The Intelligence - Day 48.4 - mini update - assembly continues
After having mounted the psu, I realized I needed to remove it to mount the latches. Thats it removed, then I mounted the latches
latches and psu re-installed
handle could be mounted now that the 8-32 x 3/8 arrived today
muhar
started managing the wires...
the left side is definite usage, the middle is still unknown, and you can see on the right 4 cables going under the mobo pan, those are all uneeded so far. Once I know what will still be needed and what wont, and can hide away the remaining ones that wont be used
detaped the fans, ran into a bit of an over spray issue, especially on the 2 intakes
thats them
not as bad on the 4 exhausts.
normally crap like this would upset me, but I thought about it for a few mins and was like w/e
They will be spining and lit up so who minds a bit of overspray
lol
cut the strip of rubber gasket material to replace the old one. you can see that shiny area in the L corner of the case there, it sits in that groove all the way around the lid. Had a glue issue so I decided to hold off gluing
I also held off installing the fans since I encountered a win situation. Originally I was using 6-32 black oxide allen caps for all the fans (with matching round socket thingies instead of nuts, on the inside) well, originally (more originally) I cut the screw holes for standard fan screws, then switched the idea to use the 6-32 stuff. The heads of the 6-32's werent to my liking, since the holes could have been smaller for that type of screw. Anyway to make a long story short, I tested one of the 8-32 black oxides I just got today, which have wider diameter heads and they looked amazing, no chance of seeing slight gaps even when the screw isnt centered. So I decided to use 8-32 instead and go with the better look... only problem?... no matching round cap things in-house. Need to order from mcmaster and have them here by friday. Thats why I left the fans unmounted. Hope that made sense, im tired
more soon
thanks for watching
