I was asked to share my Deepcool TRISTELLAR Gaming PC Case Mod here. I created this mod  by their request to release as “Bill Owen” signature edition later this year. Here are all of the photos. Feel free to post any questions.

 

"This unique case disrupts the traditional concept of a PC case, splits components into three cabins; three high hardness “V” shape metal frames and full metal shells ensure Tristellar has a reliable and solid structure, the system is not only for an artistic appearance, but also a great cooling performance by separating the most heat-generating parts of a PC. The case supports the latest gaming configuration, it is an excellent choice for gamer or PC builder who want a case with both high performance and aesthetics."

Thanks for the comments everyone! This was prototype for retail version Deepcool will be offering as "Bill Owen Edition" later this year. ...Crazy!! I never dreamed I would see my name on a PC case listed on Newegg... I hope it opens more doors to working with other manufacturers!

I share video of this PC Mod in my recent VLOG

My Tristellar limited edition case is set for release by Deepcool this Fall. CPU Magazine published a detailed article about the case in this month's issue. You can read the Digital edition free here, http://www.computerpoweruser.com/DigitalIssues/ComputerPowerUser/CP____1507__/

Man that thing's pretty B.A. I like it, it looks like a case you can buy. I don't mean to insult you, that's actually a compliment. It almost looks like it's stock because it's so well done.

that's probably the best case/mod that I've ever seen. The presentation is outstanding.

Thanks for checking out my build and commenting. Also wanted to mention it was important to Deepcool that I didn't make any radical changes to the chassis, so they could easily adapt my modifications to their design. Having to create new factory molds or stamping would have driven up retail costs. This is why the louvered grills are bolt-on parts.

CPU Magazine just tweeted at me.. Apparently my Tristelllar PC is on display at their Quakecon event booth, going on this weekend. It's nice to hear it's being shown at events!

Please let any case manufacturer you know that I would like to continue helping them create new case designs!

Thank you for all of the views and comments! Newegg has already sold 6 of the 25 cases so far. I'll take that as good news, since it was only released 2.5 weeks ago. I did ask that Deepcool tells Newegg to post better photos, they really are poor, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811853016

Thank you for the kind words. My goal is to create a custom mid tower that is more affordable for everyone. I caught a local customer unbox my Deepcool Tristellar case in my latest vlog and I giveaway a new Thormax GIANT tower, too! To enter, tell me how you would use it in my video comments. Just click on video link to bring you to the comments page. I'll reply to individual I've chosen as winner on 1/16/16
