Case Mod - Complete #Pure sponsored by Thermaltake and MSI

Hey, thanks for checking out my build log for #Pure.


I couldn’t have done this build if it was not for the sponsors, MSI Thermaltake, To the wire sleeving.






This build will have a white, blue and frosted theme and I want the case to keep its external look and at the centre of the build it will have the Ryzen 2700x.

This is what I want to do,



Parts l will be using,

CPU - Ryzen 2700x

Motherboard – MSI B450 tomahawk

Ram – Corsair Vengeance RGB 16gb

Graphics card – MSI Gaming RTX 2070

Storage – Unknown

Case – Thermaltake A500

Psu – Thermaltake Toughpower grand RGB 850W

CPU Block – Thermaltake Pacific W5

Rad – Thermaltake Pacific C360

Fittings – Thermaltake C- Pro

Pump – Thermaltake Pacific P1

PCI-E Cable – Thermaltake Premium 3.0 300mm.

I don’t want to keep this build on my bench too long so I have made a design and want to stick to it, I will be re-making all of the internals and we will just be keeping the frame and the external shell.


Here are a few photos of the products,

 

Hey, hope everyone had a good weekend.


So this is the case,








I remove psu cover and motherboard tray.





I made a model out of cardboard to make sure I got the correct sizes for the perplex





After I did this I removed the IO shield and graphics card supports from the back of the case so I can move this to the top of the case.














Once I cut the case up I new I would need to replace the back of the case, I made a quick design on fusion 360 and made a new back panel, this will include displayport and 2 usb 3.0.








I chopped down an old bracket for the thermaltake p3 to help support the graphics cards so it can hang down in the case.





This is the point I needed to stop as I needed to pick up the perplex for the next stage of the project.


This is where we are up to.

 

This week I made the the custom motherboard tray with built in res, I used 10mm acrylic to do this.




the start of the motherboard tray.









Making the motherboard res.









Test fit with the motherboard.



Need to add the custom o-rings









Wanted to see what the water manifold would look like with some water in.




I will be down I64 this weekend so this is where I will stop for this week. You can see its starting to take shape.




next post we should have the cables the covers and the tubes ran.

 

Hey, not posted in a while, just been really busy.


I have an update and the build is now complete and you can see it on the thermaltake stand at EGX this weekend.


So we left off with the shell of the build and the basic layout of the case,





I had my buddy Michael from to the wire to pop over and help with the cables.








I decided to strip the case and paint it white.





I think it turned out great.


Once the case was painted I just need to put everything back in and run the tubes.











Now its time to start work on the basement.




Now the best part the final photos,

Hope you all like the build, just want to say a big thank you to thermaltake and MSI for the support.
