The OS skin looks awful

So you don't even know what language you are working in nor have you even posted any code...
 
Good start.

My s6 already has a shit tastic battery life, I'm not too worried.

Of course we did have to do some chopping to make it all feel pretty smooth, but Linus and Brandon shot this whole thing in the span of a few hours... Grandpa John is pretty spry, curious, and engaged for a guy his age!!
 
Such a cool video imo.

Id wait till titans come down a bit and snag one if u can. If you have like 2x 980ti's or 2x titans id probably wait till the 1180ti. Thats my opinion anyway, there really isnt much of a gain if you have already bought 2 mad ass gpus.

Ah nice. I can't wait to see what this next idea will be. 
 
I can imagine that having access to all those tools would of been heaven. Half the reason i don't mod is because I simply don't have power tools so I can't do much haha. Eitherway, I'm really impressed with your build and can't wait to see more.

Hehe...saw this build being started almost a year ago, thought I followed it but it seems during the forum layout being updated or something it unfollowed...  
Very nice build, I wonder how much you got murdered by Australian prices  

Fair enough  well good luck on your quest for a second table (when you do end up doing another one ) 

Honestly, I would hold onto the 980ti for now, give the market a couple months to maybe rebound a little bit from the huge influx of people selling their own cards. Plus the 1080Ti and 1080 Titan are probably just around the corner so you'll regret getting a 1080 in just a few months.

Fucks sake. The 980 Ti is the EXACT SAME in most games as a 1080 (look at TTL's review) and when you OC both the 1080 is 20%-30% ahead at most.

Coming Soon!

Those 4 empty slots on my Asus X99 deluxe was crying to be filled so lucky the G.Skill ram was a little bit discounted and decided to throw it in my order along with another item which ill put up soon. I looks really nice and its an extra 16gb that I didn't have before. Enjoy.

Looks incredible dude

I really enjoy the alternating color RAM, nice!

Its finally happened!! Since day 1 of this table I have wanted this monitor, 4k, Gsync. Every since it was announced at CES 2015 I have been wanting it. I have read so many things about the backlight bleed and the more quality control but I also heard they also have good warranty so I wasn't worried too much. After unboxing it I set it up straight away, and man, its something from another world. My unit has no noticeable backlight bleed, there is the smallest bit the size of your nail on the bottom right corner but you have to look at just the right angle. Using the monitor for around 3 days now I haven't noticed the bleed or any light spots anywhere so as far as im concerned they fixed the backlight bleed issues.
 
Here are my problems. Being on windows 7, scaling is a pain in the a**. I have my 1080p benq and the 4k one setup and I have to make windows 150% but that also leads to my 1080p monitor being 150%. After researching it a bit I have no choice but to go to windows 10 in hope that the dpi scaling is better and I heard you can also set scaling for each monitor separately. Scaling is the major downfall but I can live with it for now, photoshop and most applications are really small and I have tried to fix it but hasn't really helped, ill wait till win 10 to fix it all up. 
 
As for gaming... GSync confuses me a bit and im still wrapping my head around it. I have made vertical sync in nvidia settings as "Use the 3D Application settings" but for monitor technology GSync is on. I have been playing Shellshock tanks recently so I decided to see if it would work on 4k and it did. Having that game on ultra isnt demanding at all and I was getting 250+ fps. As for some proper games, aka Witcher 3, The Division, GTA 5, well there is a slight issue. 1. Im in test time for uni so I haven't had a chance to play any games and 2. The Division has the worst SLI support that once I get in game my computer shuts down and says there was a power surge. Now i have tried a 3rd party SLI profile patch, also changing the version number, basically everything and I cant get it to work. By accident SLI was off and everything was on max and I was getting 37-40ish fps and the game was running without crashing. Ill make a future post about fps and everything after I upgrade to win 10.
 
Enjoy the pics











 
 

So, the Founder's Edition is essentially pointless if you don't want a blower cooler?

Convince your parents:

COD turned to shit after Cod 4. Glad they are bringing it back. All this wall running and power sliding is crap.

So, not really related but kinda related.
 
As this is my main rig I had some leftover gear from my ambilight TV project I did, some may or may not be familiar with it. Anyways...
 
I've been seeing heaps of LED backlight work stations so I figured i'd repurpose the project onto my 34", so thats exactly what I did...
 
On the 58" Samsung I had 200 of these 12mm diffused individually controllable RGB LED's

 
So I laid it all out and attached it to teh back of my 34" ultrawide.

 
Still using the Teensy 2.0 micro controller.

 
Some primitive cuts let the frame bend around with the monitor backing.

 
And much to my surprise, 108 LEDs fit on the back of this thing!

 
It gets powered by its own 5v 10A PSU but im noticing some color shift so I think im getting voltage drop by the end of the string. I might have to add the 2nd PSU I have,
 
So I can set it to Res, Blue, Green, Purple, White, or whatever static color I want however thats not the real idea. Because they are individually controllable essentially I have screen capture software running that sends that data to the micro controller and then that data to the LED's for an 'active LED backlight' that changes with whats been shown on the monitor.
 
Here's a really bad example, the lights haven't been tuned at all, the wall isn't white, its in a corner instead of flat against a wall and the camera suck but, you get the idea right?
 

After 2 days of hard work Project: Ravage reached it's final form! As you will see in the up coming pictures I added some more vents to the side of the table for some air intake for the new rad. Pretty messy job and can't compare to the CNC ones that I made initially but they look alright. The Samsung 950 512gb has been installed and i'm currently working on installing everything on it. I decided to install win 10 on and and have disabled most of the windows 10 features. With the introduction of the extra rad, max cpu temps have dropped by close to 20C which is crazy. So far i'm loving the upgrade and the translucent EK UV blue is growing on me. Project: Ravage is finally done (table wise). Ill be working on my setup but i'm off to uni in 2 weeks so ill see how that goes. Without further adieu, here are the temps and images.

Back once again. I decided to do a mini mod on my EVGA sli bridge while I had my table open topping up my reservoirs. In short you undo some screws and get access to the led light panel. You remove some of the plastic over the top to hold it in place and boom the leds are exposed. From there you can see the clear EVGA piece of plastic and behind that is the LED defuser. In between these layers I added some blue sheets of cellophane and put it all back together. The results worked out really well as you can see by the pics below.
 
On a side note the PG27AQ 4k monitors I have been saying I want since the start of this build are finally in australia. In about 3 weeks retailers will be receiving them and Ill be one of the first to get one so look forward to that.

I somehow forgot about this......blame it on all manner of shit going on in my life right now.
 
But yeah. Baller as.

As you may know I will be using the TJ11 for this build but it needs some work. I have removed everything from the inside as I plan to some things custom made for the case. As well as scrapping everything I have also redone the power buttons. The original ones were fine but they had a blue led which wouldn't suit the build so I went down to Jaycar and picked up these two illuminated momentary switches. They have a red led ring around the button which will suit what I plan to do with the outside of the case. The hole from the stock switch was too small for the new switches so using a 19mm drill bit I was able to extend the hole just enough to fit in the new switches. The red ring switches look so much better than the stock ones.
