Your making your own Chain Mail! your as messed up as I am. I have total respect for anyone that's willing to go that far to craft what you need. Nothing can stop you with an attitude like that. The word Craftsman comes to mind! B)

Thanks man. For all interested just know that I have not abandoned this project. Just I haven't quite had enough time to finish the last few parts of the case just yet. What with a brief vacation and working 40 plus hours a week my life has been a mess. I am almost ready for an update however so stay tuned.

Hey Guys this is Arcticfo from the forums.  I thought I would put out a video update blog since ive been gone for a couple months.  Sorry for bumping my own thread hopefully I didn’t violate any rules.  But anyway Life has been crazy for me since I went back to College this fall and I just haven’t had the time to work on the computer like I would have liked.  The Chainmail is done and I will be mounting it here in the next couple of days so stay tuned!  I also have some exciting news, I have some sexy parts to show you and a few more sexy parts on their way to me as we speak.  I just ordered an I7-4770k that should be here on Christmas Eve so expect a late night Christmas Eve update.  I also have the MSI z87 Gd65 gaming motherboard on its way as well so I should be able to either have a build video or something very close depending on the progress of the case.  As for the case I have a slight problem whilst I was away my adorable cat managed to get ahold of one of the cables namely the power switches so that’s going to be fun to replace.  I might just buy a matte black edition of the case and steal some of its parts for the build regardless tell me what you think.  On hand though I have the very sexy and beautiful evga 770 4 GB edition it is probably the most beautiful card I have ever seen, but I digress.  I picked this card up a few months back and have been running it in my current rig in place of my 560ti.  I decided I would do a quasi-unboxing/ glam shot for you showing off its utter brilliance.  Unfortunately I won’t have enough money to completely finish the rig over the break especially if I have to end up buying the case again which I most likely will be.  Therefore I have the backup power supply pulled from my current rig.  It’s nothing special and it most definitely isn’t sleeved but it will have to make due until I can afford the seasonic platinum that I’m planning on buying and Sleeving.  For hard drives I have a Samsung 840 pro 128gb and a Seagate barracuda 500gb 7200 rpm drive I salvaged from my previous rig.  The Barracuda will eventually be replaced with a larger capacity drive.  Water cooling it will have to wait until the summer when I can have the time and the funds to put together the custom loop.  Any way Merry Christmas and this is Arcticfo Signing out.

Alright guys Merry Christmas!  So the Processor and the Motherboard came in the mail I have a few picks for all of you guys.  Unfortunately the chain mail and the rest of the case are still in the shop.  The motherboard looks fantastic though.  Don't worry the stock cooler will come off in a couple of weeks.
