Yeah the vinyl for the ram looks awesome!

 

 

The entire build looks sick

 

 

Wont argue that!

 

 

Gotta love it when the Aussies are making the best builds.

 

 

It's because we've always had to re-engineer things for ourselves. It's in our blood :)

 

 

Thanks a lot for the kind words guys :)

Hey guys,

 

Another quick update. The GPU is good to go and I also cut up these fan frames that will go around all the fans in the build to give them more colour.

 

You can see on the GPU the pink and purple caps have been covered with chrome vinyl.

This is the design I went for with the frames to just cover the edges of the fans.

Just need to get painted and filed down a little bit more, will be same silver colour as the side and front panel.

Hey guys,

 

Sorry for the lack of updates on the build. I have been very busy moving houses over the last few weeks.

 

All done now but no internet at home yet, so posting update from work. Should have a lot more room and time to work on builds from now on and will hopefully wrap this build log up soon but I'm still waiting on custom cables to arrive.

 

Here are the finished grills/covers I made for the fans.

Stay tuned for more.

Hey guys,

 

More work in progress! Found a nice spot for The Mod Zoo monkey badge and it looks pretty nice in there.

 

Just a few things to fix up and start working on some cable management for the fans and LEDs. Once the sleeved cables arrive and I can get everything in and start tubing up finally!

The two mounting holes for the 80mm fan grill don't really match unfortunately so will need to fix that :)

And here's a better look at the finished front panel.

Fuck you too.

 

Any way, I mostly like it. I don't like the rad stripes I think they mimic your Fallout build. There's a lot to like though :)

Hey guys,

 

I have some more fittings to show, this time some extensions. Thanks a lot to Hugh from mydiy.com.au for helping out with these Barrow fittings. You can check out his eBay store HERE with some good prices on fittings.

Not sure if I will use all of them yet but they will definitely come in handy for all the small tight corners in this build. I also need some spots to be really strong so just tubing won't do. Will make sure to show once ready.

 

Thanks for checking it out.

 

Cheers,

 

Alex

Hey guys!

 

Here are the awesome cables from Icemodz! Thanks a lot to Mundi for making and sending me this kit. It's made from nice flexible paracord sleeve and should fit nicely in the system. Make sure to check out the icemodz.com website for all your custom cable and LED needs.

Those Barrow fittings look good, they feel good? description says 'bitspower quality' do you agree?

 

They look exactly like BP and in terms of quality I have to say it's pretty close. A bit rough around the threads but should be good :)

Hey guys,

 

Here's another update on this build! Most of the fittings and cables are now in and it's ready for tubing up! Just wanted to give you guys a quick look inside before tubing up.

That chrome colored fittings is the only straight rotary fittings that I had. Once the front radiator is in that fittings is not seen.

You can also see the LED strips are in, these are UV LEDs from Icemodz.

Not sure if you notice but I bent a piece of acrylic around the 80mm fans and also around the 140mm fan, thought it cleans things up a bit.
