Hello! This is my first thread here. I would like to show what I have been developing recently.
FINAL PHOTOS ADDED (28-12-2015)
----------------
It started with Hadron Air, small stylish and no airflow at all. Took me some time to mod it as I decided to fit ATX power supply inside. Things were so crammed, temps were going crazy.
I thought to myself - how hard can it be to make my own case? Since I have access to machinery I decided to have a go, then this came up.
Basic frame worked fine for me so I started to add more things to it.
I was quite happy with everything so far, apart from the front foot, which wasn't bent quite as expected. I had to change that and come up with some fan covers.
Came up with the idea to mount power supply at 90 degree angle, so new bracket made:
I was also testing my old gtx 770 lightning. Much cooler than kingpin:
Finally after some time:
And some better photos with dslr:
I have also decided to have my H80i on the side, new bracket to fit:
Stuff inside:
i7 4790K
Z97i Gaming AC
2 x 4GB Dominator Platinum 2133
850 Pro SSD
780ti Kingpin
H80i+Noctua NF-F12 2000RPM PWM
4 x Noctua NF-S12B Redux 1200 RPM PWM
In Battlefield 4 (no OC) with room temp @ 22.5 deg C:
CPU @ 66 deg. C (fan at 90%)
GPU @ 74 deg. C (fan at 70%)
Firestrike - 12049 points:
-CPU @ 4.7 GHz
-MEM @ 2133MHz
-GPU core @ 1270MHz
-GPU mem @ 3542MHz
Max registered temp during benchmark:
-CPU = 67 deg. C
-GPU = 79 deg. C (with custom fan curve in Afterburner with speed @ 80%)
I'm currently working to support water cooling, relocate SSD mounting bracket, some other tweaks.
Let me know what you guys think
