Now the question is how ,much did that cost 0-0

 

What are you 5 years old ? Its a work of art ! Price is irrelevant. And the parts list is there so just look it up on pcpartpicker for your local currency and local stores.

It looks like it will be an interesting build.

 

Just a tip:

If you plan on making movies, please dont strech things out. More then 3-4 sec on an almost static image is overkill.

It will make your videos a lot more pleasent to watch and it will make more people watch the entire video.

I speak my mind, sorry if thats a problem.

No it isn't, there was nothing wrong with the video from what I can see, it gave me enough time to inspect everything in view without having to rewind and pause like every tech video I normally watch directed by someone with ADHD...

If it had been zoom, voice over or something like that on them, I could have agreed with you.

But when the only thing that moves in the images is water, fans and auto focus, 7+ sec is way to long.

At least thats what my experience as a video editor says.

I speak my mind, sorry if thats a problem.

The NCASE M1 has to be my favorite mITX case, what a beautiful case this is! And the build compliments it absolutely perfectly! Congrats on this gorgeous machine, @koehler! :)

It looks fantastic, and that Res is massive, any reason why you used it? Or is it a I used it because I could deal?

During the time of the build, this is the only pump/res combo that I have so I give it a shot... Cheers!

Awesome, I was just looking at your other thread today actually! Could you give more detail about cutting the window? Pics of the inside of the panel, what bits, the process, cutting the window piece, mounting method?

How has the Aurora 2 held up so far? (if you even check this) I'd like to use it in my build but I've read about it changing colours and seperating over time.

 

That's true... I will be changing to pastel coolant instead... Thanks!

 

that is so sick man! :)

 

Thanks man!
