Thanks :)

It's been long time since I ordered m2f, but there was no time to post some more updated pictures.

Since my tpower died, I ordered maximus 2 formula from ebay, bought gskill PI 4GB kit.

And of course, I've managed to burn my strider too. Happy me when I opened it and saw water :rolleyes:

So the newest addition became The Sisa (Boob in Croatian :D) Seasonic X-650.


So here goes:

I had some spare time to waste while awaiting ebay m2f shipment, so it was painting time. One primer layer and then 3 or 4 layers of white spray layer. It turned out pretty nice:

And then the mobo arrived, o happy day :)
The first thing I did was tore the cooling system apart, and slightly modificated it so my EK NB blok would fit. Also, some polishing action took part. Pics? Okay:

So this was so close to work and I decided to take shots of it before I started it up:

The HDD cubiculum:

And the 360°view in thumbnails (click for maximize) :)

Unfortunately, pressing the button on lian caused the power safe switch to go off; BAM, the pc wouldn't start... I was very disappointed as I gave all my efforts. You can imagine how angry I was at my self as I realized some of the water had ended up in the PSU...

And then I had to sell some stuff and bought X-650, meaning all my sleeving modification is now GONE. I have a 5year warranty on this PSU and I paid full price for it so I didn't want to void it.

Today I am actually over with mourning for sleeves as this PSU is way to good to be mourned. PC is damn quiet, I am actually thinking about getting more slient pump now as I can hear it's vibrations :eek:

For those who don't know, fan in x650 is NOT working unless you draw more than cca 200-250W, and that is THE silence right there :)

So just a few pics, nothing prettier than above, but just that it's here:

Stunned with amount of cables :D

And the interior after installation:

So, this is the end of this mod. Although it could have slight modifications in the future.

Hope you enjoyed this budget modification without expensive tools :)

Of course you are free to express your mind freely :yepp:
