Gallifreyan, Its bigger on the inside. Pics of Finished Airbrushed Case on pg 3

I'm not a crazy who fan, but I do enjoy it. Subbed.

We both posted at same time so hush...

 

I am on cold meds and the shift key was so far away

Just messin' with you mate, chillax!

[Geekazoid]

Dayem! You've got 45 members, including myself, following this thread of yours. Now, if that doesn't get Linus' attention I don't know what will.

[Trik'Stari]

the amount of effort that people put into their computers these days is crazy, nice job with the air brushing

Just you wait until the day I have a decent, well paying job.

 

Glass tubing custom water loop, hand blown, in a custom case. Not a small form factor or anything, absolute balls out insanely beautiful loop. Custom made UV reactive plexiglass motherboard tray, EVERYTHING (SSD's and HDD's) water cooled.

 

 

I am going to go absolutely insane on a PC when I get the money. I am gonna shoot for like.... a $20k build

 

MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

 

Edit: Did I mention that the primary loop would be cooled by a secondary loop?!

Well I got him to mention this project on #mod24 during them answering tweets and could have sworn I heard Luke say "It is also on the forums" so I think they know lol thats what I keep telling myself

From this day I declare that this build will rule all other builds and be crowned.....*drumroll*.....'BUILD OF THE WEEK'! B)

Just you wait until I get my hands on $20k, and contact a scientific glass blower with the ability to hand blow quartz glass tubing.

[flibberdipper]

OH WOW THIS IS GREAT! How have I missed it?

I don't know, but you've missed out.

And when that happens I shall declare that build of yours.....*drumroll*.....'Build Of The Year'. B)

I know how, you were too busy sneaking into Linus' house attempting to steal that Puget Systems watercooling rig he has. :lol:

Oh no, I am shooting for build of the decade with my plans.

 

Imagine a case similar to the caselabs magnum STH10, with all the add ons for rads and what not, but with a more "industrial" style theme, minimum of eight 480mm rads, and a single 140 (rear exhaust, or maybe read 280mm rear). All glass 100% quartz glass tubing on the loop, custom water blocks, as many SSD's as I can cram into it, the x99 equivalent for when I build it, etc.

 

I want people to look at it and go "I want to ask why....but I can't look away...."

 

the theme will be "mad scientist"

[Syraz]

Ha thanks!! donno how you missed it.  Even though work kicking my arse these days trying to get more and more done would love to get it done by next month PDXLan

Awe! That is a FREAKING AWESOME case! That is gonna be super cool if you manage to do it. I'll certainly follow that build log. B)

Sssshhhhh.....

If I am lucky, I'll be building it in like, 5 years. Currently I can't decide on a color scheme. I was thinking purple and orange. Black case, purple background lighting, and orange coolant and accents.

 

Although purple and "radioactive waste" green would be equally sexy.

[Geekazoid]

Sssshhhhh.....

Oh! Did I just say that? My bad! LOL

Cool beans! Can't wait. Although I'm not sure it'll cost you $20K for all that, but I could be wrong. Unless you're gonna make sure that you spend $20K on it for bragging rights.

Well, custom stainless steel case, cut with either waterjet or laserjet, with a custom UV reactive motherboard tray (think of those translucent lego's that light up under black light), combined with the cost of having a scientific grade glassblower (which I assume will be most of the cost) hand make the cooling loop (as well as install it), I should easily meet that price. I'm planning to use all SSD's to have more storage than I would likely ever need. all water cooled just because swag

My favorite video of quartz glass "blowing", which has to be done with hydrogen gas specifically because of the temp's needed for it.

That second machine, I love engineers sometimes.

[Geekazoid]

Ah, yeah, I've seen those. It'd be cool if you manage do it. B)

Seen a glass tubing water cooling loop? WHERE?!

 

I've looked for them online, but haven't seen any. I've asked if it has been done before one some glass blowing forums, and people say it has been done, but I can find no evidence of it. The only issue I foresee is hardware failure, and the delicate attempt to remove said hardware. I tried doing some glass blowing myself a while back, when I had a job, and it just did not work out because I didn't have the right kind of torch for it, and it is about a thousand times more difficult than it looks on youtube.

[Geekazoid]

Well, I meant that I've seen glass blowing in general.

Updated main post with what I have purchased, should be getting parts in tomorrow

[Valaris]

I'm amazed the screwdriver hasn't died on you. I have that thing and the metal used for the bits is so weak, when I tried to screw in my SSD's in to the bracket, the metal just got stripped away (On the bit! not even the screw) until I had just a roundish screwdriver tip.
