Hello everyone! I'm new in this forum and i'm from Italy. For months i followed the worklogs on this forum, and now i've decided to show you my last work. BLACK & GOLD 600T

• Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2
• Amd FX 8320 (VID: 1,1875 / Clock 3,511 MHz / Idle-Full = 19°C-55°C
• Corsair h100i + Gentle Typhoon AP15 120mm
• Palit GeForce GTX 770 Jetstream 4gb
• Kingston HyperX Beast 16gb
• Corsair AX750 Gold Series
• SSD Samsung Evo 120gb
• SSD Corsair Force 3 120gb (cache disk)
• HDD Segate Barracuda 3Tb

3 months ago i started modding my case (Corsair Graphite 600t SE), by modify some small things as the top mesh, the 5,25 bay cover and an homemade clear side panel.

But after a bit, i wanted to start a real project, so i modeled and fast-rendered an example to follow:

Cut off the 5,2 bay, and varnished all in matte black to cover the imperfections

I started to cover all internal surfaces with carbon fiber effect film, studied a metal grid to attach the SSDs, re-made the interior wall and covered with carbon fiber film...

...and to the grid i cutted an hole in order ro re-utilize the original 600t rubber grommet

I also started to model the side panel in 3D for a remake , and i had fun with 3D compositing

Unfortunately my last pieces were in backorder, but at least arrived the 140mm fan for frontal intake!

Here one of the pecies i like most

A fan hub that i'll link to the original rehobus by changing the original male connectors to female

While i was waiting the last order again, i finished the "home made" clear side panel

I hope you like my workog, and i apologize for my not perfect english ops

And there are the final shots of my completed rig! Introduce you

Hi and a very warm welcome to you AndreaNigo!

It's awesome you took your time to post your build log here! We really appreciate that!

Your rig looks very clean. I like the carbon sheet and the fact, that the heatsinks on the motherboard as well as the applicates on the VGA and the writing on the power supply appear to have the kind of gold.

Btw. do you have some lights in place? If so what color?

Quote: Thank you! There is not much gold in this rig, and i'm not so good with names so for my first mod i decided put the two main colors as name. Maybe the next will be better. For the lights yes, there is a white strip led near to the radiator.

Now i'm changing something because i've switched platform and i went to intel's side, and the colors will be changed

Hi Andrea and welcome on ocaholic

Nice rig but what platform you will use in future? You said Intel but which components? I'm curious

Quote: I've switched to 2011 socket:

• GA-x79-UD5
• i7 4820k
• 16gb dominator platinum 2400mhz
Since i use this PC for 3D Rendering and Animation i needed to go with Intel, also it's in plan to make a hackintosh (to work with different codecs etc), that is difficult and unstable on AMD

Nice good choice!

I will share your rig in "rig of the day" as soon as possible

Wow thank you!

Once i've finished the new rig i'll update the post with new pics
