[Project Log] DNABOX - INTRO Pissing Intel Dec 4th, 08, 10:36 AM #1 (permalink)
Ladies and gentleman's! Things have been too busy to set aside a lot of time. Well, most of the parts I have collected so far is ready. There is still the custom faceplate, backplate, LCD w/custom mount and a bunch of things that need to get fabricated. I will be detailed later with a lots of photo shot! Sorry for the delay.

Please go easy on me as I'm very new [noob] on this area ... especially on water cooling. I’ll try to focus on the stuff that I think may be of interest. Taking photos is my hobby ... please don’t hesitate to ask and I’ll answer your question as best I can. Alright, time to work!, on with the build.



"DNABOX"

The above name is the brainchild from my previous system that I already done a major upgrading - Three times EVOLVING!. - seemed appropriate considering the context of the this build. Thanks to Bro Bianco for the idea of the HELIX sign!!

The main inspirations and ideas [POISON]:
* MurderMod - http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=187306
* and a lots more @ http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/index.php?


Now before I get into more details of this log I would like to thank the following sponsors of this build:
My Credit Card
My loving partner!

And a special thanks for the guidance and time:

* FROZE
* ALPHA1MA
* and all the VRZoner
