What is Project : Air ?


 
 
 

It's gonna be a tj08-e build.


 
 
 

I rarely see any tj08-e worklog. Big fan of MetallicAcid's tj-08.


 
 
 

Mine is going to be simple and I'm gonna pay more attention on small details.


 
 
 

I'm going to use black and red theme believe it or not.


 
 
 
 

What is the inspiration ?


 
 
 

Never owned a ROG Board, so why not?


 
 
 

I'm gonna use black as my main color.


 
 
 

With a few red highlights like my fan's led and board's led.


 
 
 
 

Why ?


 
 
 

I'm moving to England to study.


 
 
 

I need a fully working hardcore pc.


 
 
 

I mean I love my Package build but it's in Malaysia.


 
 
 

Since I have a titan just collecting dust so why not create a air-cooling build.


 
 
 

So since I'm travelling, I picked a small form factor again.


 
 
 

I normally hate small form factor cases but I hope I can do it justice.


 
 
 
 

What to expect ?


 
 
 

Things to expect in this build is that this build is going to be around 1 to 2 months.


 
 
 

I have most of parts here.


 
 
 

You will expect disaster, a little bit modding.


 
 
 

Some types of rant.


 
 
 

You will expecting a very clean build.


 
 
 

Meaning no airbrush or any airbrushing details.


 
 
 

Only spraypaint will come close to this.


 
 
 

A very special window I have planned.


 
 
 

Aircooling

Motherboard first. I love the gene because of the amount of power it packs in such a small form factor.


Plus I love the supremefx led so I have to have it.


So much delay but it's finally here.


I also love the accessories especially the doorknob message thingy.


Enjoy the pictures.

What is Project : Package ?

 
 

It's gonna be a tj08-e build.

At first I got scared you are getting rid of your "Package" and replacing it, but then I read more. Can't wait for progress! :D

Lovely! :) Well did you ever hear of Slovakia? I would much rather live in Malaysia than in a country that most of the people think is in Africa...

The aircooler I chose is the silverarrow (non-extreme).
I love the heatsink design and to anyone who wants to know, it didn't block the ram dimms in pull.
I replaced the stock fan with enermax red led fan.
And picture of my corsair platinum 1866ghz (there will be mod on this).
Enjoy the pictures.

Ok, time to do some modding / designing.
First picture would be the original ram with the sticker taken off.
I then took off the top heatsink, it's easy to remove with a small allen key.
After that, I took the heatsink and painted it black.
After that, I took some scotchbrite 3m pad to sand it to give it a paint tearing like look.
It looks what I wanted. So I put it back and install it back.
Enjoy the pictures.
