First off to see how the colors match and a small mod to the power button.

Spoiler

 

Okay but this power button though! That's sick

[Trentonxx]

was the vertical GPU for looks or performance? I have the same case and I notice how how the glass gets in the exaust of the GPU: I wonder if a vertical config might help move air away faster.

 

also how easy was to install the holder?

Purely for looks, Didnt see any temp or fan speed difference at all with the stock cooler. Im auming you are using a "taller gpu" that is wider than the pci bracket? If so you might run in to some issues if you got a big heatsink for the cpu and a vertical mount. So be sure to check that before buying. 

 

If you got a pair of pliers its easy as you have to cut off the small metal parts between the pci brackets and thats all you have to do.

For anybody that wants to do the same and is looking for the right colors. The codes are for the Pantone color palette.

 

Standard

Brown = PQ-483C   Noctua

Beige = PQ-2309C   Noctua

 

Redux

Light Grey = 427C   Noctua

Dark Grey = 431C   Noctua

 

Chromax

Red = 200C   Noctua

Blue = 19-4050 TPX   Noctua

Green = 18-6030 TPX   Noctua

Yellow = 108C   Noctua

[Velcade]

I love everything about this build.  Take you for posting it.

[ShadowChaser]

Looks pretty sweet! I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the less mainstream color choices - noctua and reeven get so much hate for their colors but I love them regardless

[burh4n]

@Raawmeat nice work, the effort you put into this definitely shows. 

Do you have a nice 70's style modern end table to paint Noctua brown to display your rig? If not, I think you should.

[Britjoe]

Mmmm Chocolaty

 

[Drama Lama]

A shame that higher end boards often only are coloured black and not brown like  some really low end MSI boards

If noctua and fractal design had a baby

[IRegisteredToBrag]

Holy s*** this is so statistically unlikely!. Around January I was planning my next build and had decided on a Noctua themed build after looking at some ones I found on reddit and google images and such. I already had all my parts and the theme and aesthetic chosen. Unfortunately the case I wanted ( Lian Li PC-011 Dynamic XL ) was sold out, as were nearly all cases. So I got the only thing available that would fit my giant NH-D15 Noctua cooler. And it happens to also be a Meshify C!. And believe it or not, I did almost the SAME color theme you did, except reversed!. I know this thread is old but I feel compelled by the similarity alone to share this!. After completing my build I was looking for tips for wiring, and a aftermarket GPU cooler, and I stumbled upon your thread here. And I will admit, I did steal your brilliant Noctua Logo power button idea!.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yours looks amazing, did you use the official Noctua colors from the Pantone color catalogue?. Noctua was nice enough to actually provide me with perfectly matching color codes. I hate that my GPU ruins the theme however, so my final step is going to be using a Artic Accelero Extreme IV and removing the stock fan/bracket off it and installing a few Noctua fans, as seen in this user's build from Reddit below.

Thanks, im glad i get to see the finnished product the other way around color wise.

 

Nah i just matched it with a brand of spray paint so it aint 100% match but not that far off. The brown is a little to much red in otherwise its all good.

Yeah I know Noctua is good with their support normally, this time i got the cold shoulder when wanting to show of the product to them tho  .

 

And looking at your gpu, maybe just try and remove the current fans with shroud and just slap some Noctua fans ontop of the original heatsink.

I love how you dealt the the nh-d15s heatsink with the chromax cover NA-HC4, I am thinking of doing the same or getting the NA-HC3 cover to get a two tone or simply painting on something on the HC4.

[Izineth]

I love it Noctua pls make it happen!  A Noctua color themed NR200 style ITX case would be amazing.

And a brown or beige (creme?) color version of the heatsink would be awesome

 

PC hardware always being black, white or silver is boring.

[Quinnell]

This actually makes Noctua colors look good!

[Trik'Stari]

Didn't think it was possible to actually make a fractal case look good, but you went and did it anyways. Well done. 

[Raawmeat]

A small update as i finally have gotten the new glass and mouse pad.

So now its the keyboard and controllers turn on being modded. 

[Raawmeat]

Finally gotten the pieces to finish the keyboard. Its getting closer and closer to being done soon.

No, the question should be why not?

Still needs a bit of polishing.

Nice

Did you always plan to give the whole setup the brown theme?
