Update 1

Got the case from CEX. Advise : Just buy online and collect there. Best solution.

Here's the case, Corsair 800D. My first time buying Corsair.

I was suppose to get XSPC H2 because it is all screwed.

And I tend to hate Corsair because everyone I meet say that Corsair is good.

Here's some shots on the case overall. Pictures continue on the next post due to Lowyat's IMG limit per post.

WARNING : High-Resolution Picture.

Looks like a good plan man!

I would take some money out of that mobo and throw it into a nice mouse, but priorities are different for everyone ;P

[JakeGFX]

Update 2

I started taking apart the case.

The amount of rivets in this case is just ridiculous.

I took out the motherboard tray and the mid panel+hotswap bays and the bottom (plus hdd cage)

The war I went with the bottom HDD cage was like world war 3.

I can't take out the 5.25 bays because rivet is like countersunk.

And the damage done to the case while taking out rivets and my floor is unspeakable.

WARNING : High Resolution Picture

[JakeGFX]

Update 3

The bottom is removed and I can't seem to remove the rivet for the top

is in a way 'countersunk' so I don't have any drill. So I need to cut with the whole body.

Here's some quick shots and the amount of rivet/screws I took out

[JakeGFX]

Update 4

Not a massive update.

I started cutting my case :)

$333 Dollars is on the line!!

I think I did quite badly for a first timer.

And I broke my dremel. But that's for a later update.

I sort of broke the tip of my newly bought dremel.

Anyway. I also purchase m3 and m4 screws (+radiator screws)

Now I'll be looking for a 480 Radiator grill.

Is not easy to find a 480 radiator in Malaysia.

Quick question for you guys, does adding chain (real chain) the one which you lock doors with.

If I add it like twirling around the cables, will it short circuit my board or card.

Update 5

Well for me, this build is starting to take shape.

I place orders for radiator grill and a very special item (You need to wait) ( I broke part of it already -.- )

I got my cases fans. I enjoy my build now.

I was nervous when this build started to take effect.

Thank you for the few subs. I noticed.

I want to say thank you for believing in me.

words can't described how grateful I am.

Here's a quickshot of fans and my workspace (random shorts for those who doesn't understand.

[JakeGFX]

Update 6

It's not a really big update. This picture was from the night I bought the fan,

I wanted to test fit my 480 modded cutout. It worked properly

I already ordered a new reservoir and the 480 grill. More update will come.

I will assure you won't be disappointed.

Here's a few picture of the test fit and my awesome photography

[JakeGFX]

Update 7

Now some real progress. Got first of four radiator.

My 240mm Radiator for the bottom of the 800D.

I also got a new table for all my mod work.

I say it once and I will say it again.

I will not disappoint.

Plus I got new tubing.

My current tubing on my RV03 will be on a new project.

Stay tune. More to come.

[JakeGFX]

Update 8

Got some spare compression fittings for my extra rads. This is the most closest shot I can get. One of the pic which I took very closely can't focus and just end up blurry. Sorry for the small update.

Plus I ordered new mod tools. I'm gonna use it on this project and a new project. Many to come. Just wait please.

[JakeGFX]

Update 9

Now this is a real update.I got packages for my radiator and my package all the way from Florida.

The grill was the most pain staking thing to do. And here comes the virus, T-Virus that is. I still have package for cathodes and extra tubing because I think is not enough. Enjoy the beauty of the t-virus. I waited 3 weeks for this. And thanks to anyone who is still following my thread. The radiator with the grill really look good together IMO

[JakeGFX]

Update 9.5

I did some tubing and installed ALL my radiator.

I know that 4 radiator is overkill but hey, I do this just because I want it to be overkill.

More things like cathodes, more fittings and maybe a new pump is coming plus sleeved cables are coming (i'm lazy, ok?)

Thanks for the support of my project. Again, words can't describe how happy I am feeling knowing that someone is following my project.

[JakeGFX]

Update 10

My inverter and ccfl came. But I encounter more problems than I'm use to. When I got the 8 port inverter, I don't have 2 pin to power it and the 2 pin in the small inverter that can connected to the ccfl doesn't work. Then my ccfl's inverter got shortcircuit and it was smoking, and the resistor got fried and my capacitor got blacked so in plain english, I fried the inverter. A new small inverter is coming. I still don't know what to do with my 8 port inverter. Any suggestion how to power it? Plus, I got a image for the t virus powered on.

[JakeGFX]

Update 11

I broke my t virus cathode so t virus will look ugly now.

sorry guys, hope you will still read it.

Plus I broke one of acrylic holder for my t-virus.

Talk about my bad luck.

On to good news, I have extra tubing because it's not enough at first.

And I got my feser dye.

Really wanted to go mayhem but mayhem too expensive..

Feser is ok, I'm using it in my current build.

I don't fully trust brands I don't usually know that well.

[JakeGFX]

Update 12

I got some picture with just UV Cathode.

My advise, go for LED.

Cathode is a pain in the ass.

I fried on inverter and I keep getting shocked by another.

But I chose cathode because the light distribution looks better.

And oh snap, I got a second pump. Is not overkill unless you get 2nd pump.

I'm doing just for you guys.

Let's see what's this baby going to do.

One more piece is left for this build which is the ram.

Stay tune.

[JakeGFX]

Update X

Since I'm still waiting for my savings to increase.

Here's some pictures of random stuff of the rig

I assemble back the mechanism for the side door.

It was a pain in the ass I tell you.

Anything with a spring will be a douche to you.

[JakeGFX]

Here's a picture of the leaking EK

I can't get a refund because I damage the grill so yeah, DON'T CHOOSE EK radiator, you can pick their cpu and gpu wb but just don't go with their radiator.

[JakeGFX]

Update 13

It's a big big update. My motherboard has arrived.

It's a killer. Here's some picture to enjoy that pure intel POWAHHH!!

[JakeGFX]

Update 13.5

More pictures. (accessary mostly.)

BLUE SLI!!

And lastly, Intel, you suck at color coordination -.-

[JakeGFX]

Update 14

I'm in the airport, going back to Malaysia. In London now, So I'll post this small update. It's just accessories like fan connectors. My RAM update is tomorrow in like 13 hrs because that's how long my flight is.

[JakeGFX]

Update 15
