Scratch Build – In Progress ****** PHINIX CUBE ******* - the one and only:)

Thanks!

Thanks Cheaps! I know.. it has been 2 years, I cannot believe that its done!
Yep, That superglue sucks, new glue is ok, makes small stains but at least they are clear transparent

Thanks man - well, I don't have any good equipment except my camera, but no lightroom or anything like that. May create sth to make some good photos, will see...

There is a professional photographer coming to me this week from CustomPC, so you may see some nice pics in new issue (June)

Thank you Adam - This is what I really like - someone who read all my log and feels same what I felt during last 2 years - that is why our worklogs are so that importnant and amazing - they show not only our work, but also our life, what's happening wiht us and all other things. Its great to have readers like you , thanks again and hope you enjoyed your lecture

OK. Just small heads up - tomorrow is 3rd of June - it will be a full 2 years since I started my work on this Cube (inicially work log started on Sudhian forum) and that is why tomorrow I will show last photos of it. Yep. All done, working perfectly, The Cube is closed, everything went well. Yesterday I glued last part - two biohazards logos on both side panels. That was a last part to do.

So till tomorrow guys...

...

 

Had a quiet moment in work so had a read through all 29 pages of this. Unreal, simply unreal the amount of time and effort. It's logs like this that inspire me to give it a go. Go beyond the usual waterloop in a standard case and actually TRY something.

Thank you phinix for sharing this with us.

 

Looking angrily at the clock to go faster...

 

Pics dude i wanna see it done.

 

That mate is a build to be very proud of

 

Thats guys
Please be patient - I'm at work right now, will make some pictures this evening

 

Dude hows the cpu clocking?

 

double post...

 

ok.. this is not funny... I cannot turn my camera on... Battery may be dead...

I haven't tried OC yet, cpu and gpu is running on stock clocks, but before I put it on with water on stock cooler I had 4GHz with stock voltage. Right now in my room is 30C so don't want to play with OC. Idle temps are 38-40C. The whole week was very hot here and my room has open area to attic which is even hotter, that is why it keeps the temperature so long..

Anyway.. I have to wait with pictures till tomorrow, battery is charging up right now and its getting dark. I want to make some photos with day light, already prepared the place for it - I put huge white sheet on the floor and covered part of the wall so amateur's "lightroom" is ready for action..

05/06/09 - EDIT:
Camera still not working. I think battery is really dead, I will take care of this when come back - have a flight tomorrow, will be away for few days, coming back Monday night, so I will not add last pictures till next Tuesday or so.. sorry about that.. divine intervention

 

lol @ perplekks45

Alright I see the photo shoot approaching... bring on the model! :wolf whistles:

 

Any updates mate?

 

How have I managed to miss this mod?

Great work, need to go and read all of the log now, gonna take ages!!

 

Guys...

During that last 2 years I have experienced something really special - I went through this build not alone, but with all of you guys, all modders around the world. We all were together during this time and I have to say HUGE THANK YOU to all of you - it has been quite a ride. I enjoyed it very much. Every your comment, advice, every post… Every word in this work log has been read thousands of times. Right now the counter stopped at 106,569 views – that is enormous number, that I never expected. That means that you guys really enjoyed it and I did something that was actually worth to watch (I hope)…

2 years ago I found a new hobby, I have tasted something new and liked it.
During these years I become a part of this big, incredible community, that all modders and IT enthusiasts are part of...

Maybe its sounds like a “goodbye” letter.. but it is not.. it’s just a beginning…

I hope that my build will be an inspiration for others, same as I found it in previous amazing works.


No more words.. just visual feast... Here it is....

​

 

nice man, thanks for sharing the pics feast! congrats for the build, looking forward to the new build!

Now the the case i build is time to start the new one! on

 

That is one beautiful cube you've built. Reading the entire log from start to finish (hey it's a quiet night in here thankfully), once again inspires me to try my hand at modding.

It's a wonderful mod, and many many congratulations on getting it done.

 

congrats man! it turned out incredible! I love the crysis style ring thing on the front!

 

I don't think there's anybody who could say anything about the craftmanship. The design is definitely not everyone's favourite but I love it!

Thank YOU for sharing it! Congratulations to finishing a stunning mod!

 

Very well done Phinix. Great pictures, great finish and above all - an inspiring mod.

 

Dude, congratz on the completion of the mod. I have watched this mod evolve a long way, you should be very proud with your final product. It is an amazing piece of craftsmanship.+rep

 

^What he said! Absoutely amazing bit of craftsmanship. Totally awesome rig. You should be proud having that sitting on your desk and silently growling at you.

Congrats, mate!
