Can you see them now? And thank you

Hey again guys, Set off to build a pc for a friend was originally going to be done in a Corsair 750D airflow. Cougar got in touch and asked if we would like to have a go with their case, Why not! Client is a huge F1 racing fan and Dylan and I both thought that the Conquer case looks like an engine. The winning Mercedes W08 car was the obvious choice a simple design, silver that the top fading to black with electric blue swirls and stripes. Got a bunch of stuff to throw in it which is a bit better parts than we usually put in our budget builds. Going with PETG as will work well with the open case and engine feel. Case itself was easy to put together and very light weight, once you get the glass on though it toughens out and becomes a much more solid animal. The glass stabilizes the whole of one side of the case prior to it going on it can feel a little flimsy but once on its very reassuring. Major component I forgot to add was the GPU. Asus Rog Strix 1080ti should give enough punch. Of course we will be removing the heatsink and fans and adding a water block. The fans that come boxed with the Conquer are decent 120's but we have removed these in order to install 5 new fans to sit with the 360 (top) and 240 (front). Liquid colour is still up for debate, however we are leaning towards liquid.cool's sky blue which will match in well with the striking blue lines on the panels.

Some more pictures of the Bladerunner 2049 Casemod. Still some more to come after a little edit! Massive thanks to CORSAIR ,Barrowint Liquid.cool For the fun toys to make the build.Also in use if you can spot it is an Alphacool English Radiator an XSPC block and a EK Water Blocks rather heavily modded GPU plate (the rusting on all these products is of course fake;)The build was inspired by my love for all things Bladerunner, 70% of the build was done by my son with the brute force jobs done by myself. He really enjoyed the ease of soft tubing this time as previously only done hard loops. We did set off with hard tubing in mind for this build but once the custom bables were in it just looked so much better with the natural loop of the soft tubing. More updates on our facebook group https://www.facebook.com/dmodzuk/Video to follow.

Some more quick phone pics before we get the DSLR on the case tomorrow.

Leak test and system check before last details and some dye to the loop. Still quite a bit of rusting effects to add to the raining "too new" looking sections.

Testing the LCD backplate for the GPU waterblock one last time before she goes in. Cool little toy, added some risers to keep the screen away from the backplate, there is a fan which will be blowing air in across that gap so should not have any issues with heat affecting the screen.

Adding some Corsair toys to the build today at last, not use the lighting node pro before so keen to see what the link software is like.

Armour added still a lot more rusting and degrading to do but heading there at last, son is free tomorrow for the afternoon after football so hoping to get the soft tubes added and a test fill.

Inspired by the book Dune? (say "yes it is")

Thank you

Had some time between pumpkins and kids football this weekend to get some modding done. I set off doing the last of the cables 24 pin.. saving the most tedious for last! Dylan got to work rusting up the case, he did two shades of rusting to give it a weathered look. Now its dry I think it perhaps needs some chipping and some more shadow with some washed out black. He loved the rusting up watching him I think you could spend literally hours lost doing that.

Felt all wrong demolishing the corsair badge on a sponsored build! All masked up for some paint, then some more weathering.

A test fit of the PCIE cable just to check lengths, finishing the motherboard armour today and we are nearly ready to add water.
