Hey everyone, welcome to my build log for my "Riddler" build. I have a H440 Special Edition Green Case and I'm going with the "Riddler" theme from Batman. Decking it out with Green and Purple, this build will have a beautiful airbrushed mural on the case to go with the added touches of vinyl to make the build really pop. It will have the Riddler standing over Gotham city wrapping around the case. I Plan on doing Water Cooling and for the liquid I have decided to go with Green and will be using Mayhem's coolants. I'm using Darkside's LED's to illuminate the case and bring out the colors and shine. I will be using vinyl to fill in section throughout the build to add color and character, including the EK badges and the yellow designs on my MSI Mpower board and much more. I've included custom Purple anodized screws to help balance the Purple and green and to bring a little dazzle to the build. Leave your comments and post your opinions. Suggestions are always welcome. I hope you enjoy watching this build come alive.

Thanks for checking out my build and I'll post pics up and update as I go along for you all.

NEEDS MORE FRONT IO SHOTS

That is a beautiful case, but really? Comic Sans? :P

 

Looking forward for how it will turn out.

New to Star Citizen? Look no further!

Are you sure you want to use the Mpower?

I'm thinking some kind of a Gigabyte Sniper may look better, then again, I am a bit colourblind.

You can remove the yellow covers on the Z77 Mpower if you didn't already know.  I'd suggest you do it as it makes the board look WAY better IMO.  

Not the best picture, but here's my WIP rig with the mpower's cover removed as an example.

I do like the Sniper MB, but with the Mpower board you can't see as much of the pcb tracers, plus it's painted a matte black like the case. I have three options with the board, either I can leave the yellow (cause the riddler has a little yellow to him) or peel off the yellow and leave it all black, or I can just paint the yellow parts green. Nice suggestion though, I was thinking of that board too.

Yes thank you, I did know they could be taken off. I've been debating whether to take it off, paint it, or leave it.

I got this same case for my birthday which was on mother's day :3 and I must say that she is on my list of the most beautiful things in the world right after Megan fox and tacos :3 I am planning on getting a gigabyte g1 sniper and the new 4790k when it comes out to replace my blue motherboard. The last thing I need to replace is my ram because it's red :3

wow, thats a lot of bees!

Happy Belated Birthday ^_^

 

I got this case for Mother's day lol

 

I was thinking about getting the sniper but got the Mpower board instead, made up my mind that I'm going to paint the yellow that's on the board green. I use to have a blue MB as well and then switched it out for this one. My ram was red too, I got the corsair vengeance to switch it out. It matches the case nearly perfectly.

 

This week I'll be working on the build, setting it up, and I'll add more pics soon.

Update 2:

 

Ordering some White LED's, heat shrink (for sleeving the fan wires), and more of my Coolink fans tomorrow.

 

Plan on putting all of it in my new case once I receive everything.

 

Pics coming soon!

Update 3: Got my LED's and more fans. Put it in my new awesome case :D

 

This is not the end of my modding.

 

I have some more things in mind like a nice paint job on the case (such as a mural) and some beautiful water cooling coming up.

 

Please, Tell Me What You Think. :)
