You're a pimp

What can I say to that, thanks... Lol I'm really happy with how it's come together after all the attention to detail I've put in. The video doesn't do it justice, but you get to see the level of detail I go through

This is extremely awesome man, I love the infinite detail you're going into with every part and mod. The painting of the I/0 shield is great and has definitely given me some inspiration for my next build

Thank you for the nice comments

I'm really happy with how it's turning out, I may even be able to finish the acrylic tubing and finishing touches before the custom cables within a month! The end is near I can taste it!! Lol who am I kidding, for modders the project is never done ;)

Some people hated the gold more than anything else, but you took it and ran with it

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

Awesome build Darwing, I have a gold build also but made the mistake of not using Vanilla Sands (yet). Kinda in the process of redoing it but I just love the whole black/gold theme.

 

You've done an excellent job, I'd certainly vote you up :D

This build is amazing i love it!!!!

 

Thank you so much It honestly took over a year, but I didnt skimp on any detail, each component selected and every millimeter was accounted for in this build. The initial ability to put 2 x 420 Rads in the 750D was my goal, but also to make something I've never seen before :) Thank you I hope to add some more photos and the final video shortly :)

Ugh, took so long and so much doubt but I did it :) :)

I was given the option of having the paracord gold sponsored to me, and decided that it wasnt what I wanted, so I ordered the last of the MDPC vanilla sands from Germany to California to get custom Sleeved by Lee Harrington from PCJUNKIEMODS. He is the one who did the custom sleeving for me, he even sponsored the black sleeving and cable combs because he liked my build so much. It was great working with him!!!

 

Its an honor to have people enjoy my build as much as I do, I can't even use half of its power but I just stare at it and enjoy its beauty ;)

 

More high res pics coming (when it's sunny in Canada!!) and Ill post my final video :)

 

thanks everyone for staying tuned!!
