Offical Show Your Rig Off

I reckon that looks quality Low

One of my mates says it's stupid and unnecessary, until i reminded him of his Cathodes and his Raidmax Sagitta

Any my Stacker 830 all put back together. Well 95% of it anyways

too bad the pictures don't show the quality of the powder coating.

Mousey · Oct 18, 2007, 04:00 AM

That looks fantastic Low

Great job!
I'll rep you as soon as i can, apparently i need to spread it around some more first

nice low really nice

zaim · Oct 22, 2007, 05:39 AM

i did the same to my old antec 900... sprayed the chassis a matte black =)

Lowfat · Oct 22, 2007, 10:33 PM

but did you powder coat the rest of the case ?

zaim · Oct 22, 2007, 11:13 PM

nope didn't have time, lol

Here's a few new pix of my setup hope you enjoy and please let me know what you think it's ok to be honest lol.

Sorry bout the crap photos my cell is only 2MP but it's what I got.

Nice cable management there, Nifty placing for your cathodes too, i like.
And does your PSU fan have some white LEDs on it or something? The top of your case appears to be lit up

Just missing Penryn

God i envy you Chaos >_<
I've ordered a new mobo and it should be coming soon with any luck(Yes anonymous third party it is the same one you said you'd send me

).
Here's a few pics of my current rig with my IL9 Pro

Side Panel On

Side Panel Off

This pesky molex ruined my cable management

(What little management there was already, i might re-do it sometime)

The LEDs have been steadily dying in this fan, i'm waiting for the other 2 to die because it will look really cool methinks

any suggestions for speeding up the process without killing the fan?

And that's it for now because photobucket is really slow with this download i'm doing ;p

Ultra X3 1000W - Great PSU

**kris23** · Nov 18, 2007, 10:51 PM

Ultra fucked me over at least 3 times already, i'm trying to avoid them as much as i can man..... to kill leds man, just run 9 volts across the leads directly on the led, then they be fried

Judas · Nov 18, 2007, 10:52 PM

At times like this i wish i had a camera..

take snapages of my cosmos 1000 and the insanely well done cabling of 8 SATA cables.....erg..... that was a horrid mess to figure out.... my P4x2 cable was definitely NOT long enough.. glad coolermaster packaged an extension.... to bad it wasn't neater looking.

And how do i do that? Do i just touch the adapter to a 9v battery or what?
I'm not too good with electronics you see, computers i'm fine with but when it comes to specifics with electronics i'm absolutely clueless, the most technically impressive thing i've done is change a plug

Kazeko · Nov 19, 2007, 04:36 AM

Chaos, what brand/model fans are you using on your TR120?

lol, find the little wires that lead to each led and run 9 volts or more across them, leds are diodes so they wont be damaged very much if voltage is put in the wrong way, basically, you overload leds

if thats too much for your brain, just hacking at led wires also makes them stop working, all you need is a knife

**ChaosMinionX** · Nov 19, 2007, 08:21 PM

Who said anything about having to overvolt? just cross their contacts with a powersource and short them out.

even though its 3.0v, wouldnt the short circuit melt something with accumulating heat? i never really liked to take chances like this....

i simply suggest cutting the wires to the leds
