This project ist sponsored by Aquatuning and Phobya

Thank you very much!





Hello guys

I decided to also start my Project in the xtremesyystems forum
It would be a lot work for me as an 16 year old guy to translate everything but i think the pictures are better than noting?! I hope so

When you have questions about the pictures or the project just ask me
I will explain everything!

I hope you enjoy it

First sorry for my english

I will say a little bit about the project:
At the last lan party I decided to buy a much smaller case than the V2010b
So i bought a Lian Li A05NB

Hardware:

EVGA X58 SLI LE
GTX300 when it will be released
6 GB Corsair Dominator Ram

The Case will get a mirrorfinish (chrom)



The Rise of the A05NB







The Midgard is for a friend's PC




At first I carried the case into the cellar and removed the outer hull




Next I removed the gray plastic holders for the DVD burner
I like the oldskool way with screws




Here you can see how i will mount the reservoir (Danger Den)




Now i removed the HDD cage
The most time i think they are useless
The HDD will be placed in a Watercool Silentstar with mirrorfinish




I could notive that the painting is not really scratchproofed
This makes it easier for me to remove the painting for the mirror finish




Here the total view
What a cute, black case



The ugly, black feets were a no go
They had to dissapear very fast
To remove them i had to push the bolts out and voilá
So the barbs were not widened any more



I knew it
The feets I bought from fhantastic from the forumdeluxx will get there place



Now the mounting
Because i had no plier near by me i had to stop and go to dinner
Will be continued later




And it goes on

At first i fetched my friend the clue remover




And that's the place of action



At first I removed the cables and with soft vielence the plastic holder
Now i sprayed clue remover on it




Now the Power Supply
It's a Silverstone Strider 700W Full Modular





At first i removed the hull and this was brought to light




I removed the the fan to get an overview
For this i had to remove the fan connector




The earthing...




And so the power supply board lookes like




To not damage the power supply in any way I put it into a box




The parts where i had to remove the painting




Now the fan
The sticker looks terrible



It had to die




Here I think i will drill some holes into the case for the ?"Through Hole"? Fittings




That was it for today
At least picture from my workshop

Hmmm ok guys

I will translate the worklog and continue in english
Should not be be impossible

I also think that pictures without an explanation are a little bit confusing

[shazza]

Thanks for the translation, alpha! Nice photos, and great progress so far.

[Boogerlad]

wow. Really nice!

[HeUeR]

Realy nice project you have there, waiting for some more stuff and pics

[dro]

A05~ its been a while since I last saw one
should be an interesting build~

[silverphoenix]

Swt same case and Mobo as me!!
Good Luck with your system.

At first i take look at the though hole fittings
And i had to notice that it will not fit how i thought
And when i would have to use SLI fittings :/




After that i marked the cutout
So I can change the CPU cooler much faster
But... I don't know if the hole is big enough for 1366




Now i mounted my old, broken 775 MB
So I can imagine everything much better




Then I marked verticalness for the trough hole fittings
So later the Tygon from the EK GPU block to the fitting will be exactly vertical






And here my favourite tool



Now i want to try the polishing attachment
Before the chroming everything shall be shiny
The HDD Cage was my guinea pig










That was not enough so again...



Now let's take a look under the surface



ahh


When the hole case is polished i can send it to the chrome-man


And here i will mount the Laing DDC (yes^^ no D5 for american maybe this is unbelievable, my poor ears :P )




edit:

to abviate questions about my hand!
no, i don't have child hands!
Only looks like because of the pullover

[aka_GK]

interesting, subd

[Earzz]

lol about the hand, i was almost planning to say something about it but then i scrolled a bit further down and you cleared it up.
BTW nice case, gonna buy it soon myself but no WC for me.

[Anemic]

In English ey? Niiice =)

[1337_alpha]

Shall i mount into the front an enermax apollish or an aerocool silver lightning?

And I hope my english is not too bad and good to understand
Isn't it?^^

[GregSG]

The apollish i guess

Awaiting ur updates

[1337_alpha]

How you can see, i have a new signature and avatar which fit to the project
I hope you like it
Normally the avatar is animated but no chance... not possible to use .gif datas


Here is my polished flow meter








Today the post came and brought me some things

- Silenstar -







and a few things like XSPC Laing Reservoir, Alphacool Cool Cover silver and Backplate
But the XSPC i will not use
I will change to EK 150cm and the old Watercool Top for Laing
How I will mount it you see when time comes

[1337_alpha]

Up to now i was shopping in the ?do it yourself store?









The Metabo is breathtaking *__*
With 2 gears, all kinds of features and built in flashlight :bigok:
That's no compare to a normal cordless screwdriver

[bentleya]

[1337_alpha]

Thanks at supercopa from the forumdeluxx
Barus from PL will sell me an acrylic top for the Mips Ram Cooler and one for the EK EVGA X58 SLI LE block
Surprisingly barus' family lives in Karlsruhe, where I live :eek2
In November he will visit them so he can give me them personally
