Resized Image

Hey guys It's me again! I'm making a build for cooler master case modding competition, this time the past project called Project 45Deg will on pause for a while. I just need to concentrate for this new project and I got only few days to finish it. And it is my first time to join the event, my build is a little inspired with gundam toys. Astray, I caught that name on a gundam toy. And I know that I got only a few weeks to finish this build, I hope that I can make it to the finals.

Here are the specs.

Processor: Intel i5 6600k @4.6
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VIII Ranger Z170
Memory modules: Avexir Red Tesla 4x4GB 2666mhz @3200mhz
GPU: Asus GTX 970 Strix DCUII
Case: Cooler Master MasterCase 5 Pro
PSU: Thermaltake DPS G Platinum 1200watts
SSD: OCZ Trion 150 240gb

Thermaltake Custom Water Cooling:

First of all I would like to thanks to all of my sponsors who make this possible..

Hey guys! I will paint these motherboard heatsinks into white.

I just removed the ROG aluminum logo

Goodbye labels

Paint...

Now I finished the north bridge heatsinks, why just only the north bridge I've done today? because I need to buy some piece of acrylic sheet for the south bridge logo.

Now here is the result. I made some custom vinyl stickers for detailing and not get bored with the plain paint.
