Scratch Build – In Progress Epic PC's Carbide Series is now the Lamptron Vector Series! 12.8.2011

Brace yourselves for a massive update. Uploading to the host now.

Ready?

Okay


First up is the motherboard tray for Wrath of God, a surprising amount of work goes into each tray and if you have ever made your own motherboard and IO plate, you'll know what I am on about!



As you can see, we are working on both cases at the same time. For reference, that small thing to the right of your screen? Thats an Antec 1200.



The first case is the whole baazing! I am doing the install for it. Not a bad pair (the cards that is).


If you are ever doing anything block related, you need some quality alcohol.




Not bad, not bad at all!


Twins! As you can see, a large table helps.






Took some time out for a photo op with the monsters, my word these things are huge...


After a little clean up, we were ready to start again.


A 980X without a waterblock on it? We can fix that.


Fixed!


In goes one....


There goes two...


That rampage block is a thing of beauty.


I manage to make EATX look small





I need some fittings and some natural sunlight so I can really take some photos. I am thinking about a connector for the crossfire and the black EK ones would seem the natural choice. I will see

Until next time!

 

Dear God, those are some huuuuge ************s right there. (Oh, no, they'll censor the crap out of that comment)

Do they really NEED to be that huge?

 

This case was never about need =) . I am (right now actually) designing a smaller cheaper case for the market though.

 

Of course it needs to be that big... where else are you gonna hide when the wife sees the credit card bill for it?

 

They both look fantastic mate, excellent work. Seeing the comparison between an Antec 1200 and your Carbide cases really puts their size in perspective. They are monstrous! Now you have me thinking about all the epic hardware I could squeeze inside one .

 

How tall are they again? just wondering which is taller yours or mine , think mines at 740mm or 750mm .

Looking excellent though mate .

 

These beasts are 806mm tall, 265mm wide. Winning! (jks)

 

Wowzers, that is big hope to see some builds with these once they spread around .

 

Nice case! And I'm curious to see how you are going to fill that massive space so it doesn't look empty..

 

Well you got the Wrath of God version which is going way hardcore with the hardware. One of the few builds that will actually need dual PSU's.

Two words: Dual loop

 

Awesome huge build Djayness .

 

Am I the only one who can't see any of the pics posted in this thread?

EDIT: For some reason it's only in Chrome I can't see any pics.. working fine with IE9

on topic, that is a freakishly good looking case, albeit a bit on the huge side

 

those things really are monsters .
Great project. Really love plexi cases

 

They look awesome.



BTW, the guy in the 8th photo down looks like Borris from James Bond - GoldenEye.

 

ahahahah
"i am invincible"?

 

:O two of them...you sir are crazy

 

AWESOME! And there I was thinking that previously my build at 70 cm was freakishly tall! XD

 

Thanks Riek!

I only use chrome and I can see the photos fine. Is anyone else having similar issues?

LOL Borris! I think I will take that as a compliment. The resemblance is uncanny

Actually, I have crazy customers!

I am building a LAN case that will go up on my site in a month or so as well, it is about half the height of this case . More on that in a week!

 

I only use chrome too and the images are fine. Case looks great

 

Hey you're from Brissy too



Massive tease, I would post up everything but its 3am -_-

The Dual res's are in, the rad is down bot and the drive bays are also in




Also there's that custom ram cooler I made out of 10mm thick acrylic. Not bad for a first try!
