Pics are courtesy of a 5D Mark II. I'm waiting on Charles of MM to get everything out to the public at this point.

Charles is planning on releasing new murderMod parts soon, and Xcellere has inside knowledge

Xcellere, looks like you're already off to a great start - I wish you the best on your murderMod build!
Just as a constructive remark, your photos seem to be a bit too yellow, they could use a bit of white balance correction

...I do...

lol I don't have exact knowledge, Charles only told me certain parts will fit in the upcoming case.

Thank you for the kind words Metric!

The lamp I took the picture next to has a beige awning, so the picture's color accuracy is dead-on.

But that is what white balance is for... removing any kind of off white color emanating from the light source.

I don't believe you, prooooove it to us!

I also can't wait to see results of your work (love murdermods), but what is the point of making thread without any content? You have nice psu box, quad radiator and swiftech pump, cool.

To show the parts going into the build? It'll probably be another 4 months before this is done, so who cares?

Does a @murderbox.com email address suffice?

...and yes, please don't get too worked up on the progress of the work log - we're here to enjoy the process, not critique how often/how a person should be posting their new hardware

[shazza]

Many worklogs here start out with posts talking about planning what they are going to do, then progressing to showing pics or parts as they come in. I would suggest that Xcellere edit the first post to make it very clear that it will be some months before it will be completed.

I've cleaned up the thread - removing the debate over whether this thread is a worklog or not - so no need for anyone to go back to that topic.

Another 4 months have passed and still nothing from Charles & co, but I'm still accumulating parts for the upcoming launch of BF3. Hopefully Charles gets his act together before October 25th.

good luck...

[dreamaxx]

Charles is certainly taking his time... I'm sure what he announces will have fans drooling the world over

[aerial]

Btw, is it worth to buy parts like that, if you will keep them in boxes for several months? I mean, it is usually cheaper to just save cash, and then buy all hardware at once, usually prices are going down with time, also sometimes new stuff shows up, and you have better selection of hardware to buy. Sure it isn't big deal, but must hurt to watch all these boxes

[Church]

aerial: depends. sometimes you may get looong waiting time with big pile of things on order for all of them to be at same time in stock. also some things are nice to have on hands sooner to start some modding stages faster. +in few countries there can be limit that doesn't get taxated.

that box cooler is so tiny, it is almost smaller than motherboard radiators
