open the side panels with a hydraulic system. But to expensive.

Next update installing the water-cool stuff.

Soon more.
Here you can say what you think about it.

 

Update 6

 

awesome slick case, and i love the sunk drive bays with the glowing effect, i just may try to incoperate that into my case, i think it will fit in with my ideas so far

 

Update 7

This way said this way done, installing the watercooling.

One dual rad and 2 reservoirs in the top from the case.



A little space between the reservoir and the single rad, but enough.



Making the holes for the reservoirs, I not use a Dremel for that but a handsaw.









And also the hole for the dual rad.





Let’s give the inside a shine look. For that I use mirror plexi. And a saw machine



And there is only one single rad.







The 2 body’s for the pumps with some chrome.



This looks for me a good place for the pumps.



Than also making 2 holes in the mirror plexi. I don’t want any damage on the mirror plexi that’s why I taped it.



First impression with some green light.







Lets install the tubes.





And a close look.



And a total shot of the case.



Soon more.
Here you can say what you think about it.

 

Update 8

When you see the last picture in update 7 you also can see 2 power supplies 1 Targan the black one and one bon chic. The Targan is bigger then the Bon Chic. I can let the housing from the Tagan chrome. But than I can chance the power cables also and that is a lot of work. I can also try to put an Targan in a Bon Chic housing.



Left Targan right Bon Chic housing.



I have it for each other



Only I must place one 80mm fan outside.



Fill up the hole in the case.



Here some cables which go all in aluminium box.



And back on there place.



And from the back side.



And one from the front side.



Almost ready to go to the Dutch Casemod Championship.



And ready to go, to the Dutch Casemod Championship.



Soon more.
Here you can say what you think about it.

 

Update 7

Update 7 I forgot something is this update you can see that I chance the side panel from the watercooling for an sidepanel with window. I did that on this way.



Only for the plexi I use a machine to saw. I do the aluminium with the hand.

 

Update 8

@Philip1193, I don't know why it is so quiet here, maby i go to fast with the updates. I think it's better to wait with the next update to next year.
The case is 42,9 inch high

 

This is an awesome mod... I wonder why hardly anyone else seems to think that. Keep up the good work man

 

@SJH, thanks for the compliment. I think that the wait for the end result…… But that is the first picture in the opening post. Ore it has something to do with the Cable sleeve from the orac3…….I don’t know…….I hope I can keep up the good work. Today I go to work on my other casemod the Batcase. And I must push that one. Must by ready for the Cebit2006.

 

Update 9

Update 9

Now I start to make a window in the prometeia.



Complete striped.



Make it 9 cm longer than usual





Making the holes for the prometeia.





And the compressor back to his new place.



Some times it go better with a machine.



Than it’s better to use the right saw for that job.



Chancing the inside to a mirror place.







First total shot.



With some light.







Making a new mirror for the bottom





And than the casemod s ready…………….



After I chance the colour back to green.





This was making the Extreme Lian Li

 

update 9

And update 9

After the Dutch Casemod Championship I must see what I do stopping with casemodding ore go further. I decided to go on with casemodding. The reason of that is. Coolermaster was in the jury from the Dutch Championship and the sponsored the NR1 yes now I understand why somebody wins and why other people don’t have a chance to win. And I am the person that say something about that. Coolermaster and Casejunkies f**k up the hole Championchip. When there is some connection between jury and participant……….. I say then something like friend political

Also you can find on the site from Casejunkies a total copie from the mirror mod

 

Wow , what a case
Keep up the good work Edje

 

Ediejo, awesome work! Don't get discouraged because of the outcome of the Dutch Casemod Championship. Your case is awesome and you've contributed some great ideas to the casemod community! It'd be our loss if you decided to call it quits!

@ SharkBait, there was a period of discouraged. But that is behind me. So as you can see I chance some parts from the lian li after the Championship. It was more the way how...... than the result. And the comment the gave about it. You make it from 3 lian li cases ………. No 1
Then the ather comment the light what you see between the front and the sidepanel. That is not the right answer in my eyes. When you look good to some pictures you see the back from the watercooling that is open. Also the top panel is 3 mm to big I must chance that. When you say that to me as comment I give you high five than you have seen it right but this no way.

I decided to go on with casemodding, but I decided to stop with a continuation on a second championship. Now the chance is large that the jury assessed me about what was happening in the past. Instead of on my casemod.
