Default [Project]: Arctic Night

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. Anyways, onwards in mining the North Pole!

Installing a fan to provide top radiator with fresh air. Nothing says cool like an untainted breeze. I swear...heat is like pollution for computer parts.


Get in my belly! Officially starting to build up computer, now that heavy modding is done.


Sidelined my microreservoir for this baby and yes, its the Revision 2.

Thats it for now...more coming tonight!

Oooh, very nice.

I really like the res placement. Once you get those cables tucked away, it'll be a major focus of attention and I have a feeling it will look really cool!

Looks very nice, just make sure you cable manage that and it will be one of the best looking cases I have ever seen.

Prepping case for swimming lessons!


Man...if my computer was a person, it would be dead 0 seconds flat! Look at all them bubbles!


Preliminary UV scan, meaning no extra dye added, just the UV already in the Petosin blue. Pretty impressive!


A couple drops of some DTek UV dye and I almost went blind. Man that stuff is awesome!







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!
