Lian Li PC-A77 Mod: Project [Thessa]

[knet370]

Ok..A little introduction if i may..Basically, the goal is to watercool the case all internal without ruining the case's simple and minimalistic design. Yet maintaining a cool and quite system. The system will be overclocked to its highest stable clock(3.4ghz) on stock vcore.

So i present Project[Thessa] < named after my significant other as a tribute for financing this whole project. LOLZ! ;-D

tantricmodz.com -- probably the best modder in the philippines check out his other works. btw, he's the one behind bugkalot (junkun13)'s mods too, heh.

Looks cool

[MomijiTMO]

You know, I don't think I've ever seen a A77 on here before D:

[knet370]

i think its a new case just recently released so others have not yet bought it..not sure. or maybe they just dont like the case. hehe..

[MomijiTMO]

I was going to get its little bro but ended up getting something else. It is a nice case though, especially with the fan controller included.

Nice work so far, I love the clean & classy look. That is what I plan to do as well with my Lian-Li case when it arrives later today

[knet370]

im plannig to put a lcd screen on the front..

Hey kumusta,

How much was the powder coating?

that rad grill is slick

[knet370]

@disruptfam

kumusta mate.

the powdercoat was around more or less $50us overall..

[disruptfam]

omg

i'm so coming back to the Philippines.$50 is sooooooo cheap

how about the lasercutting?

[knet370]

im not sure about the laser but its cheaper than powdercoat. i think..

[disruptfam]

wow

powder coating would be 4 times that over here same as laser cutting

project is looking good...

keep it going

[knet370]

if only we have cnc mahinces here..fc blocks would be half cheaper than others. ;-)

[pcaddict]

looks nice, subscribed!

[Volkum]

Very nice setup! Gave me a few ideas for a project of my own (I've been debating picking up the A77 or a G70 for a summer mod project).

[mussafry]

Damn, i wish i could get a person/company to mod my case the way i want Id pay whatever just to get the the stuff i want done :P (since im such a noob modder). Does any1 know anything like that in the US?

Great job though! Looking very sexy! I was going to buy that case, but decided to go with a PC-P80.

Hey knet370
Looking good so far - but pleeeeaaaase no external LCD (just my opinion)!
In my opinion it would destroy the whole look - like it did on the vodoo-omen-thing , but if you really need an LCD for essential informations - go ahead because usability should always come first.

All the best to the philippines! And say hi to Junkun

[emoners]

looking good Kenneth!

@dualbrain

[knet370]
