Hi guys,

Back with a small update on this build.

Showcasing a few Bitfenix items, Alchemy LED strips, white Spectre PRO 120mm fans with blue LED as well as some sleeved SATA cables.

Also a package arrived from Bitspower carrying a lot of awesome goodies for this build as well as my other ongoing build Project Isolation.

Let's check it out!



Lots of fans

Hi guys,

It's been a while but I think I'm ready to start working on this project again and hopefully finish it this time!

I've just been busy with work and other projects this kept getting pushed aside.

Let's kick of the progress with some acrylic panels that I have added to the case as well as the vinyl work done to them!

Also if you can see I now have a clear windowed panel on the front however more work will be done to that.



















PSU I will be using is the Corsair HX750i





Thanks for checking it out and stay tuned for more on this build coming shortly!

Cheers,

Alex

Hey guys,

I added some paint, vinyl and frosted the acrylic in the front panel. It's really coming along now!

There's even more work that will be done to the front panel however, stay tuned!





















Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks mate! Once you'll see what I add behind it, it should make more sense. I hope it's gonna look good in the end

 

[Silver_Pharaoh]

Yeah that frosted look is really cool!

Hi guys,

A small update on this build

I did a bit more work on the PSU shroud after painting it white. I used a Sharpie permanent marker to trace the Bitfenix logo in order to give it a bit of a contrast.

It was a very easy thing to do, hope you guys like it. Stay tuned for more updates.







Cheers,

Alex

Okay guys, some of you may have been wondering where I'm going at with the front panel of the case. I first cut this massive hole in it, it then add a windows only to frost it.

Well I hope these pictures give you an idea hehehe, I will leave it at that.





























Thanks for checking it out!

Cheers,

Alex

Waiting to see the results!!!

Hey guys,

So I've been working on the reservoir for the front panel and so far so good. After a few days of leak testing it seems to be all good. Here are the progress shots and the completed reservoir.

The acrylic cement glue I used to glue it all. This is actually super strong stuff if you've never heard or used it before. It actually bonds the acrylic to itself and creates a nice seal.



First test



And the start of the res





I first tested it without fully sealing it just to see if the first part would pass



Once testing was all good I proceeded to sealing it up





.

And here it is





Sorry for the lack of quality in these photos, they were all taken on my phone.

Stay tuned for more.

Cheers,

Alex

I knew it was a res! I just didn't want to say it and be wrong...
