Thank you for the feedback, seems that most people like the photos regardless of the setting so I will just continue as I'm already doing
Glad you like the build!

Hey guys! It's been a while, I've been extremely busy preparing my previous project Vintage Reborn for the Dreamhack Casemod Championship that I took part in, so unfortunately I had to take a small break with the Redox build, I'm back and all rested up now so I thought I'd throw out a little update for you guys.

All the scratch cables are done and fits perfectly length-wise, I've also got my hands on a few custom made spacers to hold the radiator and fan brackets as I discovered a few fitment issues with the radiators colliding with my motherboard heatsink, the SSD's have been prepped for modding, my idea is to fill upp the small indent on the design so the surface will be flat, primer and paint then and apply some custom stickers to complement the build. I'd rather not say more about that, you'll have to wait I can tell you that a few more parts will be arriving to the build soon.

Onwards to the pictures!

Wow man! Just wow! What an astonishing job!

Hello there! It's time for a new update, I've been quite busy lately with Christmas coming up and I decided to spend a little bit more of my time with my family and just taking it easy, I'll be getting back on it this week though, starting with a little update!
The SSD's have been disassembled and are recieving a custom finish, the indents that follow the original decals will be filled up and the SSD's will be painted matt black, I will also add a few logotypes on them.
Where we have a few pictures!





















That's all of this little update, I will post a progress update the coming week, Thank you all for following!

Oh gawd ... this vinyl madness with all the modders is making me crazy ... You guys make me want a vinyl printer

It's a cheap and easy way to modify things! I wouldn't recommend vinyl wrapping big parts of the case though, I see that has become a bit of a larger trend, I prefer just using it for certain aspects of the build

Time for a new update! School has been stressful as usual but nothing out of the ordinary, in this update I will be covering the mods on the ssd to fit the theme, as most of you know, Intel 730 series SSD's have an indentation and a soft curve across the ssd, I didn't quite like it and I didn't think it would suit the build so I decided to fill it up, I then sanded down the extras and made sure there was a smooth transition between the filling and the original case. Then I primed the SSD cases and painted them, to complement that I got some custom decals.
Here we have some pictures!






Note that I'm not entirely pleased with the finish of the second SSD so I will be sanding that down and redoing it, meanwhile for the next update I will be showing you how I fastened the fans to the case using the custom spacers, see you next update!

It's time for a new update! My head is filled with ideas to do to the system right now but I had to take a small break to give you guys a quick update before I tear everything apart and continue working. The fan brackets are now fastened to the midplate, they are fastened using M4 screws and a few custom 42mm spacers, these had to be used to give enough clearance from the motherboard to be able to fit a radiator behind the fans, the whole contraption is a lot more sturdy what I expected and should have no problem holding the weight of 2 fans and a radiator.
The spacers will stay in their original aluminium finish to blend in with the other aluminium details, but the brackets themselves will be given an extra touch with some lettering and a few splashes of paint.

Then to the latest addition to the build, the CPU has arrived!
It is no less than a Intel Core i7 5820K CPU that will be powering this build, and it should suit the GPU's just fine once I get to picking the ones I actually want. Here we have some pictures.
The rest I am saving for the next update!
Stay tuned.











That's all for this update, see you all next time!

Hello there! I thought I'd launch another update now while I've got some spare time.
The latest addition to the build is an extremely good looking SLI bridge from EVGA, this has been given it's own special touch to fit the build, pictures will be shown further down.
Roughly a week ago I was sitting and looking at the computer, and I realised that the new backpanel that I made looked a bit dull and could use some touching up, so I decided to stance out the REDOX logo across the panel to make it stick out a bit more, the text would also act as tiny gaps to reveal the backside of the computer, so that you could see the cables running across and the SSD's that I will be mounting on the back fairly soon. It was a tedious job but I think it turned out great, a hundred+ holes later and a few hours with the hand file and it was finished!

Here are the results
