Do you mean the EVGA lettering?

Looks amazing that does Colin!! I wish I could afford one of them bridges too expensive for my taste though haha
I have a brand new one spare now that I don't really need ! I'm thinking it looks good enough on the old bridge. I have more money than sense, I should have tried the carbon after my crap spray job. I'll have to try for some sponsors next build to keep cost down.
Trying to overclock Midas right now will see what it can do...

Hmmmm I'd have to mod it to make it glow as im using 6 series cards still, but I might buy it from you haha.

Loving that bridge, nice to see some variation with the texture effect on it
I really like it tbh Rain, the swirl effect is rather cool. Spraying it neatly was a bit too fiddly for me anyway. The only other thing is that the three black strips don't actually light up, I was always under the impression they did which was kinda sad when I realised considering the effort I've gone to trying not to paint them lol
My pics don't really do it justice its much nicer in the flesh.

I think with the black lines gold too, it would be too much tbh. I think they look great!
I can't believe I haven't actually commented on this build. Absolutely incredible, this has t be one of the most stunning builds on this site, the attention to detail is fantastic. I'm loving that SLI bridge, and those connectors look like a mission dollars. Outstanding work buddy I hope one day I can have a rig that is at least 1/4 as good looking as this.

Why thank you, it makes all the hardship and stressful times worthwhile when I read comments like this, so I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. I will have some evolution of Midas in the future.
Yeah Midas is a wee bit bling but some of the pics make it looks very bright where in real life its more subtle.
Its hard to work with Gold, but I think its come out pretty good tbh and I was so worried it would just look garish, but I think I've avoided that. There was a temptation to add more gold to various grills etc, but I've managed to resist.
I would like to still have the word "Midas" somewhere but still not sure how or where to do it. Thanks for your comments.
Lovely build mate looks like you've put a lot of attention to detail in!! I must admit i'm not a huge fan of black and gold colour scheme but your's looks fantastic
Have you thought about putting Midas where the Phantek logo is in the 2nd window? Obvious place?

I cut away the section that had the phantek logo on, saved the little Phantek plate though. I'm sure I could do something for the window though, have to have a wee think about that.
