Project Godzilla - 900D Long Term Build

[370GT]

Please tell me you plan on putting water cooling loop in this case?

 

 

You have seen the radiators and all the W/C bits, right? ;)

Or maybe I'm missing something? Wouldn't be the first time... :D

 

 

Yeah sorry did not see that my bad, Can't wait to see the outcome as I am planing to build in the same case too :)

 

 

Did you skip every picture of the Water Blocks or what?

 

 

Watercooling? What's that? lol

Good point on the fan controller.  I'm in Vancouver too!  I look forward to your build and especially the pics.  Put lots of pics up!!

For anyone looking for some more pr0n pics of the 900d

My favourite of the night

 

This one was a bit hard to capture. I think I might have the custom back plates light up with these lights. Godzilla's eye could be one of these LEDs

 

Video card water block is here!

Thanks for the comments so far!

love the Macro pics!!

[Pithan]

very nice macro photographs, what lens are you using for this?

[Shyxlol]

May I ask what program you used to make those models/renders? You'd get an extra like if you know a way to import something like a graphics card/mobo (either source or any other way but a 3D scanner - I only have a 3Ds for that :O)

Back to topic: I still don't really get your backplate idea but I can't wait to see it finished. Is there a local shop or something where you can use a 3D-printer or do actually own one?

Stock kit lens on a original Canon Digital Rebel. It's a piece of garbage lens. 18-55

I am using google sketchup for the 3d stuff, and there is a lot of premade video cards and mobos to download from the internet (http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/ is one site for instance). There are a couple 3d printing shops in vancouver, but they charge waaay too much. Thankfully I have a couple connections that have 3d printers that I can borrow from time to time. Otherwise I will be ordering from Europe, as they seem to have some of the cheapest rates.
