[ Stripe830 ]

[emir]

Hello everyone from Turkey

I wasn't touching my lovely case for a long time, she thought it will last 4ever like this but she's wrong
My theme for the modification is racing car stripe. I started the job with Photoshop. The color of the Stripe is the same with the wc coolant.

My old system and WC;
Abit Aw9 D-Max
Not yet decided CPU
Zotac 8800Gt AMP!
Not yet decided RAM
500+250 Gb HDD
Silverstone 500W
...

Tt CPU block
EK 8800Gt block
Aqua 240cm + Magicool120cm radiator
Tt pump
Handmade reservoir
PetrasTechShop UV coolant

Last innocent photos fo the victim.

Disassembling for the paint.

Sorry my bad, i forgot to introduce you with naked Stacker 830 ( +18 )

My best helpers with this mod.

I really, really, want some turtles now!

Hehe, good luck! Your plans look amazing.

 

[RADEoN]

i want your turtles what kind are they

 

[AVAFREAK182]

i want your turtles what kind are they

same. do they stay that small?

 

[filthysanchez]

They're red eared sliders, and no, they can get pretty big

 

[emir]

Yes they are red eared sliders They grow up if you keep their tank large. Small tank=small slider

The painting is done. I will mount the case within the day.

Surface is half shiny, not like mirror.

 

[AVAFREAK182]

Nice case!

Off topic...but what are their names?

 

[MomijiTMO]

Nice job so far. I think the turtles are pretty cute too but we kind of kill them in Australia since they are a pest .

 

[emir]

@AVAFREAK182 they don't have names because i never call them
@MomijiTMO that's too bad

 

[MomijiTMO]

Decided on a CPU yet?

 

[emir]

I'll use e2160 till Nehalem.

Just mounted the case

 

[SippieCup]

anyway, i subscribed to this thread.. should be good ^^

 

[AVAFREAK182]

[Arcygenical]

Killer paint job. Did you do it yourself?

 

[emir]

Yes i did it myself. Thank you for the comments, i didn't like the halfshiny paint job so i applied varnish. I'll post the photos when it dried.

 

[emir]

I made the surface shiny and applied the stripe today.

 

[SexTreX]

[Tr0j4nM4x1mus]

Where'd you get the window for your stacker or did you make it yourself?

 

[skadebo]

I love the simplicity of it, it's badass

 

[emir]

Gonna paint the inside?

I was gonna paint it black but i gave up because i don't wanna mass with the dust

Exactly.

Didn't get it from somewhere, It's hand made

I love the simplicity of it, it's badass

Thank you

 

[emir]

WC parts, i'm planing to mount them tomorrow.

I have plans for the reservoir

 

[emir]

I couldn't get a CPU yet so i didn't mount the WC. I worked some with the reservoir.

It'll be like this when the coolant is inside.

 

[JBrinley]

thats awesome, how did you get those letters on there?

 

[emir]

Glue

I'll be out of town, so i'll do the rest of the job when i turn back.

 

[emir]

My small Vantec Nexus;

 

[TheH]

Looks absolutely beautiful

 

[emir]

Thanks TheH

My good old Silverstone PSU;

 

[TheH]

Did you spray it?

 

[emir]

No, it's dc-fix (don't know in English)

 

[prodigee]

do you mean vinyl or an sticky backed thing

 

[emir]

Yes, yes i meant that, thanks for translating

Two more touches and the case will be finished mostly. A small sneak peak

 

[prodigee]

That is sweet dude nice job

 

[best [486]]

Tt CPU block

Get something else, unless you are going with 1/4 inch tubing, it will kill your flow, and doesn't have much surface area.

EDIT: I guess you already got it, picture must have not loaded before, wow!, you replaced the barbs with pretty much the same ones as I ended up using!

 

[emir]

Yes best [486], i already got it and i'm pretty happy with the tempretures. Tt block works surprisingly fine

 

[best [486]]

Yeah, it did for me too, until I saw what people were getting with swiftech storms, which were the same price when I got the thermaltake block, also they said that it was able to use 1/2" tubing, they didn't say hou small the threads on the top were, so I drilled and tapped them out to 3/8 NPT.

By the way, nice mod!

 

[emir]

Thank you.
