If so when can I buy one and how much?:D

As 64Dragon say's, the motherboard tray is not symmetrical in relation to the backplate. There will be murderMod backplates available for both ATX and inverted ATX orientations - for those of you that swing the other way. ;)

Our goal is to have the website up and running and be ready to take orders by July 21st - hopefully. No price yet since it's still only virtual. :)

Is there a particular question regarding sleeving SATA cables or do you need it explained step by step?

Sleeving SATA cables is much like the birds and the bees... the cable is the...uhh... well... ok, the sleeve is like a... umm... ;)

As for the new backplate being a little too much, well, it may not be for everyone and until we have a working prototype made, it's still only virtual. :)

SECOND EDIT: I'll just throw this idea out there: What if on the top of that design where you have the word "murderMod", you did the same dripping blood looking thing like on the front panel. Then it just flowed into the squigglies on the bottom, with the murderMod word on the bottom horizontally just like it does on the top panel? I don't know if I described that very clearly, but it sort of ties in the front AND top all into one piece of heaven. No?

Cheers. :)

I don't see any reason why we can't incorporate the new backplate into your case. :yepp:

As for your idea - it's exactly something we played with. We tried all kinds of stuff. Nils even came up with the idea of creating the same touch sensitive "spot" we use on the front plate to activate the optical drive door, but instead having it turn on and off the lighting. It get's a bit complicated though, essentially because the back plate is only 1/16" thick as opposed to the 1/8" of the front panel. We'll definitely explore a more elaborate design for the future but for now, we'll get a prototype made of the present design and see how it looks in reality.

I love the fact you've carried the little details on throught the case, like the little acrylic and metal bits that support the ribbing are just a jenius level of attenetion to detail.

Thank you Mankz. :)

I was deeply inspired by your work in Watery. Simply brilliant.

My pleasure. Enjoy, my friend. :)



Render Treats: Concept renders of the next featured project. Hopefully, we'll start the build in early August. When we have more details, we'll create a worklog and answer any and all questions. For now our focus is getting the new website up and running - ready for orders.

wow that thing looks great! best of luck to you charles :up:

Thanks for the response, Charles!

Yes, we'll definitely have to email one another regarding a back plate for me, I do like that alot.

Makes sense about the difference in thickness. I love what you guys are capable of.

I absolutely love the new rendering of pure|murderbox. It really features the name and gives the case a whole new depth with that break in the middle. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for that thread.

I looked at your website today and noticed the pics of FriedChicken's Murderbox along with the other subtle changes. Great news. I'm excited for you that murderbox.com AND murdermod.com are both becoming a reality. You deserve it. I see only great things from the pair of you in the future.

P.S. I can't wait for my murderMod! Lol

hang on charles... let me just pick up my jaw! those concepts look so nice!!!:up:

just the part about getting the shrink tubes thru...do i need to trim down the plugs?

again, AMAZING work! :up: & +1 for you for answering every post :)

approximately 15 days and counting for murdermod.com and some little pieces of perfection for the rest of us...I cannot wait to see what other pieces you and nils have in store for us!!!

plus not only that but your next project looks set to outdo FC murderbox which I didn't think would be possible!! :yepp:

Great work charles!

The next project is pure computer gorgeous :slobber:

Whoah! :eek:
That looks amazing!

Pure madness charles, pure madness! Great job on the murderbox, got me lots of ideas I can use! I'm thinking about starting a mod after my holidays myself! Keep up the great work and good luck on your next murderbox, which looks already stunning! ;)

Oh my god. Is there a stepup programm for current murdermod users? :D

:rofl:
I think there needs to be more people in the Murdermod factory to start churning out these cases.

I really like pure murderbox, reminds me Modern Style (tiffany style) but with actual design features like more pure curves.

FriedChicken, you'd probably need to commission another one for the missus...
excellent finish to this case, excellent ideas for the next cases...

you'll have to excuse me for a second.......what the :banana::banana::banana::banana: man..... :lol: that is awesome. ill add this to the list of why i need a new job...so i can contact Charles and have my own murdermod project.

:eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2: Can i say OMG... OMG OMG OMG. If i got the money i am seriously interested on that muderbox

:wierd::wierd::wierd::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:

Can we buy just the case charles? ???

Holy %^#$%*@$%&^%&( !!!!!

Charles, that is absolutely the most insane build I have ever seen.

"Ordered Chaos" is a perfect descriptor for this build.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!

FC you are damn lucky man.

Holy @$%^&*@^%#^%*( !!!!


EDIT: Charles, how flexible are you with the hardware? Lets say I decide to commission a custom murderbox, but I want a different mobo? Or different RAM? Or.....whatever.....

Are the hardware options on your website the only ones available or if someone commissions a build and ships you specific pieces is that kosher with you?

The second thing I would do if I won the lottery or get any serious money....you'd be getting a call :D

Seriously...the best, cleanest, and beautiful work I've ever seen. I can see you'll be busy this year...and the next, and the next.........:up:

whats the first? :p:

I have a few questions regarding this mod:

what tubing/water add-on has be used for the orange-colored tubing?? Is that UV-reactive stuff??

And what diameter does the sleeving-hardware have? The ones used for all the 6/8-pin videocard power? and what size do you need for the S-ATA-cables?

thanks for your help!!

That render is now my wallpaper :D stunning

omg that really looks stunning!@!!!!

sheesh, I don't check this thread for 2 days and look what happens. That render is beyond description. I thought it was FC's case when I first saw it, and I was like 'damn, did that guy score or what!'. Still I think your business will do very well and you sir, have made me seriously look at TJ cases now (even though I have one mod under way and one active computer + 2 lappies and god knows what other misc parts laying around) and at the same time made the desire level high.

fantastic.
