    <Project> Black Freighter </Project>

    Aarr and welcome aboard, Mateys!

    My goal for this build is to improve my lc modding, learn more, and most of all have the most enjoyable time doing it. I tend to go off on tangeants (like now), but I usually reel myself in before hurting myself (sometimes).

    I know "International Speak Like A Pirate day" has come and past so pardon the ship reference. And my labeling? Seriously debatable:

    Specs:
    Engine: Intel i7 920 CPU
    Heart: Corsair (duh) HX 1000W
    Main Deck: Either Asus Rampage Extreme 2 or EVGA Classified x58
    Pirate Cards: GTX 285 x2
    Vessel Moniker: Black Freighter
    Hull: Mountain Mods Extended Ascension
    Cabin: Mountain Mods Extended Pedestal
    Rudders: S-Flex G, Yate Loons, Scythe Kaze Maru
    Lanyards: MDPC-X Psychopack kit and MDPC-X custom order
    Storage Deck: Seagate Barracuda 1.5Tb x 4 Raid1
    Readouts: Matrix Orbital, Thermaltake (yes, Thermaltake 7" LCD monitor)
    Connectors, Adaptors and Rotaries: Bitspower galore
    GPS (I'm reaching now): Kingston HyperX DDR3 12GB
    Captain's Quarters (Wow. Somebody stop me.): Western Digital V-raps 300Gb x 2 Raid0

    Plumbing:
    Tubing:
    Primochill Pro LRT Black, Blue, and Clear 1/2” ID 3/4” OD (Color scheme may change. Uncertain if this combination of colors will look appealing. We'll see. )
    Pumps:
    Swiftech MCP 655 x1
    Swiftech MCP 355 x2
    Res:
    XSPC Acrylic Top x2 or EK-DDC X-RES 140 x2
    EK-Multioption 250 rev.2 x1
    Rads:
    Feser X-Changer Monsta Extreme 420/360 x1
    Feser X-Changer QUAD 480 Extreme x1
    Feser X-Changer Triple 360 Extreme x1
    Blocks:
    Nickel Plated Heatkiller CPU Rev3.0 Block 1366
    EK-FC285 GTX GW Nickel GPU Blocks x2

    HeadWare:
    RealTemps
    Core Temp
    CPU-Z
    GPU-Z
    PC Probe
    Windows 7

    The Mountain Mod case arrived in perfect condition and took over an hour to release all the parts from the super-human packaging.
    It shall be powdercoated after I've fitted the guts and banged her up a bit.
    Enough of my yammerin'. Some preliminary pics:

    The Feser Family hanging out. L to R 360, 480, and the Monsta.


    Thanks for checking in!
