@TS,

nicely painted Raven, which paint you used?
how about the interior lighting part? using white LED??

rgds

bro.....ur painting is awesome...
1st time see the white raven...
nice work there...
pls post some pic of the interior after u install all the component...hehe

Bro, what's d black panel there? Why not leave the black fin as it is, more striking.. & Do U mod d glass to make it bigger?

Nice setup..1 step ahead of me. My board fried. Waiting for RMA....

Later we open a new group eh, color raven...like flashman.

bro, u wan fully intergrate ur PA 120.3 into the casing... ?

y dun wan use the mountings provided and mount the radiator hanging at the back of the case ?

looking f/w to full internal wc on raven ... if idea is great, casing will be shortlisted for my future built...

Im using ANCHOR brand, code 2 White K126

interior, alrdy buy this Logisys 12" Dual Cold Cathode Kit. still dont know where to put it ~under construction~

hehe.. thanks


whice black panel? .. switch?.. i still plan to make it diff .. if leave the fin black (the plastic side panel right?), it will be more black than white, i would like it to be balance or more white

the acrylic, either i just leave it like that, or mod to draw logo.. if look bigger (cut side panel) it will look weird .. too show off

im also delay off la bro.. coz on my morning shift, so will not in mod job.. need to wait on my offday, or nite shift (so by day, can slowly do mod) im working 12hour (7am/pm-7pm/am)

raven user here...so tempting when see ur work!!!

so nais...

arghhH!!! cant wait for update...go bro!!..

seriously nice mod!!

currently im want to hv dual psu.. n still on mod that 2nd psu.. my plan is to

1st psu st da770w to pwr up mobo/proc n gc only..
2nd psu thermaltake 430w, to pwr up hdisk, dvdrom/writer, pump n other..

im doing dual psu is coz, when single psu (750w) got buzzing sound when plying GRID.. maybe my 4870x2 need more ampere

will update it later..

750w still not enuf

the electric bills of yours must be high

i think bcos ur stressing d PSU dat's y la .
bad batch of PSU ?

dual panel ?!
lookin forward ur job,bro

not sure it enough or not.. but the sound it really annoying, so better try to hv dual psu n i hv plan to put 6pcs hdisk..


never stress my psu.. but alrdy serve me well for nearly 2year change a a lot of rig.. but this psu still with me

not dual panel bro.. but dual psu.. btw just saw ur sleeving skill (u sleeving ur sata cable)



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

since my digicam is back.. so i will upload the sleeving n the secondary psu.. n might be a guide to do sleeving..


the psu i buy.. if 1st owner see it.. it alrdy been operate haha..





the cable n switch..



where i plan to ut this 2nd psu.. near the hdisk bay.. n dvdrom/writer..

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sleeving ...

here the 8pin sleeve that i hv alrdy made..



how it will be look like..



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

how i do the sleeving...



tool

i hv alrdy tape the atx pin with tape, this is to avoid cable stuck inside sleeve..



i shrink the 1st heatshrink at the end of sleeve, using lighter (dont burn it direct, but just move2 only).. !! dont touch the heatshrink when it still hot.. coz u will make ur fingerprint on it.

*do use a sharp 'gunting' to cut ur sleeve, n burn a bit at the end (both end) after u cut the sleeve.. !!do measure ur sleeve wise b4 cut it.. if not, it will be too short or too long..

**how the measure- do hold the edge of cable side by side with ur sleeve, then pull the sleeve with cable !!this will give u nearly accurate length for the sleeve.. u really need to pull (tarik) it.. coz need it to hold tight to ur cable when u do this sleeving..



i put the 2nd heatshirnk.. n burn it..




how it look with both side been shrink..

---

Added on August 18, 2009, 10:19 pmmy other fitting is on the way.. so by next update might be doing wc n pwr up 2nd psu (just for testing wc).. hehe..

the sleeving, on long delay for it.. so i will use ori da750 cable temporary.. coz need to use the balance to sleeve my 2nd psu..

This post has been edited by sopen2003: Aug 18 2009, 10:19 PM

my sleeving skill is worse than u :sweat

hehe.. not naked lor.. it will be mod, n i will fix a cover for it.. plan to hv intake fan in front of it..

skill can be improve bro.. practice it.. btw, i will do a sata sleeve also, but will be a long delay for it.. coz awaiting the sleeve

This post has been edited by sopen2003: Aug 19 2009, 03:10 AM

all ur stuff also high end 1,raven ,wc ,muder sleeve
i just usin ayam brand

This post has been edited by lun1986: Aug 18 2009, 10:36 PM

practice with ayam brand 1st bro.. if not u will burn ur money by noting..

sleeving is hard to do.. for my case, it look easy coz im make new connector for it, n new cable for it.. so easy, n not hard work to pull out those cable (if sleeve ori cble)

one trick to shrink the heatshrink is to use the solder pen...
works great.

with lighter i always burn up the sleeve together... but with the solder pen... it can be done in less than 1 minuted
just put the solder pen to the heatshrink and it will shrink up...

very nice .
keep up d good work .
looking forward to d final result ^^,

also try to use solder b4, yup it burn/shrink nice compare with lighter.. but it slow (solder not too hot maybe, might be those watt issue).. haha.. n some time if not careful, will melt those sleeve.. .. happen when im using solder pen.. i think by using adjustable (heat) solder, will be fast n nice..


@monsh

thank's bro..

Wahhh! Nice modding skills!

Hi,

Wanna ask, the interior is still black for your RV01 after modded? Curious

i got hard time to do update this week.. a bit bz.. sorry ..

yup.. black.. but in future, im still not sure

but most likely, black


------------------------------------------------------------

some guide for NEW CONNECTOR n MODULAR that i think the best to do sleeve.. do hv some comment on it..



hahah..

we start with what we needed..



the sleeve u need..



cable.. black if possiable..

ok.. we start by cut the sleeve.. *if 24pin, cut it into 24pcs.. length is up to u..



use tape, to tape ur cable..





as u know, im using 2 diff length of heatshirnk..





dont cut ur cable 1st.. heatshrink both end of ur sleeve 1st.. then pull ur sleeve (tight ur sleeve)
how to say it.. haha.. *make sleeve to grip ur cable !! this step is really important to hv good sleeving

after u alrdy feel it enough grip.. cut those cable.. *around 2inc of length from heatshrink end..



use a tape to guide u.. this is for length u needed *if u want it lor..

put ur 2nd heatshrink..



shirnk it from bottom 1st.. then remove that tape..

!!repeat the step for both end..



*since this is only guide.. i just do it roughly.. not same end..



use knife to cut ur cable.. DONT cut the sleeve..



both end been cut, n ready to be solder/clamp to atx pin..
