This build is in honor of the fight of the Ukrainian People for Freedom and Democracy from the Russian Oppression. My wife is from Ukraine and I have spent an extensive amount of time there for work and pleasure. So I do have a vested interest in this subject.

[DarthBaggins]

[Bart]

Subbed too, of course! Go Scott go!

 

[Kriant]

Oh Jolly Good, now we have political statements being dropped on a tech forum.

 

[seross69]

Well here is the memory I will be using!!







This is the original memory that was going to be used in Excessive Insanity!!! It is G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 64GB 2400 MHz and thru 3 motherboards 2 RIVE and this RVBE I have n\never had any problem hitting 2400Mhz with the 64GB.. So it is real good memory and Actually I was able to get the timings tighter on it one time but they are back to the XMP profile.. Will play with this some I am sure!!






This is the memory with the heat Spreaders on it. If anyone wants to see how to do this I can post detailed pictures on removing the stock heat spreaders and installing the EK spreaders. Just let me know and I will post this???

 

[seross69]

I have forgotten can anyone remind me or tell me how to add things to my post like links to builds!

 

[wermad]

Your signature? just edit your sig under your user settings, type your build log name, highlight and click on url link icon, and paste your addy. You can center it and add emojis as well. pretty much how you would create a post with a linked log embedded in the text.

I thought I would leave it tonight with some pictures of my leak testing and Component testing, this is on my test bench!!

So what do you think of the tubing and bending?? I know it is not perfect but think it looks pretty good!!

 

[wermad]

Looks good, just this one looks like its being pushed back a bit too much. Do you have a bit of wiggle room to shave off a bit from the tube's end and line it up a tad more towards the left? I know that with some bends, you have no more room otherwise, you can't install it properly. just bringing it up to avoid a possible leak.



edit: if you're going with reverse atx, iirc, I believe you can rotate the ek port end pieces 180 so the logo is sitting upwards. I would just double check w/ the EK club.

thanks for this I had not really noticed the one that was off some until you pointed it out and I can take some off of this to make it look better and prevent leaks..

Also I know you can reverse the Port end pieces as I did this on the 750!!

[seross69]

Well here is the PSU I am going to be using in this build, it is a older one but I really like it!!
























The EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 1500 Classified

 

[seross69]

Here is a the custom PSU cables I have made. I have the 24 pin, CPU connector and 2 GPU's made. I have not put them in the connector yet because I want to wait till I get the case to see how to do the cable combs or maybe even sew them!!!







if you like them give me a PM and I can do you a set in what ever colors you want!!!

or if anyone wants to see I have pictures of how I cut everything to the proper length!!
