Good project , i dont like the tubing with the coils and noctua fans dont fit in there very good , you could paint them red or something like that, how did you do the Biohazar symbol? ( Vinyl ?)
You could also paint the inside of the case.. ( all black)
Edit: oh its a work in progress looks better now but try to paint the case all black on the inside of it
MK III configuration is basically introduced for these purposes;
- Full face block to cool the Asus 5870's VRM
- Full auto thermal throttling of radiator fans via the Asus R2G and 5870. Two AC F12s are controlled via the CPU PWM header, while another pair is handled by the GFX.
- Switch from 3/8" to 1/2" tubes using compression barbs and rotary fittings
- A little bling for the fans
Phil
Thanks. I'm using acoustic foam to blend in the cables and actually prefer a contrasting silver instead of an all black interior.Quote:

The biohazard artwork is custom airbrushed.

The upgrade is almost completed except my Orbital Matrix Typhoon GX is down and waiting for RMA. Sigh.
Phil
Look really nice! 1606 Mhz tho?
I've enabled SpeedStep in the bios. I only need 4GHz for my games and resource hungry apps, not for web browsing, MS Words, etc. Anyway, that's an outdated shot, my rig is now idling at 2.3GHz.Quote:

A Matrix Orbital GX Typhoon inverted tri-color to replace my faulty unit. At the "right" viewing angle, the background is supposed to be black, while the text is red. LOL. Just can't get the color right with my cam and too lazy to set custom white balance.
I love the flexibility of LCD Studio combined with Everest Ultimate plug-in.
Phil
Congrats on completing your "humble" (Not!) project. It really came out nice.
:toast:
Thanks.. too many epic projects here in XS! :clap:Quote:

The stock blue LEDs are embedded behind the LCD and plastic light diffuser. You'll have to detach the aluminum LCD bracket to gain access and desolder the LEDs. They can be replaced using a pair of 3mm LEDs. Go for the clear type for higher luminance.Quote:

Just power up the LCD and you should be able to single out the LEDs easily.Quote:

Very nice Phil~
Seeing less projects and posts on these classic V-series, a very good chassis of a time and still. :bounces:
Damnit Phil, I keep seeing these awesome V1000 builds, and mine is jus sat next to me blissfully awaiting a new lease of life!
As you have said ppost, there isnt much out there that beats the subtle styling of the V series cases.
Yes man, in addition, the inverted-ATX layout it offered, was also the reason that the V-series attracted me at that time,Quote:

Just post my current desktop, hope Phil won't mind.
