    Thanks Joe, stoked to get an update posted. It will come soon. Perhaps some drawing and a render next update, still waiting to confirm some gpu stuff.

    New CNC is wonderful. It's like a dream for sure. Works flawlessly. Precision is out of this world and it frees our staff up so so much now. Can really start to meet stock requirements.

    Sorry for the delay y'all!

    To update you on some things at the warehouse first. We have been busy.. more busy then ever. We have still been trying when possible to custom mod some Parvum cases, these have been ticking over nicely. In between that we have been working on a bunch of stuff for Nvidia. We did a series of cases for an American prebuild company that will be being used at LAN and show events by Nvidia themselves. We have also done a few custom battlebox cases.

    Next in line will be a massive restock of the mATX case. We then plan to get the ITX case out to retailers. We are looking at the end of November for these.
    Finally we have a new guy at Parvum, Stephen is his name! Please flame away if you are an EVEN rather than a PHEN ;D! You may well see his hands in this project... maybe.

    SO TO THE UPDATE!!
    Sorry this really is a filler update. Show you all some hardware going in so we can then at least get down to the more fun stuff... custom res', straight tubing.. the usual!

    Thought I'd start things off by showing you an ITX rig we did for a close friend. Managed to cut build and fill in one day. *There goes our only day off*...
    Really stoked on it. Custom modded the case to fit an extra 120mm rad PSU side so this little guy has 2 x 120mm rads cooling the CPU:

    [​IMG]

    So to MAGNUS! We start with a cheeky 4770k! Thank you Jim and thank you Intel for the support, without it... well, we would be CPUless... haha:

    [​IMG]

    Next what will cool the chip... this build we have gone fully XSPC. This is due to wanting to go down a slightly new route on our builds and having a close friend at XSPC. It's nice to support them, one small company to another:

    Next a little teaser of whats to come... HUGE block to mill something nice and custom:

    [​IMG]

    Some of you may have noticed this feature from the render, but almost 500mm of hard line tubing will be inlaid into each side at the front of the case. Will be a great feature with the fluid:

    [​IMG]

    So more hardware show-off... thanks again to Jim over at Kingston. He's gone all out on this build as you will see a little bit later. But first.. some RAM, 32GB in fact!

    More XSPC as we block up:

    Up next is another lovely item from Asus.. Sorry I did say this was a hardware update.
    Thanks Gareth, I know GPU situation was a headache for this build!

    [​IMG]

    Really nice packaging and the stock cooler!! :O, it's a shame we have to remove the thing. Asus have done a really great job with this cooler:

    It would be rude not to show you the board with blocks and a cheeky GPU test fit:

    That's all for today. Sorry it took a while to get it to you and then it was ultimately just some hardware.. but like I said.. now the hardware is in place we can figure out the fun stuff!

    Thanks for reading! Show some love! :D

    I'd show some love, but I might get banned from the forums. And get arrested.
