    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Yeah, it's a beast. I'm using mostly for display purposes. Most people end up putting 2 more radiators up top (like 2 more 480mm radiators) and fill it up with insane amounts of cooling capacity.

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Messing with the Aquacomputer Farbwerk RGB LED controller and where I plan to put the LED strips. So far I have one strip up top and one down below. Not sure where I would put any others. Maybe another down below over the 240 radiator, and maybe another along the opposite side of the mid plate...

    I love that Koolance 380i block. So very sexy! Same for the dual pump bay res.

    I'm getting lazy in my old age ... I ordered 2 USB3.0 sleeved extensions (in white). I really didn't feel like making them from scratch, so ... now the wait begins. I also ordered a bunch of clear sleeving combs. This should help to display the power wires I will sleeve from scratch ... the...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    My pleasure. It's all computer related ... even build related ... since this case is a BEAST and I have to move the monitor that is attached to the wall because the counter is only 25" deep, because .... (Don't you just love how I can tie everything up in a nice little related package?)

    Here are a couple of them, I think I had an iPhone 2 or 3 back then, so the image quality wasn't all that great. Here is the room after installing new hardwood floors. I also had to do some work on the closet (obviously) and here is a shot of where I put in a header to bring the door frame...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    It is a little shallow, which is the main reason why I HAD to use wall mounted VESA mounts on all the monitors. If you do that, then it is plenty of room, because you don't need to lose 6 or so inches to a monitor base. The standard top is 25 inches, which is plenty if you wall mounts stuff. The...

    Just a minor update. The paint is dry on the rear brace after the mod to accommodate 2 screws that I removed from the back of the case and forgot about. Not the most elegant, but since its on the rear of the case and will never be seen, it ain't bad. So hopefully tonight I'll get a little...

    Are you planning on making an acrylic insert that will be below the motherboard? I find those "clean up" the look of a motherboard tray and their ton of holes that they have to have to allow for a variety of motherboards and cable pass through options. Not to mention sort of "show case" the...

    I love the acrylic work and the venting on the front of the case ... and of course swapping out the cheap plastic window for acrylic. Those three things, even if you did nothing else to this build, would make it awesome. Very clean looking, much better viewing, and awesome air flow. :punk:

    AMD's GPU marketshare continues to fall

    Even after the refresh of the 200 series cards into the 300 series and the launch of their brand new "Fury" line with the much vaunted HBM memory. nVidia climbs to 82% of the market share while AMD falls to just 18%. This from 77%/23% Q1 2015 and 76%/24% Q4 2014. Not looking good for team red...

    As crazy as this sounds, when we bought the house, I took one of the smallest bedrooms and made it into a dedicated computer room/office for me and the wife. We had multiple 20A lines run for power, CAT6 everywhere, and for a "desk", we actually used kitchen counter and cabinets top and bottom...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Thank you. I still have a long way to go. After getting to this point, I realize I will have to order a couple more parts ... like 2 USB3.0 extensions. The ones that come with the case are butt ugly and too ridged. Now to locate a company that can make 2 of them, either nicely sleeved or at...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Good lord this thing is quiet compared to the old rig with dual D5 pumps. Because of the Aquaero 6XT able to control everything, even when gaming with the glass side off (don't ask, I have to mod the rear brace to allow clearance for 2 screws), the system 2 feet away from my ears is only 38dBA...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Today I got a ton of work done. I still have a lot to go, but at least the system is out of the old Switch 810 case and in the Core X9 and is running. First step was to rip everything out of the original Muzzle Flash, a gunmetal Switch 810 case. I pulled the CPU water cooling loop out...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    So car troubles aside, I did manage to get some more work done on the build. I got the two slots in the mid plate cut, secured the stealth hard drive plate better, mounted the LED controller and USB hub, a little more sleeving, hooking up the water cooling loop like before for another leak test...

    Well, yesterday (my birthday) didn't start off so well. I took the new 2015 Ford Fusion out to do all my running around, and after getting up early and headed out, I stopped into a gas station to fill up and nothing. The car wouldn't start again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMPpiU8kPeI So...

    Yeah, tomorrow, Saturday is the BDay. Well, by "blew up" I mean I was routing the extension cable that went from the NZXT Grid on the 240 radiator and a wire broke. Then I couldn't get the damn connector out of the grid and got frustrated and just walked away, mainly because before that I just...

    Work in progress Muzzle Flash III: White Death

    Yeah, I'm having some issues. I busted a wire, and had to tear the whole system down. Then after that, I did another stupid thing and had to tear the whole system down again. Now I got all the wiring done and routed, and just need to cut the holes in the acrylic for the power wires. I took a...
