[jojoharalds]

Hi everyone,

 

Like some of you may know,i made the thor desk last year 2013(wich got me the build of the week on linustechtips)

After using the desk for almost a year now,i thought to myself,lets make some changes(since there were some things i always wanted to change,

and i wanted to do it with acrylic Tubing)

 

So i will be sharing that process with you,i hope you will like it,i certanly love doing it

 

ToDoList:

 

1)Lower the legs

2)More Radiators,for better cooling

3)Acrylic Tubing (A must have if you have done it before)

4)All the fittings alike(the last time i went with what i had,EK,Bitspower and koolance)now only bitspower

5)Extra Compartment for poweradapter with 10 connectors ,Router,and External HDD's)

6)SSD mounting cage (build into the Wall of the desk)

7)Usb Connection on the outside of the Case(i have to see with that when i get further along)

8)Cutom Acrylic Motherboard tray wit LED

9)New Fans From Corsair (Corsair AF 120 LED blue)+

10)Vandal Power and reset Button

11)Drain and Fill Port ( A must have on any watercooling Pc,makes Live alot easyier)

12)And probably find some more ideas as i go (wich i will of course keep you posted on)

Followed I enjoyed looking through the last build log  

[jojoharalds]

Here are the radiator mounts (since i wanted to put in some extra cooling,

240 and 360 EK PE Coolstream side by side,since they are quite slim i was abler to put the in the small compartment where the powersupply will be.

 

And I already shortened the legs ,since i want to be able to mount 2 extra 24" screens on top of the 2 x 27",

so i dont want to have the setup to high,took off 10cm .

[jojoharalds]

HUGE Thank you To corsair for beeing so kind and sending me this Carepackage.

LOVE IT!

SSD  Drive Cage for the 2 Corsair drives (in Progress)

 

And i came to a conclusion ,

its dabgerous to go shopping

I needed one drill bit,

bought the one ,but ended up with a whole set extra,with about a hundred bits

Inside of the desk?

 

I find the wood unappealing, and a powder coated metal look would be pretty interesting.

well there is no point on spending a ton of money on almost the most expensive wood out there,if would than make it look like a normal standart pc case(metal black)

so no i am not goong to paint it,since the idea was to fit the desk together woth the rest of the furniture in the living room.

Working on the Door for the Underthedesk Compartment for router and power adapter.

This will be the door handle.

 

[Prokart2000]

may i ask how do you get corsair to send you stuff?

his first desk was pretty succesfull i guess.

[jojoharalds]

Under the Desk compartment almost done (on the Thor D3sk)

Some Detail work left.And maybe integrate some more ideas.

 

In this compartment will be:

 

Poweradapter for 10 power connections (for screens,powersupply,lightning,router,exteral HDD,canon batterycharge,and more)

 

Only 2 cables will leave the Desk.1 Power cable,and Phone line for the highspeedinternet.

 

 

[jojoharalds]

Started on the interior of the compartment under the Desk,power adapter installed(but still have to route the cable somewhere nice)

and lightning adapter mounted on the wall as well(this will be much cleaner than the previous Thor D3sk V1)
