    So, now you're not only an ASUS and Bitspower whore, but also a Dremel whore?
    You're a pretty high-class hooker. ;)

    No, seriously: WELL DONE!
    I got a couple of those Dremel accessories myself - but I'd like to see if that router table is any good. Do you plan to use it soon?

    One of the first mods I'm reading through and I’m loving it ! So jealous of the Dremel parts. Keep it up, looking forward to seeing it finished!

    Here an explanation why it all takes a little longer then expected :)

    Well some packages took a few months to arrive.
    Also the 2 Matrix cards from Asus will not find it's place in my mod cause of a little mistake :)
    Rogier from Asus Benelux fully compensated this with the best news I could get...
    Instead of 2 Matrix cards..... An Asus Mars II !!!! (And yes I want to watercool it :p)

    Thanks Rogier, you really rock!!! :rock::rock:

    Another thing that kept me from going on.. my attic is completely ready to mod there.
    The problem is, my 1 yr old daughter sleeps very bad. (Yes she's like her dad, starts living when it's dark)
    So I moved the pc downstairs again this weekend. Now i can go on modding in the night ;)


    Changed the black and blue Asus GX800 for a black and red Asus GX900

    Also been playing again with the RGB leds, want to place 2 strips on both sides for a nice effect.

    Maybe going to use an RF controller, going to test this week if that one has a red-glow-up-and-down function.

    And a picture of how cosy I'm sitting at the kitchen table again. :)

    Ok, we know that the computer itself is going to be an expensive ************, but I also keep looking at that box full of Bitspower fittings. It's like a casemodder's gold chest you got there, my friend!

    It's kinda crazy with the ASUS Mars II.

    According to this test the card uses 64 watts when idle and a whopping 729 watts during peak - that's quite a lot, if not the worst I've ever seen! And no, those are not The-complete-system numbers - those are the numbers for just the card, measured directly on the PCI-E inputs... :worried:

    I'm not really jealous, more filled with raging hatred right now! :lol:

    Nah, I have to join in and agree that if anyone deserves it, it would be you! Kickass as usual m8! :thumb:

    Btw... If I wasn't full up with my mods and life in general, I'd probably volunteer to make that waterblock... :)

    There are lots of other guys who deserve even better, but thanks m8 :)

    I was able to do this since almost 65% is sponsored of this build. It was always a dream of me to build a highend pc in an Origen AE case. Never expected that it would be these parts :thumb:
    The box also contains spare fittings from my desk. Also the reason i chose BP black sparkle :)

    Thanks a very lot m8! :rock::rock::rock:

    It has worried me a bit from the start, 2 x Matrix would have pulled the same i guess.
    Ahh well we'll see how it works out, i love a challenge :cooldude:

    Thanks a very lot guys!
    As EKWB sponsored me 2 universal block for the Matrix cards i want to try to give them the honour to cool it with those or an other EKWB block.
    The problem is, i guess, the NF200 chip between the 2 Nvidia GPU's.
    I was also thinking about a gtx590 block and dremel it to fit the Mars II since the pcb's look like each other a lot
    Hmmm ... :idea:
