i always thought modding is the modern equivalent of the hot rod.... this just confirms it!

Admittedly not a lot of case modding going on here at present as the Cosmos chassis is at the anodisers so I thought I would get the system up and running on the bench just to make sure everything was working………………i knew that mini Cosmos waterbox would come in handy one day
Anyway got it all up and running like a dream with the CPU’s being cooled by 2 D-Tek FuZion and a GTX480 so everything’s nice and cool there but Zotac are still to decide whether to run two GX2’s or three GTX280’s so pointless putting the GFX under water just yet though I was tempted to fit the monster EK block that weigh in at 1080g each
That’s about it for now until the chassis returns and the side panels get back!
yet another awesome piece.

Looks great, I always love your work. Just thought you and the guys at Zotac might want to know that you can't run Tri-SLI on the D5400XS because it uses older Nvidia chips to provide SLI.
Yep, Deux is correct, best you can do here would be SLi via 2x cards.
No tri-sli supported on SkullTrail.

Well that solves that problem...........glad you guys are paying attention coz i ain't got a clue
Cheers guys
Its a bit of a headache choosing which blocks to go for CPU's and NB due to hose routing but after much head scratching it looks like D-Tek FuZions for CPU's and a DD MC-Chipset block with a modded mounting bracket will be best.
So, decided to make myself a nice little mounting bracket for the MPC-Chipset block.....
Started by scribing the shape onto a 3mm piece of aluminium then took the original MPC mount to mark hole alignment.
Not sure if there's time to get it anodised black or whether i'll just have to paint it but either way it looks OK and fits like a glove
Almost like Storm ^^

Got the side panels back from powder coat today which is a great way of flattening down the standard brushed aluminium and a great flat base for primer so its time to start attaching the vents.
Had to use that 2 part metal stuff to attach a couple of bolts to the back side of the vent to enable it to be screwed down.
I also got hold of this Terotape and Primer which gives the vent a nice cushion to sit on which hopefully eliminates paint cracking when the side panel flexes.
So anyway, this is how it looks and now i've got a night of bodging and wet sanding ahead to blend the vent into the panel then get it into primer ready for paint.
Just did a test fit with the chrome bits on to see what the whole thing looks like in black

Hey thanks for the kind words
On a side note, i've been in touch with Andreoid to see if it was possible to get one of his Ram Block but unfortunately his mill is down and i'd be looking at over 4 weeks to get one shipped so if anyone has one for sale let me know and i'll have it..........though i need it pretty quickly
Soz for the off topic.
nice vents.
terotape = adhesive backed foam insulation? sealed that vent mounting to the panel nicely...
Sort of, though i don't want to give the impression the vents are just stuck on so will be moulding them into the panel with bodge (bondo) before paint, a bit like ones i did a while back
this i wanna see...& maybe copySort of, though i don't want to give the impression the vents are just stuck on so will be moulding them into the panel with bodge (bondo) before paint, a bit like ones i did a while back
Sorry to keep boring everyone with this
A long day of filler - sanding - wet sanding - more filler - more wet sanding and not much more tbh but all ready for primer, paint and clear coat so see what tomorrow brings
Oh yeah and i polished the NB block mount
cool stuff! Lookin' forward to the the p,p and cc.
Nice polishing on the NB. My alu-polishing attempts have been pretty lame in comparison, but I had a problem with some bad polish ("Thunderbolt"). I ordered some of that "Peek" polish that you like, so it should work better.
