There is a world beyond the front page and Youtube

Good Point

last time I modded a PC was sometime back 20 odd years ago on a chenbro case. Last time cause I did a terrible job and they werent cheap cases for me then.

they were modern compared the the time I am talking about and also did not chop tips of fingers off

Nah, did that with a diablotek case. Never again did I purchase that. It was P3 era. That was first custom built for me.

HA HA, k2 days for me, visiting the local metal works for custom waterblock, car heater matrix or motorcycle rad and fish pond pumps, people dont know how easy they have it now.... I miss p3 and p4 days though when overclocking the fsb was possible so much speed increase from doing that it made newer cpus irreverent, probably why they changed it all lol

Maybe I'll hit you up in pm in future for modding advice. I got some old machine my sister handed to me so I can beat the heck out of the case.

Do so, if I dont respond within 24 hours msg again my memory is pretty bad due to service injury.

Mine is bad from years of alcohol abuse. So do not worry.

nice but not a fan of sponsored builds where you pay nothing for parts just to be a shill for your sponsors hardware.

That is your right to have the opinion, but also my right to accept these items, I still put in the same work and save the cash on parts which is a win win and enables me to do far more mods than i would of been able to normally and I am not being a shill by accepting them, I turn stuff down regular, on builds because i dont like whats offered, if I was a shill i would take everything I got offered.

I think it's unfair to criticise someone for doing a job well. It doesn't matter if the parts are sponsored, the work involved and the outcome is the product. The industry is full of sponsored PR. At least in this case (no pun intended), the parts are a component of an artistic endeavour. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion but for the sake of keeping things civil, let's not make the 'sponsored' nature of this mod a distraction from the work involved. And as is quite obvious, the modder has attained this level of sponsorship by hard work. It's how things work - you get good enough at something, people start paying attention and make your hobby a dream. I guarantee the OP started from scratch.

It would not have got out of hand as I replied to him he is entitled to his opinion everyone is, I am not nor will be judgemental about it. Thanks for the kind words and yes I did start from scratch, let me just say the wife is a lot happier now and so are my credit cards

 

[HammerON]

Sub'd for an awesome looking build

off topic, but, when did you become a mod??? i stop visiting for a little while and you get a promotion? it's nice to know that this forum is still in good hands.

 

[phill]

[rchiileea]

Thank you, yes I have been modded now, well had something removed

 

[phill]

Just wishing you well for a nice and safe recovery and just looking forward to some updates whenever they appear

 

[Athlonite]

Oh wow this is an awesome mod build

 

[rchiileea]

So sorry for the lack of updates guys as you know the pandemic has affected us all, but the good news is the footage is done, photos are done and will be published this coming week , just need to figure which ones to go in mod log and which ones to host on a image host due to after culling i am still left with over 100 photos lol.

 

[phill]

Ain't no problem @rchiileea !! Take your time and do it right, can't wait to see the results

 

[rchiileea]

So guys got there in the end, here are the pictures here, more can be seen here in larger format, this last year has been a bit strange for us all. Lets hope 2021 keeps us all safe and getting back to some normality, I wish all of you to stay safe, anyway enough of the rumbling on here are the completed pictures.

That’s it for the layout, now lets look at the items on the desk to go with the build.

I love how these turned out, this is on the left side of the build and tie in nicely I think

Then on the right side due to that side of the case being black with the red and white samurai case I done this to the external devices.

All the Painted items (headsets and mice) were done with a metallic silver, then green and blue and white mix of pearlescent on left side and the same but with red pearl on other, then the red was scuffed down to give some wear and tear, on the mice I coated them with candy yellow, then lacquered them with more than enough coats so I could when not fully cured but ok to touch could then rough up the finish, but only in areas fingers would touch.

On the headsets, I just used matt lacquer and then went to town scuffing that up as well to match the whole wear/worn effect on the pc. The full gallery of build can be viewed here all 122 pics

Loving the build but the only thing I will ask is there any RAM in the left hand side section?? Otherwise if not, you might be loosing a bit of performance there!! I could see the dude hanging so I just wondered if he was taking over the build from the inside out.....

stupidly done a bios update a day before studio time and it done something, rather than reschedule with strict lockdown rules coming in 3 days later i went ahead.
