Whoah, that's a hell of a light show! Nice build

thanks, it's not as bad as the pictures without flash, it is overly bright in them picture but IRL it's not that bad lol

Side panel window done, not brilliant but it will do till I get a new case.

LiamJ · 21 Apr 2011 at 14:36

Wow, that looks brilliant! Just a hole cut with a dremel then covered with perspex or did you send it away?

hyperst · 21 Apr 2011 at 14:40

Just a dremel to cut it out, bit of a pain and caught the case in a couple of places but it's not really noticeable, used some rubber u channel for trim and then stuck the window on with some double sided foam tape, it's a bit of a tight fit getting it back on, I left some double sided tape exposed at the back edge and think it sticks to the case when putting it on, will sort it out when I next take it off.

Sweet project mate, Gratz

hyperst · 14 Jun 2011 at 10:41

thanks guys, all change soon though, got a new case and a bigger rad to add

hyperst · 28 Jun 2011 at 21:49

well case swap is nearly complete, just awaiting a couple of fittings, heres a few pics

Nice! But why did you switch from the orange scheme? and what cables are you using? Pre-braid or you did yourself?

hyperst · 28 Jun 2011 at 23:35

well it was a bit of a mismatch on the orange, in the end i didn't really like it with the blue of the motherboard lights so decided on a complete change of colour and went with white to go with the fractal case, cables I did myself.

now up and running, only an hour or so to leak test as these compression fittings are real tight so I have faith in them

the white looks bloody awesome and much better than the previous colour scheme! good choice and well executed.

Mate this looks amazing, 10/10 - teach me cable management! XD

Bit of an update, have now got a few new part, namely an Asus Z77 motherboard and 2500k cpu, changed to clear pipes and blood red coolant.

Some pictures

Thinking of updating the fans to some red led ones and maybe a new pump in the near future, missing all the bling of led fans lately

Andyk-9 · 14 May 2012 at 23:02

OMG thats amazing!!! I am loving the white. Fantastic job hyperst

I was very interested in reading your first build from 2011 (see my thread project Galileo) as my case is pretty much the same as yours and i'm going to using almost the same sort of placements. Since yours is so good though I'm going to step have to step up my game and put a window in the side or do somthing different.

Yeah I need to do my window

, few more things to do as well, but it cost money which i'm short of

, wanting a PSU, pump, new cable's, new fans, lighting the list goes on and on, oh and also a side window in the panel with a grill for the bottom fans, I don't think I've seen yours, I'll take a look for it now.
