Wifes HAF Mod..Better HAF?

Also, ups says the new rad will be here Monday.
 
so, I have been very bad about photo updates and doing an actual "log" for this. but, heres a quick thing ive been doing tonight while I wait on the new radiator....and cause my house is pretty empty, save the things we didn't want the movers to take.

I had lace left over so I decided to put it to use. I think it looks pretty sweet too. got a few more hoses to do.

 
it does look sweet. maaaaaaaaaaaaaaD
 
I got em all done, now just waiting......

wow ... :twitch:
 
Thanks again Greiver!

I got bored again and mounted a little typhoon lcd to one of the bay face covers. Should be legit, but we'll see.
 
Hey all, a little about current events:

Got the new radiator, all is well with it. But, I had to ditch the maximus v gene and go with the msi I had, as the gene is dead. It's a 3x rma, and bout to be 4th. The movers shipped my excess pc stuff so ill have to wait till I pick up my goods to rma it. It lights up, but won't turn on, so needless to say, after the rma and when I get a actually working board, ill be done with asus products.

Should call the mod "headache machine".

But, got the fan controller working off the CPU pwm header, the lcd design is working for temps and load, and oc'd the 3570k to 4.8 @ 1.3v. (67c max during stress). The 7970 I have isn't a real clocker, but ill see what can be done with it.

Looking to take pics today when I get home.

Also, I'm officially on terminal leave (12yrs USMC) and stoked about my new job in phoenix. Yay me..... I guess.

I don't think im forgetting anything......

lace on the front black mesh areas and tubing.
red rhinestones capped into the heads of the screws

That actually turned out even better than I expected.

10/10, no question about it. Well done, Sir.
 
McSteel, I really appreciate it! thanks!
 
:clap:well from me is a 20/10 10 for result and a extra 10 for originality:toast: cheers!
 
Damn! That's gorgeous!
Hope she likes it as much as we do :p
 
Thanks Greiver and Murderer!

and yes, she digs it :)
 
That looks great man. And to think, I though it was going to look like a cheap Geisha house, this turned out awesome.
 
Thanks mad shot. Although, you say "cheap geisha house" like they are bad lol. Jk.
 
Little update here:

It's still running strong. And while I think its better than the station 6 mod, I guess CPU magazine doesn't..... Anyway, I need to post some pics to the mod gallery now that I'm moved and settled in.
