The fact of what you can do with a mod, kier, is already mind-blowing. Add that to a scratchbuild... It already looks epic. Almost Attila- like in styling
Thanks Thanks, but i think everything square isn't that nice also E22 Kier and scratch we shall see Be my guest Thanks Hmmm, the USB. lol forgot about them....thanks for the reminder Yes totally different, but i like it very much this scratch building I will try to keep it up I wish
Trust me. kier. You are neck-and-neck with attila in terms of talent. The big difference Is you do more watercooling And seeing that you are currently on your first scratchbuild makes me all the more excited to see what other touches you'll be adding
Update!!! Sponsored by: And designed by: This time a big update. To start with the rad brackets. Dont want this to be too complicated because I still want enough space behind. Just a plate with an aluminium edge. And have it rest on the horizontal bars Next job ... a PSU cover. Measured and cut a piece of acrylic and drawn the shape of the PSU grill. Cut the grill shape Made a bracket to keep the PSU in place. And placed it Removed the tape Polished the edges Now a little bit time consuming work ... in other builds I've done this before. Ie. single wires true holes. A piece of acrylic, take some measurements on the PSU outputs, and drill some holes Done by hand so not all straight but this will not be visible later on. Pasted red vinyl and put sleeved extensions true the holes Placed and plugged in Did the same thing to the PCI-e cables Nice sleeve curtain All is finished, 24-pins, PCI-e, CPU and molex A lot of work, but then you have something Dismantled everything again because I had a nice idea. Placed a LED strip under the edge of the acrylic cover. red Once busy with LED strips, I came up with the idea of placing some more strips underneath the fans for more red edges. More to come!!!
black rain of wires looks awesome! Not knowing it is scratch build one could imagine this is a SS Fortress mod keep it up, Kier, also 5 stars!
That cabling....oh dear oh lord, looks just amazing, not seen it like that before , nor done aswell Well done, well done indeed
I agree that merely boxy is boring. I wasn't sure how I liked those angles in the big picture, if you will. But rather than putting the bar high (comparison to Attila..cut that man some slack ), it is after all your first con! And for that, it is really awesome. Precision-work as always. Those pictures of the last update are sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I will admit to thinking before this last update it looked a bit boring still. Very conservative. But with that red led-magic added...Reminds me once more that sometimes less is more! Yet still, you keep mindf***ing us, at the same time doing that PSU-cable mod that looks everything but simple. It's a good combination. My conclusion? You got taste, sir! Assuming this won't be your last scratch-build, my impression is we can expect great things from you Kier
I like this build a lot... A very nice design by E22 there, and very well executed man. Love what you´ve done with the cables. A black waterfall, stunning!
This just strikes me as being a very, very interesting design, and I'm in love with how you've pulled it off! The case looks like a miniature showroom!
Thanks no more Case-----modding for me Thank you Hope so Lot of work but worth it Thanks mate, and i think your right...this will not be the last, beginning to like it Thanks, and yes the design is great. All credits goes to Nate Thanks Thanks Nate
Update!!! Sponsored by: And designed by: Last update to end the weekend. The first front plate I have made new with different measurments for the fans, so first one was over. Cut the Fanholes. Some small changes Cleaned And made an opening for better reaching the aquaero and res Made it black again Placed 2 other GPUs for measurments. Still waiting for the hardware .... and I want to go on So no time for waiting Tubing time!!! Can't help it but I need to have everything straight ... think it's starting to get an obsession CPU going up And GPU's going up Nice and clean For now connected it with adapters, but soon with acrylic tubes. Still need to make nice plate for this. Some detail shots Last think I did is making the midplate black. This is finished (I think) because I will run the PCI-e cables through the slanted plate. That's it for this weekend
Kier... I love your new obsession! Those straight tubes look very, very sexy. Clean, organized, slick, elegant. Just so right! I hope however you are not developing an obsession with black? This looks very nice and understated (which isn't a bad thing at all!), however I can't help but feel that you could reaaaally do something very nice with more vibrant colours - an environment where many others have failed before. And no, white does not count as a colour Maybe think along the lines of anodized blue alu, along with some orange and a few white highlights...Any chance you might be headed towards such by any chance? (p.s.: i'm thinking of future builds with my 2nd & 3rd paragraph, not this one..in case that is not clear )
Omg...your right, another obsession. Didnt see this coming I like the idea of more colors, so maybe in my next (scratch) build Thanks mate for the warning
