Project Omega (900D Build)

Ok, new update since I've got some time to get it together!

Finally got the major braided cables done. I laced them with alpenwasser's tutorial

Here's the 4+8 pin










The 24 pin

Very messy

All the cables after


Routed the power switch cable under the motherboard. I think i'll do this for all the front panel stuff and cover up the bottom holes totally.


The bottom right hole is now a big mess. I'll need to do a new backplate for it. This time it should expand on the current one and wrap around the motherboard too.


Another after shot:


Don't think i've shown my new ducky shine 3






I got some new RAM as it was lacking in white around the motherboard area. Plasti-dip works quite well.












Plans left:
-Finish cables - I've expanded this to the fan controller too. I will mount it in the front of the case
where there is room rather than shoving it in the back.
-Paint fans white
-Block off the bottom 2 holes (probably from the back, though i could fit some wrap over them to mask them)
-Mask the optical drive area
-Get some sleeved SATA cables with the same sleeve as the other cables
-Mount the SSD in front of the ODD bays
-Custom white/black/orange backplate for the GPU

Thanks guys

Bit of a stab in the dark but what are you doing with that stock 780 cooler? I would be very interested in talking that off your hands!

At the moment it's stuck in the 780 box, but i would prefer to keep it in case i choose to use it in another system or on a test bench for example. Sorry

Any updates ?

Not at the moment. I'm waiting for the guys at coldzero to get their UV printer so i can get the GPU backplate done, and order a few other things at the same time.
