Cant wait to see the flames!

**coolmiester** · 06-14-2009, 09:54 AM

Updates coming thick and fast now and at this rate it looks like i should be getting the case back this week so i'm going to have to get my skates on and secure some hardware to fill it up

I was hoping to go tri-sli 285's but with the new single pcb 295's on the horizon i'm hoping we can maybe get those in time and i also have the new SR-1 (Silent Revision) rads on route from HardwareLabs which should be here early this week so looking forward to getting a system installed.

Anyway.....we have a blue flame throwing dragon...

Wow

**millertime359** · 06-14-2009, 10:10 AM

That is really sick CM I love it. That thing needs to get put out on display.

**shazza** · 06-14-2009, 10:13 AM

Just awesome! I go away for a day, and the Dragon comes to life - even breathing BLUE Flames!!! Please do give our kudos to the artist. I am just stumped at how these guys do the masking and airbrushing. Quite some talent.

**Nashaz** · 06-14-2009, 10:41 AM

Thats just sick.
Great job with the airbrushing!...

**wondergod** · 06-14-2009, 10:44 AM

Nice give that artist a pat on the back...and a beer

**grasskicker509** · 06-14-2009, 12:14 PM

pimpin! just pimpin!

**coolmiester** · 06-16-2009, 10:37 AM

Just about done now and ready to go to clear coat and polish when apparently it really comes to life so looking forward to that but i'm pretty happy with it so far and looking forward to getting a system in there with the Nitro in the front

**Blizzy** · 06-16-2009, 11:41 AM

realy nice o.o

your casemods are the best!!
Keep them coming

**millertime359** · 06-16-2009, 12:29 PM

yea that thing is going to be really nice with some clear on it. That dragon is going to pop

TNT landed this morning with 4 prototype rads from Hardware Labs.

I managed to speak and thank HWLabs just after who told me i was the first modder to get my hands on these so i consider myself hugely privileged so a massive thanks to the HWLabs team and for getting me them so soon and here's hoping i can do them justice.

Included is 2x Black Ice SR-1 240 prototypes and 2x Black Ice SR-1 360 X-Flow prototypes all in what HWLabs are calling a Black Carbon finish and i got to say i'm really really impressed as these things look the absolute business and the build quality and paint is simply stunning.

You can see immediately that the fin density has been greatly widened which no doubt will have a massive effect on airflow so look forward to some testing by the main men but just quickly hooking up a CM fan i can feel and hear the difference.

Anyway, here's a few of the very first pictures of the new SR-1 series radiators

HWlabs low FPI rads.....

**millertime359** · 06-17-2009, 06:03 AM

Is that like a matte black finish on those? It looks really good. I will be interested to see how they perform

**HuffPCair** · 06-17-2009, 11:23 AM

So when are you going to be dropping this off at my house? LOL

**Jah** · 06-18-2009, 01:45 AM

That is some swet looking rads, almost as sweet as that case

HW rads have always looked good but the high noise high performance approach have never felt compiling to me.
Low FPI HWLabs sure looks interesting/promising.

**Darth_Penguin** · 06-18-2009, 04:47 AM

wow, those rads really look top notch!

**Rise** · 06-18-2009, 05:13 AM

very nice, keep those updates comin ;D

**shazza** · 06-18-2009, 06:38 AM

Will be interesting to see how the rads check out. The case sure came out great. Definitely a one of a kind "ZOTAC" special.

**Knight203** · 06-18-2009, 07:02 AM

I'm in love. With the hardware, with the case, with the paint...all of it. Very nice job to you and the painter.

**masxerofkartis** · 06-19-2009, 01:49 AM

I just stumbled onto this thread, ofcourse the case is as good as always, however i do have a question. How come you didn't go i7 on this one?

Also, the airbrush job is fantastic, and the case turned out to be a beauty. as mentioned above, it should really go on display

I'm still on the lookout for a dual i7 board that can accommodate tri-sli.......preferably with black PCB so if you come across one be sure to let me know

Picked the finished Zotac mod box back up late tonight from DP CustomPaint and i was going to wait till daylight tomorrow to get some decent pictures but i couldn't wait tbh as it looks absolutely stunning so did the best i could with what i got.

These guys really did a fantastic job, i got to hand it to them its just a shame i can't do the 16 coats of deep gloss clear coat justice but hopefully it gives a good idea.........and i'll try for better soon.

Time to start adding some hardware i guess

**Krazeyivan** · 06-24-2009, 04:29 PM

Really nice work - looking foward to the bits in the middle!

When I win the lotto you can build my PC! - your close by

**shazza** · 06-24-2009, 04:35 PM

I think your photos do it justice. It came out perfect.

**millertime359** · 06-24-2009, 05:06 PM

very very nice, can't wait to see it start to come together
