A very unique-looking build so far!

You must have been getting a lot of rain if you felt you needed a rubber dinghy close to hand....

Added some gold LED's to light the internals a little more.
Can't really see it because of the arc reactor being so bright haha

To Do List:
Fit new custom loop
Create custom cylinder Horizontal stand
Re-paint Titan X Casing
Titan X backplate gold chromed
Clear laquer the case to create gloss effect
Finish braiding the other cables
Red LED's fitted on underside of motherboard for an underglow effect.
Fit the touch 2100 properly
Pre-light the mayhen aurora coolant for more ''aurora'' look.
dim arc reactor lights

Totally mental, I love it! Work of art mate

Good work dude, this is awesome!

Teaser video i made today of the build, purely out of boredom.
Hate not having anything to do.. So enjoy

waiting for the larger cylinder res to arrive. we tried a 420mm rad on the back, however it doesn't fit

On another note, big thanks to be quiet! for the PSU.

Using the smaller cylinder.. I don't know why, it just looks better in the case than the big one does. :/
GPU Expected tomorrow, then back on track for project completion

the MOBO will be w/c'd as well. however waiting for the compression fittings is a complete joke.

I'm ignoring the cables at the back until i'm closer to finishing. Last thing i want to do is tidy them up and then have to take it appart again.

This just gets better and better!

Thanks man, Just changed out those gold lights.
Too much gold killed it.
Fingers are crossed i get the GPU and compression fittings soon. Can get this build finished and move to my next one.

Incredible work

Mad work, crazy stuff! But super awesome!

Moraytech · 9 Jun 2015 at 18:03

Lighting update. Added white lights instead of gold lights.
White really brings out the red and gold better

ED209 · 9 Jun 2015 at 20:28

must agree, the white lighting does make it look a lot better

Moraytech · 10 Jun 2015 at 12:10

New cheapy mouse i bought for the build. Just for show, won't actually use it lol

Moraytech · 10 Jun 2015 at 21:09

Things left to do:
Customize the titan X when it finally makes it's appearance.
Polish up the paint job.
Fit the MOBO compression fittings / finish the loop
Install the be quiet! dark power pro 11 PSU
and that should be it done and dusted.

While waiting for the titan x to arrive, i've gone ahead and painted one of my previous graphics cards gold and red (MSI GTX 960 4GB OC)

Dr Delphi · 10 Jun 2015 at 21:51

That looks brilliant, definitely something Ive not seen before.

Moraytech · 10 Jun 2015 at 22:28

For the time being, just one single coat of gold paint on the graphics card. Don't wanna lair it on too thick as i want to remove it later.
Wish the titan x would arrive already. This will do for now i guess.

Moraytech · 11 Jun 2015 at 09:47

Titan X Backplate came in. Looks pretty! Not gonna be black for long.
13/10mm compression fittings arrived for the motherboard.
Will get the loop finished tonight
