Case Mod - Complete L3p - Parvum - Mod Of The Year 2013 Nominee.

Thanks man!
When I work with UV active stuff I always use another ledstrip next to the UV one. This purely to hide that purple glow. Also what I did in the 'L3p D3sk' build with UV and blue ledstrips.

Thanks you
I was using this extender for testing purposes but all of a sudden I had a moment.
You can do so much different stuff with these long extenders

Haha this has been seen by others too on my Dutch buildlog Thanks!
Using this angle to fully show all blocks in one sight. Will be creating some sort of a rest for the gpu from POM.

Thanks man, hope you'll like this small build

 

Seen it too, intentional or not, it's awesome.

That stock cooler is really nice looking though but it will be far better cooled underwater, it's all looking nice this Peter & I agree, shame the mobo block doesn't come in the same material, would look pretty awesome.

I really like the 690, came close to buying one but went for 2 670s for lower cost, was starting to feel need for a bit more oomph, it is nice sliding all settings to max & feeling quite confident it will handle nicely, I held back on giving SLI a real chance for ages but I'm really happy with it, I remember getting crossfire when it was new & it mostly gave performance decreases so it put me off multi GPU for quite a while with paying double but getting less than single with high energy draw, seems it's been perfected for quite a while now & you get what you pay for.

Really could do with buying some bits boxes, I'm awfully organised & waste too much time looking for my bits, I'll get around to it eventually.

 

Thanks Waynio!
Asked EK if they would ever bring out this block in acrylic version but they don't. Ahh will just have to do
The bitboxes weren't that expensive, I believe around €3 each.

Already spotted some pics online from people polishing their waterblocks.
Seemed like a great plan for this build too




All I used for the polishing:
P1500 P2000 P3000 and wax




About 3-5 minutes with each for this result.




So lets do the rest too




Cpu block also done.




But was missing something.




So..












That's better.




Wanted to do it the easy way so kept the block and plexi in their place, just used a few pieces of tape to protect.












Took a little longer cause of the size.




Also replaced the old bolts for stainless steel ones, also polished those.






And the switch.




Result ..










I'm satisfied.




And in the spotlight 'spotlight'.

 

oohhhhh that looks so lovely, again as always amazing work and so much detail go into your builds. Love it!

 

Somehow that "slime green" coolant looks awesome. But I should expect no less from you
I have to admit, thecircle pattern looks a HELL of a lot better once polished.
less goat-sie, more goat-ee

 

I'm doing my build with the exact same blocls at the moment. I really want to see the loop filled, because I might want to polish mine as well

 

Sexy!

 

Looking really good! Also, what brand fans are those? I like them! And do they do red one's as well? Subbed + Rep!

 

To imagine I wasn't doing a mod .. just can't resist it
Thanks flame696!

Thanks a lot siliconfanatic!

Can't wait myself too but there's still a lot that has to happen

Thanks a lot guys!
I used green Nanoxia fans but next time I'm going to use Gelid green wings for a change
They aren't available in red by the way :/ Gelid does have them in blue.

 

Those blocks look soooo much better polished, I dunno what EK were thinking by not doing it ? I guess there's some accountant trying to save money somewhere.

 

ooooooo shinies
Really like those blocks.

 

amazing as always love them blocks to ^^

 

the cpu fastening plate needs a lot more of fine sanding

 

I already saw your polished RAM block on the EK idea boards and found it amazing and now I find out that you did the CPU and GPU block aswell?! Very nice L3P!
Any chance you will write a small guide on how to do it? Did you do it all by hand ?

 

Lot's of changes coming from EK soon I guess

Thanks guys!

Ahh a volunteer, please send a pm

Thanks mate
Well it's actually so easy ... this is a guide, all you need is some P1000-P2000 and polishing wax.
3 minutes of sanding and 3-5 minuts of polishing and you're done

 

Small mod this time

Because I'm using an EK MEM block for this build and since I'm going to use a Dominator Platinum kit tried to make something to keep the Platinum look.




At the start I wanted a small hole and keep the text.




But it disappeared after 5 seconds with P1000 .. it wasn't punched in that deep.






Time for an other approach.






Just a few hours of filings and sanding










And done.






Glued it on a few points.




I know it's a totally useless mod, specially since watercooling Ram isn't needed..
Still I like the looks and doing it

 

my god those ram heatsink mod looks awesome

 

MOOOORRRREEEEE of this is wanted

standard stuff just is not your thing eeehhh !?!?!?!? just absomafringginlutley beautifull RAM-coolling

 

That's a hell of a nice looking memory cooler mod.

 

You beat me to it!

Looks wicked anyways
