Sooooo I know i havent posted any updates here..... I will be honnest....I forgot to .... a lot of things happen... I got a raspberry pi model B 2. I have a battery and everything. I have it actually working. All it needs now is an enclosure. More info and photos will be available once school stops so that i will have more free time to work on it. The whole casing will be from aluminum BTW. 

Oh yeah. The F150 doesn't have much space between headrest and seat
 
On another note.
Stealth audi

 
So you can really sneak up on the person you just have to tailgate

NEVER!! YOU SHALL NOT KNOW MY SECRET IDENTITY..
 
 

may or may not actually be me...

Minesweeper, never beat it once.

Still looking for feedback on the FrozenQ M1 reservoir
 
Are you interested in using the FrozenQ M1 reservoir with Nova?
 
 
Did some hardware testing today.
 

Testing out the Noctua L9x65 heatsink.
 
5930K at stock clocks and ambient at 23.5°C it was idling at about 38°C with the NF-A9 PWM 92x25mm fan (this isn't the included one) running at ~900 RPM.
 
After 10 minutes of Prime96 Blend @ 10 threads it got up to about 90°C and the fan was running at 2040 RPM. CPU was throttling slight, dropping briefly from 3.6GHz down to 3.5GHz.
 
So I tried adding a 120mm on the side bracket blowing towards the heatsink and after 20 minutes of Prime it got to about 81°C.
 
Left to its own devices, the L9x65 isn't suited to cooling a socket 2011 CPU at heavy load, but with additional case cooling the temps are reasonable considering the small size.
 
 

Here's a 3.5" HDD installed. So in this configuration you could fit a 3.5" drive, a video card, PCIe SSD, and a sound card.
 
 

Here you can see the HDD mounting screws, can't really see in this pic but there are rubber grommets that the drive is sitting on.
 
 
Did some thermal tests.  The drive is a Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB 7200RPM. At ~25.5°C ambient the drive got up to 48°C with the drive idling but the GTX 980 running Valley after 25 minutes.
 
Then I ran CrystalDiskMark 4K tests on the HDD to work it out while still running Valley and after 30 minutes the drive got up to 53°C.
 
With both GPU and HDD idling the drive sits at 43°C.
 
So perhaps having the video card in the third slot isn't ideal for HDD temps but that's easily fixed by moving the GPU to the top slot.

The Linus way.

Welp, all good things have to come to an end I guess. After a night of playing GTA V with @Ryou-kun, my 260x had "enough". It went black, and that was it. I couldn't get my system to gracefully shut off, nor post after I forced it off.I reinstalled the 7770(which I never disconnected from the loop, it was hanging out the side of my computer lel) and my system was full of life again. Oh well, I have to go back to Microcenter anyways(gotta get that EVGA RAM while its on sale), but I'm not going to get another 260x(Only 1 open box left, I imagine it has the same problems as my card, hence why its an open box). The 750 ti is the closest card I can find, most of them are single slot(for the outputs) and most of them have the same heatsink pattern, so I'll probably end up with one of those. For now, rest in peace 260x, you won't be missed:

Aside from it killing itself, it handled GTA V very well. I was averaging 60 FPS with high-ultra settings(no AA of course).
 
Edit: SMH Microcenter

Quick announcement, folks: we have a new update on the KI blog! It's just a simple summary of some of the additional changes we've made to the design - I like to elaborate a bit on the "how" and "why" of certain things, so it's in these posts where I often have the opportunity to do that.
  I also threw in some neat testing Aiboh has done of Intel's new 750 SSD, when sandwiched between two GTX 980's in Nova 

ok one more teaser lol
 
I just had to share this 
 
after about of 20 minutes of buffing

Hi everyone,

Back with a quick update on the status of this project.  I got a call back from one of the printers I have been shopping this case around to, to try and get it printed.  The cheapest they could do it for was around $700.   While this is a major improvement in price than the 2-5K other places have been asking for, I feel that there is still a way to get the price down even further and improve the design as well.

After fiddling around with the model the past few days, I was able to come up with what you see below.  This design utilizes 8 of the same 3D printed pieces with an internal acrylic or aluminum structure.  This will allow me to utilize most of the acrylic I have already purchased and had gotten laser cut.  

This is still in the rough stages of the concept, i still want to figure out how to get the corners covered up so they are not as unsightly as well getting the rest of the panelling and internal structures worked out and finished.

Once the I have the final model finished, I will share the images of it and detail out how this new version improves upon the old.

More Soon!

You have 666 posts (illuminati confirmed)

Stop putting up shit posts, yes we know that it is a powerful rig but we don't need any more people coming on this forums showing off shit like this thinking that it's funny because it's not.

Green Carnage Update:
pretty closed to the end
 
I filled the loop with EK Pastel Green
im doing the Leak test right now,
installed 3 x Darkside white led strip on Case's fan controller
 
and why not some photos

Take a look here.

you stand corrected

Law abiding citizens (who this affects) don't shoot and kill other people. Please don't turn this into a nonsensical anti-gun debate. 

guys so i didnt  finish the build for the cooler master case mod contest will be reentering next yr . the thing is i dont have time with the project dont want to rush things out .   so i went vacation before the contest for 8days and that 8 days cost me a lot in modding then when finally at home i was sick . i have flu . so i decide to give up . but still i will still continue my project because i spend so much money already building it so now im still saving money for the build and i hope some people will maybe help me with the build soon ill finish this build but still i need funds  my life is hard yours maybe fine  .  so i need your support in my build if someone will help .  god i wish someone will give me a lazer cutter lol but anyways  the rig is fine by now i broke one of my acrylic -.- then i make another one  so pictures soon thanks 

Minor update:  The Titan Z's are out, and I'm waiting on Titan X's.  I'm going to take the SSD array off to a machine shop soon to get the aluminum cover plate made.  Client still hasn't decided on a reservoir.  I've done some minor wire cleanup, and I'm planning the loop around what parts we have done so I can get a list of bits needed to be ordered for final assembly.
 
 
I wont be bringing all 3 monitors to my house.  I just need one monitor to boot it, test it, configure things etc.  
 
 
Tesla model S I assume?  He ended up buying a Tesla and keeping the Caddy.  He got the P85D and it's amazing.  I've driven it for a few hours on one of our weekend excursions.  It's a thing of beauty, but I'm glad he kept the Caddy.  I love them both.
 
 
Ehhh I don't know if it'll be a straight up smash.  This rig is also essentially over 6 months old at this point too.  My medical issues really put a damper on the build.
