Project: Hulk Rev 2 (Corsair Obsidian!)

Well, as I promised, I have taken the final pictures.

This has been a VERY long journey, it started over 6months ago when I tor down Hulk V1 mainly because the PSU blew up but I wasn't 100% happy with it either. I then waited and waited for the Corsair case to hit AUS, it was then more waiting for specific parts and so on, I was pulling my hair out to get my computer back and get off the laptop.

All your comments thus far are GREATLY appreciated and this is an AWESOME community, whenever I post an update, it puts a smile to my face coming here the next day seeing all the wonderful comments, it truly does. You all have a HUGE influence on HULK, and all your constructive criticism really helps!

Anyway, enough yabba, it's time to show you Bruce, AKA. THE HULK! I hope you've enjoyed this ride as much as I have, cause I know I've had a ball, hopefully the future will bring some customers for more builds I can share.

(Sorry for all the pictures, I can't decide which to keep! I also apologize for my crappy window shots, it's hard to get no reflections.)

Cheers mate.

Intel Core i7 920
eVGA SLI LE
ATI Radeon 5870
Corsair Dominator 1600mhz 6gb
Intel X-25M 80gb SSD
Samsung 1TB F1
Silverstone Strider 1000watt (ST1000)
Auzentech X-Plosion

I think that's roughly it?

oh
my
god

it's awesome :eek2:

now put emotions aside and jaw back to the mouth, things that I like most:
1. white tubing and black fittings looks mmm sexy :up:
2. two pumps like two Hulk's hands arrghhh power!
3. purple water, that's very cool, nice touch and looks exactly like Hulk's pants :D
btw what is it? Feser?

Conratulation mate, you did very good job :up:

:eek:


:D


Wow, I'm drooling a bit.. and that hasn't happened since Sniipe put "Flow" up here. Nashaz's build too, I guess.

:clap:

Excellent job, bud! And wow did you get some incredible shots in there! You take all those pictures yourself?

I kind of hate that you went away from the green liquid, but I'd have to be a moron to think that the final build doesn't look great as-is. The white tubing does look nice, and that res--whatever the heck it is--is probably the best looking res that I've ever seen in my life.

Just an outstanding job you've done, and I'm sure that your sponsors are proud as heck of the end product.

If I may make one tiny suggestion, it would be to somehow cover up that LED strip light with an L-bracket or something like what Sniipe did with his in 'Permafrost.' It just looks out of place in what is otherwise a very, very refined build. But in the end that's your choice, and you should be nothing but thrilled to have this sexy box sitting beside you.

Job well done. :up:

Wow, thanks HEAPS!

I can say I took all those pictures myself, with a $200 P&S camera, in my room, on my desk, with the light coming through the window (Cloudy skies, so PERFECT conditions).

I had green liquid in my mind when I started, but, I thought there would be TOO much green and kinda look out of place, I tried orange cooling but that didn't work too well, purple is kinda different and goes with the theme so heck, why not? :D

Thanks for the tip! I think I may in the end, just spray paint the bracket black :) Believe it or not though, that TINY strip[ actually lights up the WHOLE case, I'll post one night shot tonight :)

Thanks again!

Truly awesome job, James! Gllad you found a way to pay homage to Hulk's purple pants!

Congratulations on being the first on getting your hands on I&H's res. No better place to showcase its first public unveiling than in your build :thumbs up:

So you owe us a few night shots and some numbers perhaps? :D

Gonna go rescroll and check out your pics again! Simply stunning!

Thanks Rick! Much appreciated, thanks for your opinion on the purple coolant too ;) And the "other" things which I'll post tonight :D

Wow, I'm proud to have my res featured in your build... the whole thing looks amazing.

You definitely have my sponsorship on your next build. Just let me know and I'll take care of you.

Fantastic build! :eek: Initially I was a bit disappointed that you were ditching the MurderMod, but this is super impressive. It would be cool if we got a shot of the EK FC block filled with purple liquid.

Cool res too, iandh. I didn't think the internal threads would make a huge difference in aesthetics, but its refreshingly clean.

Great work dingdong555 :yepp:

Been following this build for a while and now that it's finished all I can say is Truly Awesome! There are so many cool individual parts like the shiny D5 pumps , black bitspower fittings and white tubing to the res with purple coolant. They all add up to such great effect. Gorgeous build mate, just gorgeous.

Left me speechless.

Hahaha, thanks mate!

Hay congragulations James on an outstanding build, I am very proud of you mate. :up:
For a young man you have a very mature head on your sholders and an excellent out look in life to go with it. :yepp:

For me there is alot to like about Bruce, I really like how you have gone about balancing out all the colours in this build.
I feel the purple coolant is not only in sync with the whole Hulk theme
but also looks excellent in this case with the white tubing and green accent sleeving, looks very smooth. :up:

I really like the way you have covered the mobo, to me it really works well with this case and I feel it helps to give the inside a much needed cleaner and more classy look. :up:
The cover over the psu is also an excellent touch and I feel both ideas will be a popular choice that others will follow. :yepp:

Well done mate this is one very sweet build. :up:

wow man, awesome job!!!!!

some great work as been put into this baby... love the res and the colours... good combo... all around a stunning piece of equipment...
have liked this build since i first saw it... even took a few ideas from you >.< ...lol.... hope you dont mind...

sad it has to come to an end... hopefully you'll keep changing things and surprising us :P

Wow. Just wow!! It is by far one of the best 800D builds! Very clean and very well done.

Also what you did with your point and shoot shows that you don't need a high end camera to take great shot!

WOW

The best 800D Build Yet By far ^^

Great Great Great Case ^^
