    Steve's Special. Breaking ground


    So here are some preliminary shots of what it looks like right now.
    It is a work in progress, so bear with me.

    This rig will be presented at a trade show in August, so any advice and tips are more than welcome!

    The case will be done in some kind of a Star Wars theme, something to do with an Imperial Stormtrooper, Vader's Tie Fighter or an X Wing Fighter. Not sure yet. I'm working on it right now. Will upload some sketches later this week so you can all give me your opinion and help me decide.

    Steve, once again, thank you very much for everything!

    Next "special" will be something for Paul. Will start work on it by the second week of August. Any requests Paul?

    Well, I leave you with the pics.

    Cheers,

    J

    Very nice Juan.

    Yeah the next one needs one of these - GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 1150 - GA-Z87X-OC Force (rev. 1.0)
    And 2 of these - TITAN - GeForce GTX PC Gaming Graphics Card | NVIDIA UK lol.

    It would certainly be bright with that motherboard and some matching colour watercooling haha.

    Hey Paul, how are you?

    I've been really wanting to try that board out, so maybe we can oblige!
    Regarding the Titans, I would love to do it, but I'm not sure we can afford them yet.. You greedy geek!!! Hahhahaha.
    We'll see.
    An orange water cooling system would rock! Will see what I can find down here.

    Any theme request for the case?

    Cheers,

    Yeah I was only joking with the titans lol, maybe 2 or 3 770's instead.

    Can't really think of a theme but I guess it's gonna be pretty orange :)

    Three 770's seems doable.
    Nevertheless I'd love to do the Titan SLI.
    Will see if we can get someone to sponsor the rig and chip in the Titans.
    A 690 would be nice too, don't you think so?

    Cheers,

    It will certainly be an awesome rig, what do you think about Case colour with the orange theme?

    And the 690 is too old school now haha.
