I actually took pics of the early stages of birth of my stacker including all the cool new parts, but unfortunately I was a total nublet (not deserving to even BE a nub :() and took them in movie mode on my camera so obviously we cannot see them. Anyways, recently there has been a lot of sexy pictures of stackers, so I decided to finally mod mine.

Everything assembled already. Guys I want you to meet the newest lady of my family, Arctic Night. Isn't she a darling?

If any of you are wondering, this case was inspired by my trip to Alaska a few years back. I tried to capture some of that northern lights effect shining in the early morning/late night on those beautiful glaciers they have. For those of you who checked out this mod, please leave me some feedback! :D
 
thanks i always like seeing white cases. black has gotten a bit old for me. thinking about purchasing another stacker for a server, the black stc-t01 and paint the inside white. seriously entertaining the name Twilight Sunrise and together they will be called the ying yang twins :D what do you guys think? next time i will NOT mess up and lose 50 some pictures of the early stages.
 
OOOH! Looks like my goodies came in the mail today!

So what exactly are they? A remote controlled relay switch, UV lights from vibelights.com, and one way mirror film! :D

Unwrapping my goodies and taking a picture of them!

I had to put molex pins on the relay switch and sleeving them. Also got a few 4pin to 3pin adapters to hook up the lights to the fan controllers.

Some close up shots of my new waterblock!

It isnt perfect but then again...ice is more opaque/liquidy/cracky then mirror like finish so it fits my theme pretty well.

Next update, installing the cathodes on the side panel, my new custom designed waterblock, and putting a toy pirate ship into reservoir!
 
lol can you put a price on family? if you ship me the parts and cover shipping ill be more than happy to mod it up and send it back for a small fee. :cool:
