Wow, I guess I started a trend if 5 people are using the pic. I've had the pic since October/November -ish.

Can't wait for final pics, really like the idea of using leather :)

Some white LED's would be nice as well.

You sir are awsome!

Thank you mate! Just trying my best to make some original mods.

 

Wow, this is such an amazing build! I really didn't like the look of the Air 240, but your renders and build so far look amazing! Really great work mate!

Such kind words, thank you :):)

Update No.12

Further progress on final touches.

 

 

 

 

 

Why G'day folks! ;)

 

Just another quick update to show you some sponsored Corsair Dominator White 1866mhz 16GB RAM, and some custom metal panels on the ASUS Strix GTX970! Enjoy ;)

 

 

 

Plastidipped Corsair Platinum RAM, which had a final coat of normal white paint to match the rest of the repainted chassis:

And the custom metal plates, plus an engraved badge which says Redefined. The badge has been further engraved and now sports a deeper and more detailed logo. More images of this coming soon :D

Now silly me forgot to take my camera to work today, so I couldn't document anything that I had done. I promise to take the camera tomorrow, and get some shots of the current progress before I continue. I plan on having the PC complete before this weekend ;)

 

Thanks for reading, and hope to see you all in the next update. Please feel free to let me know what you think!!

 

Kind regards,

Justin "MetallicAcid" Ohlsen

@MetallicAcid What case fans did you use?

Remember a wise man once said, "You'll most likely hear/see more bad reviews from products than good, because if they get a good product, they won't bother to write a review, and if they got a bad product, they'll complain about the product" ~ SoftenButterCream

Update No.13

My lucky number, and final update!


 

 

 

Hello my friends!

 

In this update, I am proud to present to you the posting of the Redefine project, and the final photoshoot of this beastly machine. I am very happy and sad to see this project complete as I have had a blast working with this chassis, all the products and various materials. I cannot say that everything went problem free though as I had some driver issues and software problems to deal with which took 3 days of my life, wasted on trying to get this system up and running. 

 

I am happy to report that everything is now working perfectly, and I have installed Windows 10 Preview and played a few rounds of Battlefield Hardline.! :) BTW if anyone wants to have a match on BF4 or BFH please add me at metallicacid_01

 

But before I get on with the image onslaught, I would like to take this moment to thank my sponsors who have giving their time and products to make this project come to life. Without your support, I would not be able to create these projects that I love to create! Thank you to:

 

Inet

Corsair

ASUS

Ultimate Personal Computer

Dremel

 

 

 

So firstly I want to show you some awesome custom engraving made by the owner of this project, Jens. He is magical :)

White painted Corsair Dominator Platinum RAM installed:

Redefined H100i hotwired to another PSU as I didn't have a second SATA power cable handy.. And the machine posting:

I really hope that you all have enjoyed this projects' build log, and the finished resulting PC. It has been a pleasure working on the chassis, and having all of you joining me once again in creating another custom project!

 

For those of you wanting to know what is next, I have a few projects in the works, and hope to start with a personal HTPC project right away. Once I have some more confirmed information, I will set up a build log and inform you all where you can find me ;)

 

That is it for now, and thank you for following. I hope to see you again in the next project!!

 

Kind regards,

Justin "MetallicAcid" Ohlsen

This is gorgeous. Next level modding at its finest. Hope to see more from you.

Is that a computer or a jet engine? Why not both?

Very nice and clean, but for some reason it's not satisfying... I think it's that it's not water cooled? Yea, that's what it is. I love the way it's very very clean and gorgeous.

Cables and false motherboard tray are amazing, To be honest i'm more impressed with the PSU side than the motherboard/component side.

 

I think were this one just falls short (for me, totally my opinion) if you're after this feedback is where the CPU block has been painted and its all white, it looks a bit bland, same with the white on the dominators and the MA plate on the PSU side. If those could be coloured to be broken up it would really enhance this.

 

In saying that you have texture wrapped this PC in a way rarely done before and it is absolutely amazing. You always have innovative idea's and lets face it...

 

...bring on the S-Frame, because that render has destroyed my mind...
