Yes thats right! Another lutro0 mod. This was a rush mod with a short deadline which I have already missed - but thats ok. It just means that I can take my time and do it right.
_.-( Sponsors )-._
A special thanks goes out to the following sponsors for making the project possible!
_.-( Personal Introduction )-._
As many of you know my name is Lutro0, most know me for my sleeving guides (http://www.youtube.com/user/lutro0) and for running Lutro0 Customs. (https://www.facebook.com/Lutro0Customs).
My mentality has always been to help as many people with sleeving and modding as I can because I learned everything I know about modding because people took the time to create detailed logs of their work. I run my logs all the same, they are meant to be learning materials for upcoming modders. I try to share every single bit of info I can and I will always answer your questions when I see them.
I am very honored to call OCN my home forum and I spend allot of my time donating my time in the cable and sleeving sub forums with my guides and FAQ. As well as answering as many questions as I can. I am also a team captain for the team comp for [email protected] on OCN. I have been hugely involved in folding for a while now and will continue to be as long as I have a computer.
All in all, I do my best with what I have and I try my best to leave no detail unnoticed no matter how small it is.

This mod was commissioned by NZXT initially. They wanted a mod done with an unreleased case, so before I even accepted the challenge I had no idea what the case looked like what so ever. NZXT also sponsored a ton of fans, cooling, and other goodies.
MSI was the next sponsor to jump on board to make this possible. They were gracious enough to send me a MPower Max Motherboard and two 760 Hawk GPUs. Without them this mod would not have been possible.
Kingston was also enthusiastic about helping. They sent the HyperX Beast Ram 32GB and HyperX 120GB SSDs that I will be using in this Mod.
Cooler Master pitched in a CPU cooler (A v6 SE) and a CM Storm keyboard and mouse. Sadly the CPU cooler did not fit for its purpose so I am not able to use it. But I am ever grateful for their support.
My buddy Ron Lee Christianson of Blue Horse Studios donated his time and tallent with the airbrush to paint my side panels. He did a amazing job on a super quick turn around.
_.-( Project Name )-._
The name of this project follows my typical Greek naming style. This time the name is Elektron which simply means Electricity.
_.-( Concept )-._
The concept for this build is a simple one. Since I had no idea what the case looked like I had no plan until I got it. But once I did I knew I wanted to do a clean mod with a motherboard tray, great cable routing, lots of dremeling, a ton of fabrication including a new front panel - modding a all in one cooling system into the front, and finally sleeving that keeps the whole theme together.
