Great case!!

Got the case from CEX. Advise : Just buy online and collect there. Best solution.
Here's the case, Corsair 800D. My first time buying Corsair.
I was suppose to get XSPC H2 because it is all screwed.
And I tend to hate Corsair because everyone I meet say that Corsair is good.
Here's some shots on the case overall. Pictures continue on the next post due to Lowyat's IMG limit per post.
WARNING : High-Resolution Picture.

More pictures.

yummy. i always love corsair product, the quality is great

I started taking apart the case.
The amount of rivets in this case is just ridiculous.
I took out the motherboard tray and the mid panel+hotswap bays and the bottom (plus hdd cage)
The war I went with the bottom HDD cage was like world war 3.
I can't take out the 5.25 bays because rivet is like countersunk.
And the damage done to the case while taking out rivets and my floor is unspeakable.

More pictures.

If no one is going to reply, I can't update. Well then, I can conclude that the build is dead.

so sad to hear that...

btw just upload more picture for finished build..i guess people will reply after that

The bottom is removed and I can't seem to remove the rivet for the top
is in a way 'countersunk' so I don't have any drill. So I need to cut with the whole body.
Here's some quick shots and the amount of rivet/screws I took out

You can break down the whole casing with just a drill and a screw driver. Why would you stop a project because nobody is interested in it? It's your own project anyway

That's the problem. I CANT AFFORD IT. Unless someone can buy me a crappy drill, i don't mind. I am still doing the project, I just haven't update it because I can't upload new pictures wihtout someone replying it because of lowyat's picture limit.

Bro, ur doing fine. Keep up the good work. Along the way, people would reply based on them pic u upload.

Tip on using the dremel. Be patient with it. Let the disc work it's own way through. Use a lower speed for better control.

Not so sure about the model you've got, but I use mine on the lowest speed rating.

It's not a really big update. This picture was from the night I bought the fan,
I wanted to test fit my 480 modded cutout. It worked properly
I already ordered a new reservoir and the 480 grill. More update will come.
I will assure you won't be disappointed.
Here's a few picture of the test fit and my awesome photography

nice mod, but how are you going to control the dust without filter?

Now some real progress. Got first of four radiator.
My 240mm Radiator for the bottom of the 800D.
I also got a new table for all my mod work.
I say it once and I will say it again.
I will not disappoint.
Plus I got new tubing.
My current tubing on my RV03 will be on a new project.
Stay tune. More to come.

i dont know much about modding but i can see your effort in it. keep it alive man

This is a semi-update since I'm just showing what it looks like when fans and radiator meet.
Enjoy the pictures.
Nothing much to say but to stay tune.

where u bought that F12 fans?

Cex. I just lived like a minute drive from them.

Got some spare compression fittings for my extra rads. This is the most closest shot I can get. One of the pic which I took very closely can't focus and just end up blurry. Sorry for the small update. But hold on because my FedEX shipping is coming on the 28th. Let's just say a virus is coming to Malaysia. Plus I ordered new mod tools. I'm gonna use it on this project and a new project. Many to come. Just wait please.

Just love them shiny fittings..keep on posting more pic bro. Really interested to see the outcome.

Now this is a real update.I got packages for my radiator and my package all the way from Florida.
The grill was the most pain staking thing to do. And here comes the virus, T-Virus that is. I still have package for cathodes and extra tubing because I think is not enough. Enjoy the beauty of the t-virus. I waited 3 weeks for this. And thanks to anyone who is still following my thread. The radiator with the grill really look good together IMO

looking good there mate..will be looking forward your progress

I did some tubing and installed ALL my radiator.
I know that 4 radiator is overkill but hey, I do this just because I want it to be overkill.
More things like cathodes, more fittings and maybe a new pump is coming plus sleeved cables are coming (i'm lazy, ok?)
Thanks for the support of my project. Again, words can't describe how happy I am feeling knowing that someone is following my project.

Bro, nice mod. looks like u manage to mount the 240 rad at the bottom. But, myb u should reconsider where u mount that single rad at the middle.

keep it up man! can't wait to see the final outcome

My inverter and ccfl came. But I encounter more problems than I'm use to. When I got the 8 port inverter, I don't have 2 pin to power it and the 2 pin in the small inverter that can connected to the ccfl doesn't work. Then my ccfl's inverter got shortcircuit and it was smoking, and the resistor got fried and my capacitor got blacked so in plain english, I fried the inverter. A new small inverter is coming. I still don't know what to do with my 8 port inverter. Any suggestion how to power it? Plus, I got a image for the t virus powered on.

try this youtube site. myb it'll help. i also had similar experience. i did everything right with my cold cathodes wiring, but unfortunately it burned. damn. so..try the site, hopefully it helps
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=682RR-s-maU

I broke my t virus cathode so t virus will look ugly now.
sorry guys, hope you will still read it.
Plus I broke one of acrylic holder for my t-virus.
Talk about my bad luck.
On to good news, I have extra tubing because it's not enough at first.
And I got my feser dye.
Really wanted to go mayhem but mayhem too expensive..
Feser is ok, I'm using it in my current build.
I don't fully trust brands I don't usually know that well.

Added on December 12, 2012, 6:07 pmI always get shocked if I put my hand near the switch and I can smell burn plastic on my 8 port inverter. it works now because I have a 2 pin from logisys cathode that I bought from clawhammer (Alvin).
It's weird because only that inverter work and the 3 other doesn't work.

This post has been edited by JakeGFX: Dec 12 2012, 06:07 PM

bro, i think u should calm down..chill a bit and try to do things one by one. no offense bro...but how did u manage to brake some of the things that u bought? even the cold cathode inside the t-virus..man

This updates was actually posted in other websites earlier than here so if there is a reply in lowyat to catch up with the other websites, I'm late and manage to update the log in lowyat here because during update 3 or 4 in this thread, no one wanted to reply so I can't post because lowyat has a picture limit for each post. Another update inbound.

Added on December 12, 2012, 6:42 pm

I got some picture with just UV Cathode.
My advise, go for LED.
Cathode is a pain in the ass.
I fried on inverter and I keep getting shocked by another.
But I chose cathode because the light distribution looks better.
And oh snap, I got a second pump. Is not overkill unless you get 2nd pump.
I'm doing just for you guys.
Let's see what's this baby going to do.
One more piece is left for this build which is the ram.
Stay tune.

bro, hows ur mod going? any progress so far

This will be the last update that is not posted. So it's already up to date with the rest of other sites.

_______________________________________________________________________________________




Since I'm still waiting for my savings to increase.
Here's some pictures of random stuff of the rig
I assemble back the mechanism for the side door.
It was a pain in the ass I tell you.
Anything with a spring will be a douche to you.

loved your T-virus tube. looks awesome!

let's just hope it finishes, there was suppose to be an update but a fcking leakage pissed me off till I have no mood to refill it or check the problem again.

I blame ek radiator for this, fcking piss of shit.

lol whats wrong with ek rad lor?

turns out it was the fcking ek rad. it was leaking.
Make me wash my floor 3 times. I thought it was the compression fitting not screw properly but never felt water on it.

i see..
may i know what screw do u used to attach the fan on ur rad?
n where the leak came from(rad area)

This post has been edited by [Krauser]: Dec 20 2012, 01:22 AM

it was the screw that came with the ek. the leak came from the corner of the place where the water was stored in the rad. Pictures will be uploaded soon.

Bro..sometimes gotta be carefull with radiator's screws.. coz if u screw it a tad too tight, it could be long enough to punch a hole to the rad and that could also cause leakage..

Anyway, its a good thing that u realize the leaks b4 too late
Bro..steady..hopefully u could finish ur build as u wanted it to be

you'll not see any update till next year. I'm current on holiday in Iceland.

TEASER!!
Big Update Coming.

Here's a picture of the leaking EK, the teaser above is not related to this.
I can't get a refund because I damage the grill so yeah, DON'T CHOOSE EK radiator, you can pick their cpu and gpu wb but just don't go with their radiator.

That major leak...

I think that is a lil too negative isn't it for telling everyone to not choose EK rads just because you can't get your refund. I'm sure you'd notice the caution reminder since you took a pic of it. Other brands will not do any replacement under RMA too if the damage is caused by users.

However, if the damage wasn't caused by you, thats a whole different story I guess.

On a side note, that res looks kewl

I still love EK wb, I just don't want other people to suffer the same fate. the leaking was not damage by me. only the rad grill damage.

It's a big big update. My motherboard has arrived.
It's a killer. Here's some picture to enjoy that pure intel POWAHHH!!

Damn insane you !! i Need More More Picss !!

More pictures. (accessary mostly.)
BLUE SLI!!
And lastly, Intel, you suck at color coordination -.-

I'm in the airport, going back to Malaysia. In London now, So I'll post this small update. It's just accessories like fan connectors. My RAM update is tomorrow in like 13 hrs because that's how long my flight is.

Someone stole my ram!
OH MAH GEWD

ur ram reaaly stolen?

Mind explaining how it got stolen?

Damn! seriously bro..got stolen? They even have the time to open the heatsink..

is possible to invert the 800D motherboard tray permanently?

why they didn't stole the ram one shot with the heatsink

you need to mod it. since screw stand is stuck on to the tray already.

bro, how's progress..any new pic to show?

soo.. it's mean it's possible to do it thank you btw nice mod

I have mouth ulcer so i cant swallow anyting including saliva. I have been staying in bed with no mood to update. I have pictures ready. Just lazy to post them

Ram is here.
It looks damn good IMO.
And the bitspower flow indicator (I don't think I'm gonna use because of no space.)

Dayyum broo...nice items. i didnt know Bitspower have ram heatsinks for waterblock. That ram heatsink, does it compatible for any type of ram?

ram heatsink is universal IINM...so far I saw only APES selling this rare item..

Here's some shot of Bitspower CPU Summit EF.
It's a beast and it's unusual for me because I didn't knew Bitspower have a cpu block because it's not famous. And my gpu (GTX680). The waterblock was installed like 5 months ago from my last build. So yeah. enjoy the wb and the gpu.
