    Really awesome that you can have it so close to the wall.

    Love the keyboard. Blacked out and blocky
  3. ggPGDgg
    It works on and off. But at the moment, it doesn't load anything at all. )=.

    Looks like it would feel a lot more ergonomic than my m65 I'm currently using.

    Thanks! Hmm, I'll start with the backplate first, then if I like it, I'll go onto the shroud as well (=. I do have a front intake, but its mostly covered now from the drive bay cover. I'm going to monitor my temps while gaming and see how bad it is. If it get's pretty bad, then I'll just perforate the drive cover and put some mesh on it =p.

    LOL, Unfortunately, you couldn't be more correct haha.

    Haha, oh boy. I'll be sure to do a bit of painting for sure. Might do that aluminium side panel for the drive cages in plasti dip too while I'm at it I guess lol. Well hopefully the wind dies down tomorrow so I could actually paint. The wind is just insane today. No way I'll be able to paint

    I've come across that mod before. Looks pretty good, and I've got some tubing like that around. I may try the plasti dip solution out though. I found the "plastidip glossifier" or something like that. Maybe it will make it look a bit better. If not, I could just peel it off, and try something else lol.
  13. ggPGDgg
    Hmm yeah you're right. Do you think if I just kept the tubes stationary, they'd be fine? The only reason I'm hesitant to use plastidip is because I've seen it used before and it looks a bit grainy rather than a smooth gloss finish. I'll check out amazon for sure. Yeah man, its a bummer a lot of the time for sure.

    Ahh, I'll look into the plastidip for the tubes. I got some quick color paint just to see how it would act (it was really cheap lol). I tested it out on some vinyl tubing, and it seems to stretch instead of crack after two or 3 coats. It also peels right off like plastidip if you make mistakes. Glad to hear I don't need anything special for the motherboard heatsinks. I'll see if I could find some white vinyl wrap at homdepot or something, if not, I'll go with the paint option. Thanks for the adivce!

    Hey guys! So today I started up a little paint mod for my H100i. I've taped everything that's not getting painted with painters tape already. Normally I wouldn't mind the black tubing, but when I started my build, I was going for a black and white build. It turned out great, except the core of the computer turned out more black than anything, so I think this will help things pop out a bit more. I've seen other peoples white tube mods, and they look sick, so I'm not too worried about how mine will turn out. There are also some red stripes on my mobo heat sinks that I want to paint but I have yet to find and white engine paint (from what I've researched, that's what I'll need to let heat pass though the heat sink). I'm wondering if it will hinder the heat expulsion much since its only a couple stripes that I want to paint, and the majority of the heat sink will still be uncovered. I also cut out a piece of aluminium to cover up the drive cages on the right. I think this will turn out pretty nice as well. ---- -- EDIT** So I got around to painting everything that I wanted and this is how it turned out. I think it went okay personally. I think the heatsinks could be touched up a bit, but for now, I think its okay. Also I need to find a better way to mount the drive bay cover, since right now its ghetto taped to the side there...lol. I think you can see the tape in the back corner beside the motherboard grommet. I want to do my gpu backplate, but I'm scared that it may be too much. What do you guys think? ------- -----
