-=The Guru of 3D rig gallery rev.2 Part 2=-

give me a case just as big and i'm happy.

the lian li pc-a71b or johns stacker.

i like the psu/board/psu design.

 

My case is the lian li v2000 wolfman and im very happy with it.I had the v1000 before it and its a very nice case but i found it a little to cramped and wish id got a v2000 in the first place.

 

its nice but i want to mount my pa120.3 internally

thats why i want the lian li pc-a71b

 

So where do you intend to put that pa120 in that case.. or is it top secret

i will not copy i promise

 

psu @ bottom

pa @ top


hot air rises

or modify

psu @ top
pa @ bottom (lose the hdd drive bays)

Talking about my Stacker, Wolfy? :smoke:



Old picture, taken before I changed the PSU.

 

quoting jeremy clarckson; thats just another way of saying the doors will fall off.

 

Finishing touch on my MSI-AMD Crossfire rig

I finally received the two bridges and have them installed along with the card the was installed in the little C2D rig that whooped up on this AMD system...lol

 

nice one Wolfy.. now i just need to find me that case in the Uk and execute your plan muhahaha

 

Does that case have a slightly brown or bronze tint to it? If it does, that is sweet.

 

good luck, but if you find it and they have 2 pm me

Lewis i think thats his carpet.

 

aw.. i was looking really hard on where to find that bronze tint on the pic. and yes, it's part of the background.. it's a capret me also thinks.

 

Very Red machine there lewislink, very ATI. Well heres my very green Nvidia machine. Ive been a busy boy this summer and so far i have ripped out my AM2 mobo and my X2 4200+ (nice overclocker :approval and replaced it with an XFX 680i A1 rev mobo with a Q6600 running at 3Ghz on 1.25v. I then added another 2gb of geil 800mhz DDR2 (4-4-4-12-T2) to keep vista 64 happy. Lastly i replaced my Audigy ZS platinum with an X-FI gamer sound card. Now all im waiting for is the next geforce series (call it what you will) then im good to go!

Enjoy!

PS. The dust is nasty in the picture but thats what happens when you paint it matt black :smoke:




Just added this one with my case door closed - and my custom side grill.

 

an entire matt black case is very cool. too bad about the screwless drive thingies, they look very much out of place imo.

 

Nah i was going to paint them black too, but i thought they might end up getting stuck to the case or something just as anoying. To be honest i have never been a fan of those tooless clips as they never seem to work as well as a good old fasioned screw. They mabey comming off soon ... mabey this week, who knows!

 

ive never really understood the point of those things. imo, if you are too stupid to handle a screwdriver, you shouldnt have your hands on the inside of a computer.

 

My desk all clean for once





yes i know its very messy but i cant do anything about it without cutting chunks out of the motherboard tray.



my freezer 7 pro "mod", replaced the stock fan with a 120mm akasa amber series to improve airflow and make it a tad quieter.......and i need to clean my pc after looking at these pics....:O

 

Lol aint it so :cops:

Oh and gary i found out that stuffing cables at the back of the case (as in behind the motherboard tray) helps dramatically with the cabling problem of the armor / kandalf type cases. Also Sata cables have no problems fitting in the tiny holes by the hard drive cages at the front which again helps. Its a tough case to make tidy with out cutting it but its worth the effort if you can do it. My case has taken me ages to get the cabling as is, when i first built it the ammount of cables was not pleasing to the eye.

Nice keyboard, i have the eclipse II myself and im very impressed with it, it feels soooo smooth and generally confortable to use. Oh and its sytlish to boot!

 

ive tried putting my cables behind the motherboard tray before but here is like no holes or anything to put anything through. i think my problem is that i have 4 hdd's and so many fans. i have just run out of speace for all the cables.

 

i agree that the case was poorly designed on the cabling aspect such as the molex cables wont fit in the gaps along the side although if you shave the little notch off the top of the connector then they will fit. Its a difficult case to get decent cabling with but it is do-able.
