PROJECT LOG PROJECT ALPHA OMEGA (modded Corsair SPEC-ALPHA)

Wow you churned that build out fast! And it looks spectacular!!
I love all the green accents it works well with the light blue coolant


Looks like you had a really good time at the launch party too! Lucky guy!!

Looking great Alex! That release party looks like a blast.

2 questions.

1. Is Tom still working with nVidia or was he fired after the initial release party? Lol (this is in reference to the communication issues they were having. I doubt he was actually fired)

2. Are there plans for fan grill to protect your digits or just live on the wild side?

Thanks man! Hahaha I assume he still is though this was NVIDIA ANZ so different staff

As for the fans - just live on the wild side hahaha, I have no plans to cover anything

Thanks a lot mate! Yea I had to finish it pretty quickly, it was shipped out on Monday last week and I should get it back tomorrow. Fingers crossed it arrives in one piece

Hi guys,

I have some good and bad news unfortunately. The good news is, the build has just come back this morning from Melbourne and the bad news is that it is slightly damaged. It seems like the bottom of the box took at little hit.

There's a bit of a dent at the bottom however it can easily be put back with some hand force. I'm guessing from the shock as well that the acrylic on the front panel was shaken a bit and it ended up going into the fans scratching the green painted rings.

I'll be spending a couple of days this week on it before I bring you the final photos

However, for now I'll leave you with this quick video I took of the Bitspower waterblocks for the ASUS ROG GTX 1080 Strix graphics cards that I have in this build atm which will eventually go on the two cards


A few things I forgot to mention in the video. The waterblock comes with no backplate as it is fully compatible with the original backplate on the card meaning you can still use the RGB features on the original backplate. That combined with the RGB feature in the waterblock and should be a pretty nice looking set up

Also, I'm thinking with an extender as well as a splitter cable between two waterblocks, it should be able to be connected to an RGB controller on the new ASUS motherboards for more easy control.

Hope you guys enjoy this small update.

Stay tuned for more.

Cheers,

Alex

Damn Alex that sucks!!!

Can never trust the mail couriers... It's like they play basketball sometimes!

Dude, you're crazy.

But your combination of tech and aesthetic sense is amazing.

Ever since i first saw you use Mayhem's aurora in your loops ive always loved it and wanted to try it!

Hi guys,

Sorry for the late post, I've been super busy with work and some upcoming events!

Here are the final pics for the build!































Hope you guys like it and stay tuned as I'll have some videos and more content for this build!

Cheers,

Love it Alex! That is one sweet mod. Stunning!!

Personally, I would have liked to see some red LEDs inside the case. I think that would have looked really cool, like a rainbow kinda theme or something

Regardless of what I think I absolutely love it, it's up there with the green molecule!

Thanks a lot mate, appreciated! Ahh red LEDs would have ruined the NVIDIA theme

Hi guys,

The build plus a few of my others were on display at an NVIDIA NFAN event yesterday hosted at the flagship Microsoft Store in Sydney!

Will have photos and a video from the event soon however here's some quick snaps of how I transported the builds there hehe













Some of you may not have seen the gold one before. I will have a build log for this one up soon, it will be a post build log as the build has been finished for a few months now. I just didn't have time to do a build log at the time due to being in the process of moving to another city and adjusting

Anyways, stay tuned for more on Project Alpha Omega!

Cheers,

Alex

Everybody buckle up! Road trip!!
