just make sure to use a GPU with a back plate. the old school nakid PCB video cards will tear you several new ones... or at least go fan side up.

I should start a petition to call this a Fanity Mirror.

I’ve got trim pieces to sort out, but it runs. And the required cinnibench run.

I gotta say, that is turning into a pretty stylish beard.  

iffy memory controller, correct me if im wrong but this gen still had memory controller on mobo right?

you can clean the nasty areas with viniger.  wont hurt copper.

And the side grille. 

Hard tubes fit.  Next up is getting the replacement motherboard with a clean block installed. Then filling and leak testing. Also some cable management.

Using fan splitters to get all 8 fans turning now. Decided to wash my rad out and pump. And now I’ve got the bottom part of the case all tubed up. 

yep. mosfet controlling 2 fan ports was dead.  slipped right off its mounting. soldered it back on, but not getting enough juice to turn a fan.  oh well, ordered another one and will use fan splitters to get all 8 spinning for now. I probably killed it.  turns out one of my fans was shorting out thru the heatshrink.  must have left a jaggy.

Rgbw test semi-successful. A couple colours missing on a couple strands. These build your own kits have really really finicky connectors. Went thru the whole damn roll to get this good. Cheap no-name controller.

We are getting close. Another coat inside the cabinet and another couple on the trim bits here and there. I may be able to start mounting hardware by tomorrow night.
