Case Mod - In Progress NV Luxury : Water Cooled Compact ITX

Sanjaya · 20 Mar 2018

Hei Guys, I am back again active in the community.
I was working at one of the top hardware manufacturers, but i resigned and now its time to focus on modding.

I am sorry for leaving out crysis project halfway through. I will redo the thread.

SO HERE WE GO!!!

Project NV Luxury is one of those dream projects that starts with so many hopes. The mod is to be a super small ITX which is portable and premium.
It will have hand stitched leather with aluminum shell. I will use the chassis of a prototype case that I got when I was working. I am not gonna go too much into details of it.

Life certainly plays a joke on you. Finally when I thought there was some free time, my dad had a stroke and had to do bypass surgery. So No Modding. No Anything Else.

Now he is recovered and now I am back to work in Taipei again. But let me start with the work log. I will be posting at least once a week.

We start with a BitFenix Portal ITX case, remove the external shape and make a custom fan mount in the front to house 2x 120mm fans using Aluminum.

We then use Aluminum sheet to make a shell around the frame.

Then Cut out the NVidia Logo with the Jig.

Now drill 100s of holes and stitch the leather
This was a very tiring process. all together this took more time and effort than all of the other stuff on this Mod.

Glue the leather on

Now Stitch

Next week I will bring more updates on the Mod
