Project Obsessed (Original U2-UFO build) (56k beware).....

[Tsaroth]

Hello all. If you remember my other project, I did my first watercooling set up in a Lian-Li rocketfish case that I modded but I've moved on and want to do something else.

First let me introduce my sponsors.........

Any more confirmed sponsors I will be definitely be adding ASAP

I'm using existing hardware and new case/water cooling stuffs. Here are the lists....... (being updated)

Hardware:

Asus Maximus II Formula
Intel Q6600 that runs right now @ 3.6ghz with 1.272v (will be pushing for 4 stable after build is complete)
Visiontek 4870 512MB
4 GB Mushkin Redline (Great memory, been very stable so far)
Corsair HX620W Modular PSU (that I am sleeving)



I want to do a very clean build that looks great and can show my skills with building and laying out a computer. I'm not as great a modder as most of the people on these forums but I have some skills and I'm sure I'll make a great computer. Lets start it off with pictures of the case.



The case I was able to pick up for 240. I think it was a good price and it's a bit dirty and used but I'll clean it up real nice.

The removable motherboard tray and pull out Drive cage. I like these a lot. This is the first case that I have ever had that has had these features.



Taking the thumbscrews out became a chore I will be replacing these with red ones so that there's some contrasting color around the outside.

The already sleeved cables. I will be re-doing these because the weave is really really loose.

I will probably be ordering a red lighted front button from Mountain mods or somewhere else if anyone knows what size the original UFOs use and where to get them for a good price. I want red though. I want something like this....



Well back to my case.



Stripped down and nekkid.

The top of the case. There is a hole that was drilled out by the previous owner for a fillport.



A close up of the hole. It was well done but I don't use a fillport. I need to find a way to put something on this to fill it or something.

Just another shot when I first had it. There isn't a windowed top, it has the original top with a small window and 2 fans but the previous owner had it on the side so it looked like the top was a big window top.

SOOOOO what am I putting in it you ask??



J/K

First off I figure a few fans would be a good idea.......





Ok, I lied , around 14 fans should suffice.

That's it for tonight. I have some video games to play and I'll be posting with an update before too long.

Stay tuned for some nice stuff
