Project: I AM IRON MAN

[Graffix3001]

Love the way this is looking. Following now.

This fricking bend took 4 pieces of tubing, my wife's assistance, slightly burnt fingers, and a pair of vicegrips to get in place... Totally worth it. 

 

 

 

DAT BEND

[diluzio91]

My first of 2 EL panels came in, So here's the album for fitting the top lighting. 

 

 

Plexi Fixed in place

 

 

EL Panel wired and installed

 

 

Lit up. Hulkbuster Approves. 

 

 

Got the mask almost complete. 

 

Paint!!

 

 

and peel. 

 

 

Still waiting on the EL panel for the front mask... The computer is sitting on my desk, windows is installed... Overclocking is complete... but where's the fun of showing off the final pictures before everything's complete!!

There's a slight buzz, you have to mess with the positioning of the panel or the entire thing sounds like it's vibrating.

Where's the wire for that EL panel? I can't seem to find it in the pictures...

It runs through the top directly behind the motherboard tray. When the second EL panel gets here I'll show off the cable management in the back part of the case.

I meant "where (and how) does it connect to the panel"? In your pictures of the panel there is simply no wire visible

loving the build, but it seems like the sharp corner on the windows needs to be angled like all the other corners. It's just kinda sticks out.

If you Didn´t paint the fins on the radiators it would have looked better but It´s still sexy af as it is

[Rowan Call]

 

Floor is good to go. After a ton of polishing I got rid of all that orange peel

 

 

Removed the masking

 

 

And got it installed.

 

 

This is gonna be sexy. If you didn't have what seems to be an amazing wife (for helping you in this project), you could probably just carry this around with you and woo all of the women.

Awesome build.  

[3rcr]

wow 

much fast 

such machine

many red

[diluzio91]

Great final result but if i was to complain about one thing in the build it would be how the cable for the gpu goes over the tubing, this is a personal issue but otherwise awesome build

 

It came down to me not being comfortable with the bend in the cables routing them behind the tubes TBH

[Necrodead]

Silver plug on res! Unacceptable! JK but it would really pop if it was gold like the fittings IMO. Really great execution of theme and colours. Now if I only liked Iron Man.... ahaha.

Go on Instagram and look up @officialpcmr .

They posted some pictures of your build today.

Nice job! I've always been a "phan" (get it? Phanteks?) of the Enthoo Evolv. I really like the light up panels

Heh... yeah, I kind of outed my reddit username... Gotta go hide all the porn now. 

[ALXAndy]

Lovely, but I still don't like the black.

[diluzio91]

Just for giggles, My wife took pictures of my ghetto photo studio set up in the living room. 

 

The backdrop area

 

Using the projector as a studio light

 

 

I hung the back drop from a curtain rod and a door using some clothes line... yep.... but the results were good at least.

tthis is a very nice build the only thing I dont like is the hard tube that is going at an angle to the graphics card

Thanks Gobumon (SP?)

 

The bend was sadly more of a clearance issue than anything, If I made it 90* there wasn't enough straight tube to get a good seal on the fitting. I also do all my bends freehand.

I assumed that was the case but I was nit picking

[diluzio91]

Also. after some tinkering here's some benchmarks! 

 

Stock clocks

 

 

CPU @ 4.3

Gpu at

Temps were topping out at 68 (package) on CPU and 65 (core) Gpu.
