Looking forward to this dave :)

How are you going about getting 2 x 360's in there (presuming in the bottom) with a PSU? Chop out the bottom pair of 5.25 brackets?

And 680 Tri-SLI? Beastly :D

That's the idea, it's why I've gone with crossflow rads though, hopefully I should be able to do it without having too many problems with the tubing then!

And they will be tri sli 670's at the moment because I sold my 680's (i really wasn't using them to their potential) but I might go for 3 770's in the near future if I can get them at the right price, at the moment I can't afford grab new gpu's and I've already got the 680 blocks that will fit the 670's

I haven't actually finished that parvum, it's still on my work bench! Il probably finish that in the next few days and Il get the build log updated! I did do another build last month, but it wasn't really anything special, so didn't bother doing a log for it.
 
I was looking at some auction sites as well.
I wanted to buy EVGA gtx 680 Signature 2, but was outbid right at my limit, meh.
Well, I may have to go for 770s after all.
But first waiting for the case, then mobo, then we'll see :)
 
Well, i started to type a bit of an update, then i realised.... my brand new (had it about a month) keyboard was way too black for this build.

So, i changed it to fit with H2Orange!

Because rjkoneill has been banging on about his brand NEW plastidip range in the latest products area, i would see what all the fuss was about!

i bought, i bet you can guess? yup, white and orange.

First, i took it apart... sorry warranty, i never liked you anyway.

Then, a couple of coats of white to cover the black as much as possible, this is the first coat, i think i did 2 more after this

then, cracked on with the "blaze orange" I love that colour!!!

the finish isnt bad at all, the only problem was my impatience, i should have given it at least another coat as it seems i consentrated on the sides you see the most (from the front view) and only did 1 coat on the 2 sides, you cant tell unless you look closely, but the black is certainly still there.

if i get some time, il probably just give it another coat, but its certainly fine for now:

So, not really an update with the build, but at least im getting in the mood ;)

Thanks folks!
 
Nice job on that keyboard Dave. That orange is really striking, love it.

Is there a texture to the plasti-dip coating that you can feel?
 
Hey Dave,
I'm a very happy bear today, my order from Primochill just arrived, 12 red 'ghost' fittings and 9 ft of blood red tube :-)
Funny, things I will need last arrived first, hehe.
 
Looking like a good start so far, Dave!

If you want a hand at any time, or need access to my garage, just yell, and you're more than welcome if I'm around! :)
