HOLY BATCRAP!
stunning, simply stunning! you should put this up for auction or as a competition prize. or just keep it tbh as its just fantastic
Definitely something we will consider doing. Will be holding onto it for the summer as it will be on display at a number of LANs/events. Until we do another project this one will be our little baby!
Beautiful and inspiring, I can find no other words to describe it.
Well done everyone @ Parvum, such a build should be placed behind glass on display somewhere.
Oh while I remember I have a little acrylic related question for you, what speed should I be drilling 3mm thick sheets at and are regular hole saws ok to use? I'm guessing around 4-500 rpm should be fine I just don't want to crack it. Given my job, its quite ironic I haven't got a clue what speed to use, I could tell you how to cut most commercial metals under the sun but plastics I'm lost.
Also is it easy enough to shorten down a sheet by running a blade down the desired cut line then just bending it to snap off?
Thanks for the kind words.
As for the drilling. What kind of hole size are you trying to cut? Obviously as we have access to CNC we would CNC all holes using our standard single flute cutters. If we where to do it by hand I would advice trying a couple of options. Spade bits are much better than hole saws from what we've found. It's important where possible to clamp the material really well & if you can have something underneath at the cut through point to avoid chipping towards the end of the cut. 500 RPM is a pretty good place to be with acrylic.
It's more about the plunge than the RPM. You just have to go incredibly slow and let the drill do the work.
Report back with your results!
I can't help but feel it would be better without the text on the side. But that's just me...
Otherwise it's a testament to what Parvum can do - looking forwards to getting my own S1.0 to play with.
And may be in touch about some extra metal cubes to mod the case with (if that's possible)
Been a pleasure watching this take shape - some truly inspiring details and workmanship
Yeah it's always the thing with branding. We knew to a lot of peoples tastes simple clean acrylic can look nicer and give a more elegant feel but we wanted this one branded up for ROG. We've used ROG equipment from the start so this was a props to there amazing hardware.
We can sort some extra cubes out for you yeah. Email us your address to -

Wow real nice build. That watercooling is just excellent and the colour scheme is great.
However, imho the fans are a bit flashy and over the top, I would prefer if they were less glossy and understated. But hey, thats just me.
Thanks for the kind words. Understandable on the fans. The clusters can be like Marmite we've noticed on the internet. We've used them in most of my builds and still love them. Other than the water block LEDs these are the only light source in the build and the subtlety of that kinda makes up for it. We almost went with some matte white fans but didn't find 80mm versions.
We grew to love the gloss of the Enermax in this build as the paired nicely with the gloss in the acrylic tubing.
Wow cant belive im only just coming in to look at this, its beyond awsome! Nice one
Wow man...
That is some fine work!
REALLY well done.
one word AMAZING!
I WANT IT!
I keep popping back in here to check for updates thinking nothing can make it any better. How wrong I am every time. Keeps on improving, great job sticking to clean design and aesthetics that are stunning to look at.
Think there needs to be a new word invented to describe this build because all the other typical ones wont do it justice.
Its just........
I have rated this thread 5 stars.
I think others should do the same too.
Just wow..
