that's it for now for parts
now starting build
first sorry for pics but they will be better
ok now only painted power supply and start sleeving
but everything start somewhere
24 pins sleeving
PSU and 24pins done
receive my GPU, its a reference PCB but not reference cooler, ssd will be white with a special ting on it, and painted 2.5 to 3.5 adapter for a WD black 500G
ahhhhh these feet are perfect for a Caselabs S3, this little red thing want race with my previous gift
I post this pics to show what happens with white sleeving with colored cable, but I don't have tools to do my cable, next project you will not see this again, but need to bevery close to see it
and I don't understand why fan look blue, they are UV, in person they are Purple
I really don't like where is the 24 pins on motherboard but I will keep it finally, not a the right place but not so bad
ait5 for other rad on top, I will paint the Un Holder and res mount white, and not sure but I think change rear fan for a purple led one,
I change connector for purple connector, I think I will put purple sticker on motherboard's 24 pins
with door, the 24 pins is not so bad, not a the real place but....., think if I keep gigabyte or change for an Asrock or stinger but its another $150 and more just for cable placement.......... not sure at this moment
I really like the fan In front, they seem to be invisible and only led are visible, change switch but the led on power switch are very low or dimmed, maybe in next order
I painted XSPC memory adapter, I really like the result
with side panel
I changed all connector for purple connectors, I really like it, I painted the res holder in white a lot better than black
look the color of the pastel purple coolant, wow!, I think its a perfect match
Like I said, still have a lot of job but I really like the purple theme,
