Progress as of 2016-11-29

[duality92]

So I just got confirmation from AMD that I'll be getting an A10-7890K for the final piece of hardware

[duality92]

All of it's cables are cut at 3 inches already

[duality92]

I redesigned the motherboard tray yesterday as I found that I wouldn't be able to mount the motherboard to the radiator with the layout I had designed previously because of the motherboard mounting. (couldn't access the 140mm fan holes with the motherboard installed). Now I can install the motherboard somewhat easier AFTER fixing it to the radiator.

Try and figure out what all the cable combs are for 32 total wires at the end.

[duality92]

Here are pictures of my custom case for the HDPlex 160W (new revision). Since it's a PicoPSU style power supply and I didn't want to mount it to the motherboard, this is my solution

[duality92]

Here is an update. I have completed the power supply case, the power supply bracket and the pump bracket. The main thing left to do is finalize the motherboard mount and make a few spacers for various locations to keep things even. Possibly 140mm fan grills too if I have long enough M3 screws.

[duality92]

So the build isn't dead and I appologize for the lack of updates, I was faced with a big problem, the motherboard I had modded to remove the 24-pin and 4-pin connectors didn't survive the surgery I put it through. I had to order a new motherboard and design a custom PCB to achieve the look I was after

[BeardRex]

Interesting

[AstroBenny]

I have literally no clue what you're making, Please explain

[duality92]

Initially, I desoldered the 24-pin and 4-pin connectors to solder wires directly to the back of the motherboard, but the guy who I had do this for me wasn't experience enough and ended up killing the board. So I will be making a custom PCB with a male 24-pin on one side to connect to the motherboard and I will be soldering wires to the otherside, so that wires pass under the motherboard and are not visible.

[duality92]

Here is the custom PCB with everything soldered

[duality92]

PSU and SATA power sleeved

[Nicnac]

looks interesting!

[duality92]

So here are the final pictures

Not 100% happy with how things turned out to be honest, so there will definetly be a Verticality II eventually!
