thx m8´s!

And the lord said
”Let there be light!”
And p0Pe said
“say plz”

Got my goods from matronics.dk ! and what a package!

So.. got the god ol’ soldering tools on the table “bed” and started getting the diodes on the pumps.

I haven’t soldered that much so I think the result was quite good! (not much to see though but it looks good aight? )

And light, with the flash

And without!

Money shot

And the remote control for the light

And the LED strips that’s gonna be the main light of the mod

And the last diodes will be places here (this is the 3 mm ones) I am thinking of ordering someone in a different colour in case I get tired of black and white. And since there is 4 holes to diodes, and the remote has 4 chanals I could mix another colour in (just cant decide wich:S)

[p0Pe]

My soldering skills = fail

Got the last filling on the res holder done

My workplace lol…

And cleaned

And as usual I messed it up after 30 mins;P

Got all the wholes drilled

And got the things drilled away that made the raddy a very tight fit… fits better now

Looks good

The dvd cover plate a damn nice fit!

Its hold in place by these 2 rivets in the one side

The cables from the Leds. Don’t look that bad

And got some holes drilled and tapped for the cover plate.

And some more spacers

To the cover plate hose entrance

And light! Got it all rigged most of it

Only one led in the res´s atm and still lights up pretty good

Placed one of the 10 cm led strips beside the fans

And looks quite good

I almost cant wait to get the last things drilled in place. Since I got my worktable cleaned everything has been a lot easier

Probertly wont get my laser stuff before Monday since there is some problems with the engraving

[p0Pe]

haha i might actually got some leds in spare;P

So… got some more laser cut parts and guess what?
Some fits, some don’t. measured once, twice and triple… hell.. I even quadro checked !

But this is what I got:

Loot

Can you guess what they are going to be used to ill show later

Along with the small parts I had another part made, because the other one I had didn’t fit well enough. (this is one of the parts that fits to the mm.! man I love when things turns out well

Got another back plate bend

Put in place:

And got the whole drilled for the led wire’s

Now back to these:

Taddaaa… got some of the hoses in place. This will look awesome with the fluid inthere!

This looked kinda messy:/

So moved it around to look like this:

The hoses has to end somewhere… in this case, under the res’s xD

And this is how it looks. The hdd loop is done, and is going to sit like shown in the pictures, and the gpu/cpu loop will go like, red pump (red impellar) – raddy – cpu – gpu – blue pump – res – red pump

After dark

Notice the little feature in the side of the front

Duo to this xD put another light in front. It looks awesome in the dark when the front is opened and closed!

thats about it! next up is paint xD... and some more parts.. when i get the last friggin parts remeasured 20 times to be sure... dont get it, they should fit

cu until next time lads!

[p0Pe]

thx the hose routing was also something that took me a while to figure out xD

Paint… paint paint paint

Managed to paint the test plate somehow reasonable and continued with the rest. A flie ruined one of the plates sadly so have to redo that one…

But that said it looks quite good

And now to put it in place and see how it looks

Wuhuu

And another cover plate I also got painted

And got these painted ;P

So… lets see how they fit and look!
Oh damn! With fluid and light this will be epic!

The bottom plate looks kinda wird, but that’s because the paint hadn’t dryid probertly. And its getting another layer or 2.

And with the raddy on!

thats about all until i get the last parts painted and when they dry i can start assembling it

until then! - cu

[p0Pe]

thx

now THIS is the result i wanted

[p0Pe]

finally an updata again ay? a small one, and not with all the little parts ive done in all this time, but time is short and ive torn apart the main pc so that i could put it into the case itself!

i got the last parts home, and sanded and painted them and fitted them on! and what a job.. took me whole day -.-

to start with! DnA ! it looks awsome IMO!

and got the plates fitted on! wuuuh

and how much you can see through the window

look at the raddy reflecting in the paint

and last, i got handles installed quite usefull since this thing already weighs a tonne!

sry for the lack of pics, and the crappy pic quality. i am hoping to get my hand on a decent camera in a week or so, but until then you have to settle with this

next up is routing hoses and finishing the light setup. i got some cool bouble lights that i have a plan with.

have fun!

-p0Pe

[p0Pe]

a quick update with hose routing

i might have more in a little while;P

[p0Pe]

and another!

so... i got all the light installed + i installed 2 bouble ccf.
and i installed the remote control

so, solderd on wich took me a while and then hocked it all up, and guess what?
IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM! cant tell you how absolutely awsome this remote is 4 chans!
chan 1 - bouble ccf
chan 2 - res & pump leds
chan 3 - led strips front and inside
chan 4 - free

and ofc, i took some pics but they dosnt really do the mod justiceas always it looks so much better IRL.

the remote:

and the bouble light

the res & pump leds:

the main light led strips:

and a with & without flash

with

without!

i am very satisfyid with the light results! came out better than i hoped for.

more hose routing:

and the messe backplate that will be hidden by the side, and thank god for that;P

thx for watching and reading

Looking way cool mate, water loop is looking really good. I love black with white LEDs, my next major mod will incorporate both lol. Looks like cable management is gonna be fard for you mate lol, good luck.

hah thx! as said i think the black and white fluid will be a neat combo;P

only thing i can suggest is have channel 4 for the on switch?? other than that.. i love it man very nice..

heh.. i actually thought about that and was quite hyped. then i came to think of it and the answer is: i cant
the controller runs on a 12 volt line from the psu wich requires to be off before it can be turned on off equals no power to the remote xDDDDDDD

[p0Pe]

so.. threw the black mesh window on again beacuse it fitted the theme better than the black acryllic window i planned (and the window wasnt as cool as intended -.-)

glory shots:

and ooh i like it;P spend 15 min in bed in the total dark last nigh and played with the remote controlled light i dont think ill ever get tired of that xDD

until next time:
