Sponsor update

I also want to welcome a great sponsor for this build .... Highflow
Given the great choice of products, I have choosen some nice stuff.

DSC07843.jpg

Always nice to a Highflow package, Thank you Freddy!!!

First two beautifull reservoirs. The EK-Multioption RES X2 - 250 Advanced

DSC07846.jpg

Also a small 80MM NorthQ 3709RL Silent Tornado

And last 2x Acryl Paneel - UV Rood / Transparant - 500x500mm

Once everything unpacked, it's modding time. Cut a piece of red acrylic and cut a hole in it for a tube

DSC07932.jpg

In the black acrylic I have cut 2 holes with the size of the reservoirs cut to keep them in place

DSC07934.jpg

DSC07931.jpg

And cut a little piece for a fillport

Keep an eye on the Tygon 3603 tubing. Had a bit of quick yellow clouding in mine after only a week or two.

Changed some ideas about the tubing wink.gif

So after some thinking and some urging of fellow modders I decided to do everything straight. It's more work ... but I'm in no hurry;)

DSC07984.jpg

DSC07985.jpg

DSC07987.jpg

Also a nice idea I have seen in another build is the tilted mobo. Made the back plate again with 2mm aluminum, and marked the shape of the backtray

DSC07975.jpg

Sawing, drilling and Filing

DSC07976.jpg

Placed the original mobo tray, pasted black vinyl again to get it black. Maybe a bit lazy but this is so easy, quick, scratch resistant, inexpensive and just the right color.

The tilted mobo

DSC07988.jpg

DSC07992.jpg

DSC07993.jpg

DSC08000.jpg

DSC08003.jpg

DSC08004.jpg

DSC08006.jpg

DSC08008.jpg

DSC08013.jpg

Missing something ... red I think. therefore entirely dismantled the backplate and cut a red plate

DSC08041.jpg

DSC08042.jpg

DSC08043.jpg

And everything reassembled, this time with countersunk m3 bolts. Rivets are unfortunately too short now

DSC08044.jpg

DSC08045.jpg

Nice touch... inside is red now smile.gif

DSC08047.jpg

And placed it. Now with some daylight pics

DSC08049.jpg

DSC08052.jpg

Placed NorthQ fans in front instead of the Turbine masters

DSC08026.jpg

And received some nice red hardware

DSC08030.jpg

An made an additional air outlet​​. Will place mesh later.

DSC08055.jpg

Furthermore beeing busy with the acrylic pipe, to get this as straight as possible. Just like the other side, cut a piece of aluminum with fanhole

DSC08054.jpg

Made it black and cut and placed a piece of red acrylic. Placed a loose tube for size and see if it's straight

DSC08056.jpg

DSC08062.jpg

And fits nicely along the mobo tray

DSC08067.jpg

And the weekend is over ... unfortunately. More Next week wink.gif

Oh My God dude, you are amazing, that is one of the sweetest looking backpanels I've ever seen, the tilted motherboard is genius!

How many hours got into making this update, if I may ask and if you have any idea.

424

You say "now with daytime shots", where are the "nighttime" pics, because I would love to see those!

doe zo voort! biggrin.gif
