Pookey mate...that looks the dogs! I never realised how well a UV LED worked inside the lucite tops, might have to give it a go for my next mod BTW, received the parcel this morning, cheers
They're not UV LEDs.. they're pink. They WERE.. the weirdest thing has happened.. they've changed colour... they're now more of a purple... No idea why.. they're not overvolting, cos there's a 300Ohm resistor in line for each one, so I have no idea. I've had this with purple and pink LEDs before however... they lose they're pinkness. If they change anymore, I'll replace them and increase the resistor. Leeum: CHeck your post this morning. Shadowed: How the hell you getting a 15 panel into your case???? Cheers guys.
Nice and clean mate. I personally think that a PS1 screen would look v sweet in this as the splash of motion on the front would serve as a great counterpoint to the vast monolithness of the case, whilst still maintaining that theme (?) MrWillyWonka did this really well in his stacker mod - can't remember what its called though DOH!
Yeah... not a bad idea. Not sure what to replace them with yet tho. The usual off the shelf ones are a bit naff... may design my own if I can. Any ideas?
I'm sure MDK will do you some - Think the design has to be rounded or something since he hasn't got a laser cutter.
Well, they're not purple anymore...In fact, they are officially a non-colour, since all of our LEDs have mysteriously decided to stop working. Please don't shout at me...I swear it isn't anything I've done!!!
Nope... my terrible maths when calculating the required volt drop/current limiting resisitors... Oh well.... only a couple of quids worth of LEDs... Lesson learned... a 3.4V 30mA LED needs a 330Ohm resistor, NOT a 270 one... Ooops!
looks bloody amazing! so damn clean :O its unbelievable loving the way you routed the rear fans invisible wiring
I'm glad jalousy itself doesn't kill people, or you would have been killed . Just kidding, like this combo of colors very much, put my hands together for this one...
I love the clean appearance of this mod. The watercooling looks fabulous - the choice of colours was an excellent one
I must admit, I had misgivings at first...Then again, I was experiencing visions of hi-tech Barbie playsets...But those LEDs are not really pink-pink, are they? They're sort of a purplish-pink which goes well with the violet...er...thingy in the pipes. Anyhow...still think we should get light-up molex connecters for the drives... I don't think it's overkill at all! Might even balance out the colour scheme a wee bit...ICHIBAN!
simply amazing, i think that the next thing you should do to it, should be put another 7800 in there then that would be the best rig that you can get lol
Way ahead of you... LOL As soon as I can get hold of a SLI waterblock in the UK for a reasonable price, and the price of the XFX 7800 comes down a bit once the 512 version is available in larger numbers... a second one goes in there. That's the beauty of buying a SLI motherboard, even if you're only buying one GPU. Thanks for the comments guys.
Interesting. There is a NV78 on the DD website... was just waiting to see if Paul was gonna stock them. I can't possibly convince my other half that buying another 7800 so close to Xmas is necessary anyway... so it will be a new year job this.
Great build Pookeyhead Luv your set-up. btw: What digicam are you using. Your photo quality is really nice
