Damn, thought there was an update

WantoN · 14 Sep 2015 at 15:13

6 Weeks no update. Gutted

savagesam117 · 14 Sep 2015 at 16:06

Buuutt.. Something is coming soon

Fantastic. Though when you plan to retire/sell the PC, it might be hard to resell individual components.

Hey guys! Time for another update and another very awesomely epic update.

I am very proud to announce that MSI have been so gracious been so gracious to offer support the project.

HUGE thank you to Tom @ MSI UK for helping out with the project. I will be ordering the CPU immediately and the mobo should be in tomorrow. Once all the gear is tested, the watercooling and weathering can commence! Not going to enjoy weathering such nice expensive gear, but it has to be done to fit in with the theme.

Since the last update, I've been so busy with work, but I did manage to get a few things done, namely some accessories, Nuka Cola bottle and other items I am still working on/ wondering how to finish.

BIG thanks to Chris at Overclockers for sorting this awesome little 3-D printed Vault-Boy out too!

Thanks so much for looking, hopefully some more updates soon!

Looking good

pexonpcs · 18 Sep 2015 at 08:47

Cheers man, going to go for it now. ill definitely have it finished for the big day in November!

Hey guys, time for another update!

The new board arrived on friday afternoon. The B150 is potentially an interim board as the z170M version has been delayed. If the Z170 doesn't come through, I will just stick with the B150. I plan on using the 6600K with it, even compared to my current 2500K and 280X, the 980ti and 6000K will blow it out the water, good job considering I am going 4K.

The awesome reinforced PCI-e slot

Going to test the board and the GPU before I go to town with the weathering on the heatsinks

Thanks for looking guys.

Again, a HUGE thank you to MSI for supporting this project

Congrats on getting some help with it, really like coming here and finding an update to this one.

Looking excellent!

Luggs · 21 Sep 2015 at 08:27

I love this build so much, not only because it is being done to such an excellent level of quality, but also as there is something deeply satisfying in taking brand spanking new components and #@cking them up

pexonpcs · 21 Sep 2015 at 22:00

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Datamonkey · 22 Sep 2015 at 13:34

Just had to edit this, as its not ace, ITS EPIC!!! you have an excellent talent there fella!

Subbed,

Can I suggest you use the Nuke Cola bottle as the res for the watercooling?? that would be excellent.

Also the coolant would look cool as a dirty oily substance

faheemrazzaq · 22 Sep 2015 at 14:08

mate its looking great so far. all you need is a hand grenade to go with it
