Finished painting the radiators and the pump housing orange today!

Unfortunately I didn't paint the gpu backplates cause imo they just looked wierd Orange.

Enjoy :D

Looks good, just make sure you don't overdo the orange. If you do it'll look tacky as. ^_^

Yeah that was my main concern with the backplates.

That's pretty much all that I'm painting, the rest of the Orange is just the cables and coolant.

I can see Pavrum is the in thing now. I just saw Jay's tutorial on how to paint the radiator last week! Hopefully, Ur build will turn out nice.

Yeah I think it's cause Parvum differ themselves from the rest of the case market, I for one am sick of the standard

Steel chassis and I think Parvum is really unique in that respect.

Nice. It has one in Australia. Looks like I will have to get it from the international store.

 

Only water-cooling build for Pavrum? I am too scared to make a water-cooling system.

Honestly if you take your time and don't rush there's not much to go wrong. For instance an AIO like H100i could fail and leak and there goes your pc. at least with a custom loop you have some control over what you want to cool and how you want to do it.

That being said custom loops are not at all a good price/performance option. It's really only for looks/silence, the cons highly outweigh the pros it's a hobby really.

Motherboard painted black / blocks fitted. Also fitted the HDD waterblock (I know watercooled HDD's are pointless it's just for aesthetics).

Painted PSU pics posted tomorrow!

This is looking good, i agree on what you said about the cases, its just not good enough nowadays for a build project to buy a fully build factory manufactured type case, and in most of the time people have boring black. so good to see people like you with some difference and style.

whats all the specs of cpu, gpu etc  

got to love Asus components

very nice specs. i just finished a new build a few weeks ago and i can tell you the Asus strix 970 is baller, so quiet and nice performance, so if you can't wait for the next gen its a good card to get, especially in Sli.

have you ever thought of getting a hybrid SSHD for main storage, as it performs better than a normal HDD. 

love the m/board, good specs.

I'll be honest I have two 2.5inch 1tb SSHD's and I really can't notice any difference between the two, probs me just being a

Pillock lol.

As I only use the 3tb for movies and games it's no big deal really.

So I thought I'd post some pics of the inside of the psu while the housing is being painted incase anyone's interested.

Was a right pain to get off without breaking it! Corsair really don't make it easy to modify stuff.
