Wow the rad looks great in the camo. What's next on the to do list?
I found some left over modders mesh and i need to fashion up something to hold an optical drive and a power switch :DQuote:

Did'nt get anything done last week as it was my birthday and i was mostly drunk or hungover lol !
Not far off building now - a few things still to get and i cut some mesh and sprayed a few more bits for the case this am so a minor update !!

Specs for the build as follows :-
Qx9650 (w/cooled)
Dfi X48 mobo
4gb OCZ Pc8000 reaper
EVGA Gx2 (w/cooled)
74gb raptor
Corsair Tx750w Psu
External optical drive
Red camo for COD4 is all i can think of when looking at this. Good Job!
A few new goodies have arrived and i'm off Wednesday/Thursday so i can start putting this daft thing together

very nice mate!
Very nice!
looks like the MGS3 game using brick camoflunge suit
looks even nicer if you give a glossy look
Thanks guys :D Got a bit more done this morning before work !!
Stripping down thw Gx2 you'll need a Jewellers Phillips/crossdrive screwdriver !

I cant remember who 1st cut the outer casing to fit over the waterblock but i figured if i was going to void the warranty by doing so i might as well go the whole hog and do this !

Thought i'd do something different with the cable sleeving, The Dfi X48 has green Uv slots - sata ports etc so green is the theme with sleeving and tubing. I bought some green heatshrink and rather than sleeving and shrink on the ends - its all heatshrink :-

and by overuse of a ciggy lighter we get this kinda camo effect which just fits in with the theme ! -

No wai D=
Go the camo block and gfx covers!
Ye - liking the way the gpu covers came out :D

nice mod, i would not paint my case that color, but its coming out beautiful!
Well, most of the day spent assembling and cable routing has got me to this stage - not finished but not far off either !

Look'n good.
Wow it's looking great. There isn't too much more to do I hope.
Cheers guys, its pretty much there - i want to hide the hole under the Psu and i'm thinking of trying to cover/disguise the Psu itself somehow - not sure yet ! :D
Nice work! That paint job is growing on me and the detail work is incredible! The blocks are the sexiest part, that's pretty hardcore.
Really Great Job!! Looks very good.
At 1st i didnt like the paintjob either but like YMAA wrote its growing on me.I start to like more and more after every look.
Dont get me wrong,i still would go with nice black but its really nice to see something different for a change.
We needed a crazy person who got imsomnia from Wales to show this to us.
Hehe - i like your comment - you get where i'm coming from :DQuote:

this is definitely one CRAZY bench setup you have man! Great work. What if you used Modder's mesh to cover the entire bottom section?
I did think about that but i kind of like it as it is - i put mesh behind the rad and a strip of led's behind that on the floor to light it up .
