Wokey, gotta jot down in da shopping list when I'm visiting LYP and S. Wang Plaza next time

BTW, I got 2 tubes of CCFL UV placed inside my rig with the position same as your Tsunami case. But it's not enough to light my up UV board... is there anything I can do? Adding extra tubes I dun think it will give a lot of help since the light like a bit dim...

Adding extra tubes will help, especially at the top (stick it to the bar). Make sure your tube is from Sunbeam.

mine

haha...added lil stickers at the side..

Yeah, I bought the pair from Sunbeam... but how to stick to the bar? The tube is longer or perhaps actually got shorter one?

P/S: BTW, why must be from Sunbeam?

cause sunbeam is bright...and last much longer than others

There are shorter version of UV CCFL (look at sidewinders pic) but I think the price is about the same with the longer one.

Oh... icic... so lucky I got the right one

Neway, you all normally let it ON all the time or only switched it ON at nite?

hehe...i only let it on when i feel like only...its not on constantly...only if i wanna show off..

cause i tried letting it on 24 hours and after 3 days, my inverter burned....haiz

sidewinderz rigs looks complicated when the UV off.....but after the UV on looks nice and cool....
haha....if u buy the longer sunbeam then cut it into two pieces.... then it become lightning.....

Oh... I let it ON constant now but I didnt let my rig run 24 hours *kids at home, u dunno when they'll surprise u by anything *...

Then there's any chance to get the inverter only or need to buy a whole set?

Also as mentioned by kianwee, where to get the shorter version of CCFL UV like yours or perhaps there's other model as well?

haha...thx...havent really seen your rig though...

erm...cut the tubes into 2?? hehe..have yet to try it..i got a broken CCFL in my drawer...any1 wanna try it??

ps: i would not be held responsible if damage is done...

you can get the inverter from uglyvamp..he is selling it...pm him if you need it more in detail...

@kianwee
planning to put CF sticker on your casing?? cause looks kinda plain in the front...your casing is much more well maintain than mine...jealous....:

I did put some CF film earlier in the year, but I took it out now, cause I love to touch the aluminium because it is freaking cold in aircond room.

About the maintenance, I wash the filter once a week, and try not to touch the side arcylic, it get scratched very easily. I use a lint-free cloth to lightly clean it if there is fingerprints. Never wash the acrylic with water, or wipe it with newpaper, i've learnt my lesson.
The tsunami is really hard to maintain compared to shark. Shark doesn't have the mirror finish that is a fingerprint magnet.

Cut the CCFL tube into 2? Can do so? *first time heard *

Oh... thankx for da detail... neway, uglyvamp got sell that fan with uv light, wondering if it'll light up even better?

Haha... war between sidewinderz and kianwee

lolz...same here...but my casing has been to the repair shop once...and when it came back, i lost 1 of those green color stuff to secure the pci slots...and not only that, my casing's side paint also came off...sheesh...not a lot..but a lil..that is why i plan to put carbon fibre stuff all over it...

but i heard that using PlastX can remove scratches from the side panel...why not haf a go at it? available at Eonos at 1U or Ace hardware at Mid Valley...priced at RM35 each..have yet to get it due to short of funding...sigh


hehe....no war la...just jealous of his beautiful hardcore rig...hehe...your rig also not bad wat....not so messy like mine...

Eh... got such thing such as PlastX to remove scratches? ... After tried remember to let us know the outcome, k?

Haha... my rig way too far compared with both of u...

I've already sold my scratched tsunami and bought a new one.

I will keep in mind about the PlastX, I've been looking for that for quite some time now.

@sidewinderz
just change PSU only.....where got so much money????
my next spot is tsunami dream casing...and then just start modding it....maybe my job will be ended by the end of this year......the main factor is money only....u lend me??hehez

guys...just bought this 2 weeks ago...
i need ur comments bout the 'mod' for this casing...



Attached thumbnail(s)

Not much mod can be done on a pre-modded casing i guess ?

Maybe doing a top panel window ?

adding blowholes on the arcylic ?

hehe...dun la say like that... it took me months before i get it to be like that... still quite noob in all this cable management thingy


wow....you went to such an extent to get rid of all the scratches eh...for me, no money to buy new tsunami dream casing....kianwee, you very rich ya?? always see you upgrade things only...hehe..

haha....pinjam?? can la of course...i charge interest very high 1 wor..you sure you want ar??
take it slow and easy....sooner or later, you'll surely finish it...that time, i'm sure it will be nicer than both mine and kianwee's 1...all the best!!

haha....casing is pretty nice...need some cable management though...you can see your casing cluttered with wires...
