which sleeving did you buy?

I use MDPC sleeving, I tried others but Nils has the best! Also tried other atx removal tools, the one you get from MDPC is the best, makes it so easy anyone can do it!

If you need any advice on sleeving just YouTube Lutro0!

Another update, all PSU cables are now sleeved!

*^* 24 Pin cable done!

*^* Monsoon Temperature sensor, before i decided the standard sleeving wasn't good enough....

*^* After I'd finished sleeving, a much cleaner look!

MorleySA could you grab me some? If you've not placed your second order yet...?

I've already placed and received my order mate sorry

On another note...I've ordered these fans for my build today.....

*^* I've ordered the B12-3 that spin upto 1900rpm @26.5dB

Also pre ordered the White Enthoo Primo!

MorleySA · 28 Feb 2014 at 16:52

The fans have arrived......

MorleySA · 28 Feb 2014 at 17:22

They shift a lot of air considering that they are rated at 26.5dB! altho i feel if they were pulling air through a radiator they will be a bit louder than that.

Any reason you chose black braid over white?

I debated over this for ages.....it basically came down to already having a lot of white in the build from the case, fans, radiator, fittings, cpu block and the ram, the only things to contrast against this is the RIVE VE motherboard the tubing and the cables... which are all black so hopefully it will look nice and clean!

.....fingers crossed!

Excuse my blonde moment on the Luxe thread lol. There must be someone else doing a white Enthoo I was chatting with also.

Haha no probs mate, if there is someone else get them to do a log!

*^* 2x Gaskets for 240mm Rad + 480mm Rad, also ordered an additional 2 Noiseblocker fans, and 2x White led's for the GPU blocks.

I never got a truly nice flush cut with scissors

Neither have i, hence why i got the ones i did! Very heavy duty and get a straight cut every time!

MorleySA · 9 Mar 2014 at 09:54

Slight update i've been discussing with my brother (Twitch profile) about possibly live streaming this build, what do you guy think? Let me know!

MorleySA · 10 Mar 2014 at 18:35

I have tested them, they perform very well with the radiators I'm using. Although i won't be using them at the full rated rpm.

MorleySA · 1 Apr 2014 at 14:22

So it seems as though the case has been delayed another month!

slow progress sorry there hasn't been any updates for a while!

Nice things are always worth the wait
But with that price, why don't you save up a little more and go for a Caselabs case?

I did look into getting a caselabs case, trouble is the one i would have wanted would have been the M8 the double wide version, with all the extra's i would want would have cost near on £500.

I still have no solid date when to expect the White Enthoo Primo, its my 30th on Tuesday and that is the new ETA for this case to arrive. Keeping my fingers crossed it arrives in time for my Birthday!

Hi peeps!

Small update i received an addition to my build today, think it will match my new PC perfectly! Let the pictures commence......

Regarding the case, it has been dispatched from OcUK (finally) so will upload the pics of the case tomorrow and get to work sleeving the cables inside!

MorleySA · 7 May 2014 at 23:03

Also the build will be streamed live @ http://www.twitch.tv/morleytv on Friday @19:00 GMT

MorleySA · 8 May 2014 at 14:19

Finally, the case is here! As i've been waiting so long i won't delay in uploading the pictures!

*^Thankfully the box was undamaged!

*^ I wanted to see how well the colour compared on the steel/plastic

*^ PWM Fan hub

My next task is to sleeve all the cables inside the case, hopefully this shall be done by tonight and i'll upload those pictures as soon as i'm done!

Thanks to everyone that has expressed interest in this build over the past couple months, the end is within sight!

MorleySA · 8 May 2014 at 14:54

it plugs into the PWM socket on your motherboard and your motherboard control's how much power is sent to the fans, all the hub does is distribute the power to 11 fans you can have connected to it.

I've stripped the case down as much as i can, thought i would take some pics of the case fully "naked" enjoy

MorleySA · 10 May 2014 at 07:23

Hey,

The build is almost complete, there is a few things i have to tidy up and i'm yet to sleeve the SATA power calble.

Let me know what you think of the build so far.....

*^ It looks to not match colour wise but its harder to tell the difference in natural light.

*^ Managed to get the cables and tubing routed through the hole already in place.

*^ A little bit tidier than before!

*^ Bottom tube that passes behind the motherboard tray.

*^ White and Black R.O.G. SLI Bridge

Thats it for any updates from me until Sunday, let me know what you guys think!

MorleySA · 10 May 2014 at 08:52

Thanks! It's hard to pick up on the camera but the GPU blocks are actually lighting up white too, the GPU's are 780GTX's
