Update for the fittings..

Bitspower Multi-Link Adapter - Silver Shining (BP-WTP-C47) x 24 units ~~~~~~~~ only 14 used[/size]
Bitspower G1/4 Thread 90-Degree Dual Rotary Adapter - Silver (BP-90R2) x 5 units

So guys I really hope you all will give me your support..Hope it all went well...

Don't know where to start..haha

Tracing the radiator size onto a cardboard to marking the screw holes..don't really know why I did that..



Stripping down the case..



Pull out the front panel..I won't need it anymore..so anyone out there looking for prodigy front panel can PM me..

Put all the masking tape on the front panel and top panel of the case..



I trace the line up to the end nearly 10mm from each side of the front panel..and for the top panel is around 15mm from each corner of the panel..all the curve are traced using old 50cent coin..



This is my weapon of war..I think it save more time compare when using dramel..but the vibration is like hell..



Due to the noise produced by the jig saw I only manage to cut the top panel only..haha

The top panel suppose to use 2mm thickness aluminium plate (based on Singularity Build)..but here in Kota Kinabalu, I just don't know where I could get it in just a small amount..all the shop I go offer me like 4 to 8 feet long plate..too big..

So I decided to change it with 3mm thickness of acrylic sheet..



Tested and it fit the upper handle nicely..but the edge of the acrylic need to be sanded and polish a bit..

nice, will follow this for sure i love singularity computers, and if i remember corectly, i think he's done more than 1 prodigy build. which 1 in particular are you following?

Thanks bro..

Client Build 9

Hi..

Just a little update..I trace the screw hole and radiator hole from the original top mount of the prodigy..main agak2 jer.. and then cut the acrylic..



The two fan holes traced using 1pc of blank CD..don't know how to do actually..just gamble and cut..

The edge need to be sanded to smoothed the rough edges..



Test fit with the radiator..it fit well..notice that the radiator is mounted toward the edge of the back panel..this is to give way for the front mounted radiator..For the top radiator I use my HardwareLabs Black Ice® GT Xtreme 240 radiator and HardwareLabs Black Ice© GT Stealth 240 will be mounted to the front panel..





Hopefully it will give enough clearance for the front radiator..since in the Singularity's Build, he used both front and top are the same radiator (HardwareLabs Black Ice© GT Stealth 240), I don't really know the measurement..but I guess it will fit..otherwise I need to opt for the slim fan..

Subbing this one bro! when it's done I'll get it featured in the BitFenix Malaysia FB Page and hopefully the BitFenix HQ page as well

Thanks bro..hopefully I won't have to face too much trouble like my previous project..

Hi...

This evening I trace both of side panel..



Then at night just finish sanded the edge of the windows..



Maybe tomorrow evening I'll continue with the cutting of front panel..



What to do man..I'm leaving in a quarters so my neighbor can't tolerate the noise..

Hi...just a quick update..just finish cutting the front panel..



Now awaiting the acrylic panel that I bought from shepard...the front panel is cut towards 10mm from every corner and I will drill 4 x 6mm holes for the front panel..



I order 2 sizes of the transparent black acrylic, 10mm thickness and 8mm thickness..only one will be mounted as the front panel..

I also waiting for the GPU to be delivered..hopefully by tomorrow I'll receive it..

Now the biggest challenge so far is to get all the fittings and watercooling part for this build..

H guys..hmmm more update..sorry kind of busy..

I receive this red monster yesterday..after long waiting time finally I manage to get one..thanks naz21st



I also start to cut the side panel..



Both side panel cut and fit to the panel nicely..I'm using 3mm thickness clear acrylic sheet..





In Singularity Build 9, he use the 3mm acrylic sheet to cover the radiator holes both on top and front panel..but I haven't decide yet..for mean the time I use this 120mm fan grill..

Hmmm..I'm still waiting for the front panel to be delivered.. but anyway I think its already on the way..must take a while from Penang to Kota Kinabalu.. Thanks shepard

While waiting for the front panel.. something came in my mind.. why don't I start assemble all the other parts first..

SO..I start assemble the GPU and motherboard waterblock..since both of it already in my possession..already had the waterblock since April..



Fisrt let I'm installing the motherboad waterblock first..



The backplate for it..





Put some thermal paste..but I don't use the one supllied by EK..I'm using my Arctic Silver 5..don't know which one better..but I go for arctic silver 5..



If you all notice that this waterblock will cover the processor and the southbridge chip..so the stock heatshink need to be removed..the one in the picture I don't what it is called..haha I think its power phase..



It is quite tough to install it..maybe because I don't any experience of it before..to cut the thermal pad is too much hassle for me..why don't EK just supply a precut thermal pad..

My original plan was to get the bitspower waterblock..but always no stock..so I go all out for EK..hence all the other watercooling part for this build are from EK..



So this is the finish assembly..The stop fittings just to avoid dust from entering the waterblock..

Hmmm..thought you'll receive the acrylic panel today but seems like it takes more than a day to arrive, should reach you on Monday. Well i'm following your thread bro...nice build indeed

Yeah..but no worry bro..nothing to catch up..BTW something quite strange here..did you get my address correctly..or something wrong with the poslaju..I tracked down the item but it seem like it has landed at Sibu..I'm at Kota Knabalu..Could you check it..thanks bro..

Hi..salam Ramadhan to all my fellow Muslim..and good morning..

Just a little continuation for the waterblock assembly..haha just came back from cinema..hell yeah transformers..

Ok..next we go to the installation of the GPU waterblock + backplate..



The waterblock is quite heavy..I think I should opt for the plexi type..but its all about money money money..huhhhh..

Here are what it had inside the package..and once again the thermal paste doesn't come precut..





The backplate on the other hand came with precut thermal pad..



Ready to open the stock cooler..



The bare GPU..need to clean the chip from the old thermal paste..



Sorry didn't take enough pictures..the complete assembly..but it is a lot easier compare to assembling the waterblock for motherboard..

another great project from u~ Subbed this ^^ can't wait to see another final outcome of this ^^

Hello..

Just small update..RAM assembly..The RAM for this build originally planned to use G.Skill Trident X 16GB 2400..but unfortunately the stock always unavailable..So I decide to change it Kingston HyperX Beast 16GB 2400..don't really know about its performance..



The waterblock that I used is EK-RAM Monarch X2 which is originally design for dominator class RAM from corsair..so EK-RAM Monarch RAM Module for universal RAM is needed...





The time taken to dismantle the stock heat spreader from the RAM is quite easy..BUT DO NOT USE TOO MUCH FORCE TO IT..MIGHT DAMAGE YOUR RAM..

Even though the thermal pad doesn't come precut..this time it has marking where to cut each (for this RAM it has 16 chip per module)





Now the installation of the waterblock..





That's all for today..huhu..Waiting for the front panel acrylic sheet..maybe will receive it today..
