Introduction

 

Hey all, My names Jason and Welcome to my build log!

 

This is my first build log on LTT ( well for build log period really) so i hope you all enjoy! I have decided to do this build because recently i have been running into issues with my current pc, and instead of figuring out what the problem is i decided it was time for an upgrade! This time, i decided to go big. I mean im 20 with to much money and not enough to spend it on so why not.

 

"Freljord" is a white and blue themed build, featuring my custom painted Corsair 900D and is all paid for from my own pocket. This build however will not be completely finished for a few months as i plan on expanding and upgrading parts in the future. For now, This will do and i think my wallet agrees. This is my first Hard Line build so i am taking this as a learning experiance and am looking forward to the challanges that will arise.

 

Anyway, please enjoy my build log and feel free to leave comments/suggestions :D !

So, i am after your guys opinion before i move to the next step. I am wondering, should i paint the fans to match the build? I was thinking maybe blue? And if anyone knows how to go about that i would really appreciate some help haha.
 
Thanks for looking

Update 2:

 

Case painting has been delayed due to the painters underestimating the amount of time it would take to complete. Should have it by Friday, however im currently on shift so progress will be slow. Really just waiting on the case to be finished so i can reassemble it and install the componants.

 

Then comes the fun part, planning the loop and bending then tubing!

 

Sorry for the lack of updates, just not alot of progress to be made until the case is back.
