Case Mod - In Progress HEX GEAR R40 Engineering Station

That's settled, then. See you at MOTY.

 

that turned out great!
definitely has that distinct "pope touch™"
* and no, i am not comparing your case to a little child - just to get that out of the way...

lastly;
that looks like a lot of coolant!

 

Very nice indeed

 

Hah, only the future will tell!

Haha, thanks man!

There is actually "only" around 1.5L of coolant in it. The rear reservoir takes up 450 ml of those, and the internal reservoir another 140 ml. The rest is in blocks and radiators.

Thanks icelander!

I made a little video to show how I filled this thing up! I hope you will enjoy it

 

Omg, fantastic work, love that cable managment

Wow! To me it turned out gorgeous! I like it a lot.

BTW Never put the words "touch, Pope, little child" in the same sentence if you don't want a swiss guard with a knife between the teeth at your door...

 

Great build as usual, congrats on the Modding Update nomination.

I have to say, I was a little disappointed that you can't see the reservoir plate section from inside the case. It seems like a waste to have such a unique feature be hidden most of the time.

 

Very nice work. Great cable management --I especially like that little bracket to U-bend the GPU power cables. May have to steal be inspired by that idea... and do it in brass.

 

Love that fill video! And the GPU cables (so tidy). And the rear acrylic block. And the hardware. And, well, every damn thing about it!

 

Video is really nicely shot. Love the build

 

I just had to watch the whole video! Beautiful! Your build is spectacular and so detailed, I love the little numbers you engraved on the cable plate!

 

Looks like it made Gizmodo:

What a stunning, stunning build this is! Incredible stuff. That cable management is just flawless - the neatest and best looking I think I've ever seen. Top marks!

 

-Aaaand Gizmodo drew out the one-star troll.

 

Thanks Kviker! I am also especially proud of the cables

Thanks!

IMO the inside would have been too busy if I had incoorporated it into the inner of the case. I like this more. It might be hidden, but I know it is there.

Thanks man! That thing is a life saver. Definitely going to be doing more of those.

Haha thanks Bartacus! I am glad you like it!

Thanks! Was mighty fun shooting it too, and a bit stressing

Thanks Femke! The numbers where also quite helpfull when routing the cables around.

Sweet

Thanks Bawjaws!

Well, I am ok with that. The youtube video I posted went nuts, and currently have over 1.4 million views, easily taking out the video of Project N.V which "only" has around 850K views

 

As per usual, you're being a complete ****, just dishing out loads of HW PrOn

 

Then technically I am a producer, not the ****

 

So you're a pervert flaunting your 'product' about the place and very very nice it is too

 

Amazing work p0Pe, the cable plate and sleeving is pure genious, a work of art

Your photography ins't bad either incredible.
