[MSI PRO MOD S3] KRAIT VENOM

[ciobanulx]

 

Hey guys,

 

All of the panels on the case are done and the case is getting powder coated in a satin black, should turn out good.

 

Here it is before it went away!

 

Once done I will mount some thumb screws towards the front of the case to hold the panels to make it easier and also the front panel is offset a bit and I will do it a bit more, this is purely for airflow as the fans will be pulling air in from there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for checking it out!

 

Cheers,

 

Alex

Could you turn the full sized Phanteks Evolv into a reverse-ATX case for a future mod? It would definitely be something I'd like to see from you - being one of the best modders and all.

 

The panels you've made fit the shape of the case perfectly. Looks great!

Haha thanks a lot man

 

Oh yes I would love to work on the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX, I'm actually looking at it for a potential project but wasn't thinking of reversing it however it could be done

[linusis]

looks awesome so far

Thanks a lot

Hey guys,

 

With the case now getting powder-coated it is time to start adding details to the rest of the components!

 

Starting with some custom SSD covers and vinyl designs.

 

Here is a cover for the Samsung SM951 SSD

 

 

Very simple and effective

 

 

And also for the Intel 535 SSD, just need to round the corners to match it

 

 

 

 

 

Now to add vinyl

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also changing the motherboard heatsink to be more Krait looking

 

 

 

 

Now to get the RAM sticks painted white!

 

Thanks for checking it out and stay tuned for more!

 

Cheers,

I would kill for vinyl like that. Well, more specifically something along these lines, but the same concept of covering the branding.

Those labels are so badass!

Thank a lot guys! I like to use vinyl in all my builds

Hi guys,

 

Got quite a bit done on the build in the last few days and getting ready to finish it by next week I hope!

 

The memory is now plasti dipped white, it's a bit rough but it's plasti dip so it's all good.

 

 

Just taped and sprayed

 

 

Also here is the CPU block from Thermaltake made by Swiftech so it's pretty much the same deal and with the swap-able inserts.

 

 

 

I made sure to customise it of course

 

 

 and it lights up really nice and bright

 

 

Also made a custom backplate for the GPU

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for checking it out and stay tuned for more!

 

Cheers,

Hey guys!

 

Made a small cover for the motherboard rear I/O and added some vinyl to it. Also vinyl on the G.Skill memory as well as the backplate for the graphics cards is completed now and looking awesome I must say!

 

Check it out and let me know that you guys think?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for checking it out!

So much vinyl. So many logos. But at least they all fit into a two tone colour scheme, which is nice.

[nskceaj]

Realy liking it, good Job.

Cheers! Also no many more logos if everything would have been stock. Maybe just the PRO MOD bit

Thanks mate

Hey guys!

 

Here is the case back from powder coating. I'm not perfectly happy with the results as it did have some reactions in some spots however that is at the bottom which will be covered by the PSU and shroud.

 

Check it out as I start to install the components inside!

 

 

Tubing is also done, just missing some fittings for now to be able to plug everything is to show you. Had to swap them around to do the bends

 

 

The back window came out pretty nice

 

 

Reservoir mounts on the radiator

 

 

 

And Krait vinyl on the fans

 

 

Thanks for checking it out and stay tuned for more!

 

Cheers,

 

Alex

 

[Heesleemer]

wow

[ciobanulx]

wow

 

Thanks a lot!

Hey guys!

 

Back with another update as the build is getting closer to completion!

 

The shroud is now installed and of course you can see more vinyl work being done!

 

Some snake skin going over the shroud that I thought would look really cool. It didn't come out perfect due to my transfer paper not being very good at the time but I'm pretty happy with it.

 

Underneath the shroud at the back there will be an LED strip so this will light up between the vinyl quite nicely.

 

I've also done the front panel vinyl but this again due to the transfer paper finishing and I believe that it wasn't really that good towards the end, I messed up towards the bottom where the MSI logo is and this had to be pulled off to be redone but in the end ran out of transfer paper and vinyl so ordered some more to do the rest!

 

Check out the results guys!

 

 

 

I've also re adjusted the tube here and instead of redoing it completely I've decided a little curve like that makes it match more in line with the snake theme of the build.

 

 

 

 

 

You can imagine that once the front panel is completed it will look so much better once on and lit up. It should light the snake head really nicely!

 

Thanks for checking it out guys and stay tuned for more!

 

Cheers,

 

Alex

Thanks a lot mate!

^^Haha, I was thinking the same thing!

 

Haha well the 250D I use it from time to time as either a spare PC or an HTPC. Will most likely be my main HTPC in the new house once I move shorty The Green Molecule is just the case that you see there. I've had to take that build apart recently and made some changes to the case. I have some exciting news to share about that build shortly in the new year, you will have to check the build log for it once I make an update

 

This just got helluva lot more interesting!

Also I need to stick the window acrylic on the side panel
