PaultanDesigns: Titanium R

This build is to add a new family member to my Titanium Builds.

 

I call it the Titanium R. There will be 4 kinds of Titanium that I will be releasing in the near future.

 

Titanium X - Extreme build with extreme parts and fully customized.

Titanium S - Super build with Mid-high end parts using Cosmos 2.

Titanium R - Radical build using Midrange parts and standard size chasis.

Titanium J - Jr. size build with M-ATX/ITX parts.

 

For this build we will build the TITANIUM R

 

With this, I will be using the new chasis from NZXT

 

The NZXT Source 530

1378386_10151708564283424_1329069565_n.j

 

This case is very compact but it has some serious space  inside.

 

what I like about this case is that the metal that were used are very rigid. And it also has very nice details.

 

For example,

the back of the case has some extruded mesh for the fans which gives more space.

1377398_10151708564708424_1082410207_n.j

 

I also like the idea that you could re-adjust where you will be placing your radiator just in case something is hitting your fans/rad

1379539_10151708564368424_845153740_n.jp

 

Other details, for a cheap price, I really like the way they made it fully compatible with water cooling support and the way the motherboard tray was design and created makes this special. 

 

So lets start doing some minor modding to it 

 

as some of you know, I always wanted rotated motherboard tray. With this case its very easy to convert. We just rotate the entire casing! :)

 

After removing the front plastic panel. 

1374081_10151708564303424_937660187_n.jp

 

I made some tracing to know where I should drill holes on the top panel. 

1385534_10151708564698424_1040985649_n.j

 

1176150_10151708564758424_946729934_n.jp

 

and then drill!

1381826_10151708565583424_105528413_n.jp

 

after a few minutes! Tada! we have converted the case into 90 deg rotated motherboard tray. 

 

1379672_10151708564948424_873167225_n.jp

 

1377293_10151708565028424_1997858125_n.j

 

Now I will make something for the back to make it look nice 

1186316_10151708565083424_1613856257_n.j

 

1379429_10151708565308424_1032037344_n.j

 

now let us add some more details! 

my design inspiration for this build is my favorite chair I saw one time at a store.

1380264_10151777003988424_1278078749_n.j

 

so with this, I started doing my concept design using photoshop

1450815_10151777017283424_320746178_n.jp

 

hopefully I can full it off. 

Now let's start doing it!

first is get some cardboard and drawing the pattern needed 

 

1380035_10151708565633424_399922739_n.jp

 

1209169_10151708565723424_1237756390_n.j

 

1384084_10151708565843424_587940261_n.jp

 

1376981_10151708565938424_1725000991_n.j

 

then test fit

1385862_10151708565993424_769824933_n.jp

 

now the side panels

1382022_10151708566428424_1344395191_n.j

 

now let's do some cutting! Safety first!

1382912_10151708567293424_1453235345_n.j

 

1384047_10151708566558424_1292179765_n.j

 

then sanding!

960014_10151708566633424_1367842024_n.jp

 

very smooth!

1378419_10151708566833424_1218054079_n.j

 

also the side panel

993407_10151708567288424_2136646516_n.jp

 

then some bending! 

1157509_10151708567403424_1386389466_n.j

 

love it!
