To those who have PMed me about the CPU block, hold on to your horses. I am going to attempt to bend the capacitors later today

can u take a picture? i want to see, if there anything i can help

y dont u try re solder it sideways? sure is safer than tryin to bent it

ahahahaa...dem...just when i think of having an xt for my loop...XD

until you finish your worklog...

Just a quick update on what I have done.

I have spray painted the case all black. It's quite scratch resistant, but there are still parts of the case where it is still scratchable, like the mirror finish mobo tray.

Steps taken:
1. Sand the surfaces with 1000 grit sand paper.
2. Spray with undercoat. I tried using both type of undercoat: gray and dark chocolate (anti-rust). I suggest you use the gray one. Its easier to apply. As usual, do a few thin layers for best result. 10 minutes interval is best between application.
3. Spray with flat black. Same technique, few thin layers with 10 minutes interval between each application.

A few ideas sprang up when looking at the case, I will let you guys know.

ahahahaha...very lazy la bro...especially now i dunno how to get the flames to look real...thinking of sending it for airbrush...hahahahaha...but dunno where lol...

it's not cheap to send airbrush bro.. lol... i got friend working as airbrusher, but the charges is not cheap...

Good news peeps! Apparently there is clearance for the capacitors, but less than 1mm. Managed to slip through a piece of paper so there's definitely clearance for them

Pictars coming soon!

owh...how much for entire case?

hahahaha...>1mm clearance...phew...goodluck bro...

buy my case after powder coat.. 3000 XD

dunwan...better buy stacker 830...XD

Well done, I'm glad it finally worked Looking forward for some beautiful pictures

I am really sorry if anyone here is expecting my worklog to progress any faster. My full time work; as I have said over and over again every time I need to apologize for my lack of time to do anything else; has taken the best of me.

Here are some pictars!

This is actually a Gainward HD4850 Golden Sample. Shiny core, after cleaned with Arctic Cleaner. I did fit it with MCW60R complete with compression fittings, but forgot to take a pic.


Apogee XT! With compression fittings Just so you know, I am using 775 back plate from my old TRUE120. So yeah, they are compatible with each other. And one more thing, I switched the inlet port to allow use of the compression on one side. It is possible to not switch the inlet port if you use 2 45degrees rotaries (both inlet and outlet port).


The row of capacitors I have been telling you guys. Ridiculous clearance I tell you!


I reached ModernoPC around 7.30pm, I only have enough time to fit the mobo. Notice the flat black mobo tray! Clawhammer, I will sell you the case for RM2000 This seems to be a new version of TJ07, its a little different then the older version.

That's a very shiny Gainward there The XT clearance on the board is excellent without problems and sure, RM2000 for case plus all the water cooling stuffs? Thanks Nik!

RM2k including watercooling parts??? Cannot la bro, die la like this. I spray painted that case alone; Zam was busy the whole day assembling rigs, Adiel was away for the whole day. Can seriously die. It was magical I finished everything in one day. After everything was done, I couldn't even pop a can of Coke!

Bro, u missed out the all time champion, the San Aces...

very nice work, but you forgot to take the picture of the gc with MCW60-R... lol... anyway what's your ram heatsink used for the gainward?
