Projekt *Nonameyet*! Successor to White Death.

[Bubblies]

Hello everyone!

 

I'm now beginning my new build, something... Don't have a name yet, if you got any suggestions feel free to share! I'm really stuck on this!

 

This will be the successor to White Death. My CaseLabs STH10 build I just finished and sold. It's only been a day, but hey! Modders got to mod!

Build log for White Death can be found here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/461137-white-death-caselabs-sth10-build/

 

This build will be a red and white build, nothing will be left unmodded!

I will not be watercooling anything yet, but maybe in the future.

For now I'll focus on the modding.

 

This build will pretty much be my tryout as a genuine modder. I will try my best on this and (hopefully) continue modding for many years to come.

 

Specs for this build:

 

• Case: NZXT 440 White edition
• Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 7
• CPU: Intel Core i7 6700k
• GPU(s): MSI 980 ti Gaming
• RAM: HyperX Predator DDR4 2800MHz
• Storage: 1x 240GB  HyperX Predator M.2 + 2x 480GB HyperX Savage
• Power Supply: Corsair RM850
• Fans: Not decided yet.
• Custom sleeved wiring: Extensions or straight from PSU

And probably a ton of custom cut acrylic and other stuff. Will list updates here.

 

I'm open to suggestions along the way, not 100% sure what I'm gonna do with some of the components. But together we will get there!

 

And I'm not that great at photography, so if you have any advice for me there, I'm open for it!

I spent the past few seconds trying to pronounce nonameyet before I realized what is actually said.

If you're currently running the setup in your signature, wouldn't this actually be a considerable step down in total performance?

I'm not, that build was White Death, I got a build log for it here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/461137-white-death-caselabs-sth10-build/

 

It will be a step down, but I don't need that massive of a computer anymore. And I would like to focus more on the modding part instead of the crazy monster pc part.

So my STH10 build is now sold, so I bought parts for this build instead.

 

Will upload the first batch of updates as soon as I have resized them. That 2mb size limit is annoying!

Hahahahahaha, I KNEW this comment was coming, I had to look twice to make sure I didn't just scramble something weird myself.

Update #1: First shipment arrived!

 

Got the first batch of parts arrived. Which is fortunate because this batch is the main modding parts.

Everything here except CPU (And RAM which I forgot to place in the first picture), wiring and some fans I'm still waiting for.

 

This seems a bit excessive packaging?

 

Not exactly new, it's from an old build I did.

 

Not sure if I will use this or mod one myself. We'll see how it looks after some modding!

Update #2: The Teardown.

 

Just started taking some components apart for painting, I will finish this up tomorrow and hopefully start painting before long!

 

 

 

About as far I'm gonna go on the case for now, unless I suddenly change my mind and start cutting.

 

 

Kitty break! We all need it at one point..

 

 

First paint job on the SSDs will be white for the background, then paint the X white and keep the writing metallic.

 

 

The RAM will be painted the same as the SSDs

 

 

 

Any ideas as to what I can do about this ugly thing?

I was thinking about covering it up, but fear it will heat up.. Any suggestions would be nice!

 

Done for today, will be back tomorrow with a new update!

Wll this might take a little longer than I expected, I ran out of both spray paint, acrylic, and covering tape.

I will be updating shortly with a few test setup pictures. But the modding will have to wait a few days.

 

Stay tuned, I will try and update with what I got at least.

[Snooli]

I'd cover it with heatsinks and paint those.

Always like H440 builds. Subbed

Update #3. Custom sleeving.

 

 

I just finished up my extensions, not with cable combs just yet, they haven't arrived yet.

Huge thanks to Icemodz.eu for the tools, wire and everything!

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the actual sleeving. 
Note there will be cable combs on them once they arrive!

 

 

 

I know, I screwed up on the end back there. But it won't be showing, so screw it

 

 

The 24-pin extension cable will be curved, I saw that in another build and thought it looked amazing with cable combes.

 

 

Also, I will be getting spray paint soon, so I will be updating the actual build as soon as possible!

 

 

And again, if anyone have any advice on my photography that would be great. I don't have the best camera (Canon EOS 100D) and not the best lens for these kinds of photos. I can't take any super up-close and sexy pictures. And I don't have a tripod/stand to get the perfect still pictures.. 

Still I hope their adequate and watchable!

[Dacho]

I love those cables. Gonna be goood!
