Updated the pictures

A friend study aboard at UK finally came back to Malaysia, and he's kind enough to deliver this reservoir to me ! 8-)8-)8-)













Sigh, it's really hard to get the seller to reply pm nowadays. one of em didnt reply me after i left a msg more than twice, and this happened a month ago.

may i know about the gpu cover or i believe it is called a back plate or something??
if let's say the back part of the gpu is bare meaning, the pcb is visible, what kind of plate can i diy to make a nice clean back plate? any recommendations or idea sharing? would an aluminium piece be good? or can i use a piece of mirror..any suggestions?

Hi, currently, I myself using aluminium. but i think it is safe to be painted, making sure it's non-conductive, to prevent short circuit, plus aluminium is light, wont place higher amount of load on the gpu itself, prevent straining. as for mirror, i nvr heard of it though, but i think its quite heavy la, if u want mirror finished, u might can look for mirror acrylic. Bt i searched quite some places, and only large supplier carries them.

Photo still cannot see.

okays, thanks for the info =)
well i plan to get the windforce from gigabyte and it's a blue pcb..thinking of placing a black back plate to cover the blue..though the blue can't really be seen during the night lol...

The photos are perfectly fine. this might due to ur internet connection or server problem.


it can be visible ~ more or less, covering it will of course, achieve non-compromise looks

Anyway, some pictures of the ram i bought yday







Hope you guys like it

Its the Platinum Edition right.?
must be damn expensive...

Wow..u must have a good budget for this

with that speed can get at RM3xx only..for 1600Mhz above is damn expensive

This should cost rm350-rm400 .

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think its possible, since there are some small hex screw in sight.

It's around 360.

that ram..must be premium for 4gbx2..

nice res u have there

..why not take the frozenq res?

the only thing frozenq res has is an internal tube within the res, and personally (no offense) i don't like it.

While waiting for the paint of GPU I/O bracket to dry, I disassembled the GPU block for some cleaning . I was worried bout

staining and corrosion due to colored coolant, as I've seen major stain occur with the use of EK blood red coolant.

Fortunately, no stain were found :thumbsup:, jz some minor fouling :foot:. Let's have the photo do the

talking shall we ? =)



Fouling effect of blood red particles !





Cleaned up 8-)



Cleaned up both



Fixed the acetal back to where it belongs, pop a beer to celebrate the end of cleaning progess

As for the custom GPU bracket, I'm still thinking whether to use it or not :think: as the result is not what i had expected. maybe i

should modify it a little more.

care to share with me the dimension of the gpu plate dun feel like pulling it out assuming u're using the 560ti hehehe
I have some alu to wreck ...and some white acylic *if u interested I can send some of the white acrylic 2mm I got plenty

As for mounting it ...I think you could use plastic spacer and a longer screw . If u found the perfect spacer and screw I want some hahaha

another way ...is to use high temp double tape .. stick it on some clear part on the back of the gc ..the bad thing is ... scared the adhesion from the tape are too strong ..maybe can put some automotive sticker then double tape ...the oracal 651 sticker can go up to 78C ..I have tons if u wan to try hahaha ..I dun think the gc would shoot up to 70C with wb since I get 69 on stock cooler while folding.

glad to see the block clean and shiny now I dun have to worry much hahaha

Cheers
