Re: EVH build
Wow, I like that paint job!
Was that pattern planned out or more random in choice?

Re: EVH build
Thanks guys, I was actually pretty scared painting this, I've seen how badly these paint job attempts can turn out...
Well I've got some clearcoats to spray today (may need to break out the space heater) but I really do appreciate the comments!
Most definitely planned out, I actually drew something up to help me plan out the first set of stripes. I did it freehand and made a few minor changes along the way but I'm glad I made that little roadmap. As for the second layer, I used this picture (56k warning) as a guide. Like I said before, just the second set of stripes took me over an hour to layout. It's really hard to visual how it will turn out...camaroguy1998 wrote:Was that pattern planned out or more random in choice?

Re: EVH build
Odd, I'd told Dan yesterday that jabtech had just emailed me saying their AM2 GTZ brackets were back in stock... Maybe it'll be coming along shortly. Can't hurt to call them up and ask

Re: EVH build
why did you get a ram block? those are really just a waste of your flow as ram is going to hit its limit on a set of copper heatsinks...

I'll give it a shot and if I'm not happy with it then I'll break out the individual ramsinks.

Re: EVH build
I used one of those ram blocks on a modded 7900GT some time back and they do work as intended without really hurting flow. You get the most out of the block when you volt mod the memory on your video card , but normal OC temps are nice as well.

Re: EVH build
OK I finally got off my lazy butt and did some more work, it's not entirely finished (still need to do the front panel) but it's done enough to be up and running.
First up, my horribly planned out loop, this thing was a bitch to bleed...was a good learning experience to say the least. When it comes time to drain I'll definitely be rerouting everything though.
Next up we have a shot of my harddrive harness made entirely of zipties...pretty much the theme of this whole build though
Now for the fun part: Wire Management
Oh the horror!
After about 15 minutes of cursing we arrive at this
Much better, but will the back panel fit?
Why yes, yes it does...
Now, this next picture is not for the squeamish. Or the fainthearted.
It's horrible!
It's ghastly!!
And probably not safe for young children!!!
IT'S FRANKENCASE!!! (these statements have not been evaluated by the FDA or anybody really)
OK so it's not that bad but I do hope to get the front finished in the next month or so. As for the orange peel paint, I'm going to let it keep curing for another month or two just to be sure it's completely settled before I sand it down.

Re: EVH build
Did you mount your HD with Zip ties? If so, that's awesome!
Re: EVH build
It's bad that the cables in the back look tidier before you had to arrange them to make the sidepanel fit on.
Cable tie mounting ftw! (every mod has to have a bit of ghetto in it!)
Looking good, but would have loved to seen a better pipe layout and front done, so get on it
