Hey guys,

 

As an early "moaner" and requester of this case, Corsair finally heard our prayers :D I'm going to update this rig build.

 

Here is the configuration :

Got the first Case here in France :D. Absolutely monstrous ! I began to mount the first watercooling elements i had in stock, so 7 Corsair HD120 and 1 Alphacool Monsta Rad 360mm for the top, in push pull. First problem, the obsidian comes with a 3x140mm fan tray at the top, and i only want 120mm rads, and the tray is not yet avaible. I had to modify the original tray to mount a 4x120mm, quite a tricky work, but it worked and i think it is a clean job after all. Here you got the first pictures. Cable management will be very hard, with the 24 rgb Fans, I have to have 4 commanders pro.

Waiting Now for the 60mm front Rads and the "last" 15 HD120 RGB Fans, Watercooling fittings, PCIe Riser. In the end, i want to base my build on Corsair Original Concept Slate, but with thicker rads, Dual Loops, SLI, and X299, like that :

My wallet hurts looking at this, though looks like it is going to be a great build! I love the HD-120 for the high static pressure and cool look. I have 3 of them myself. I assume you are going to do push/pull based off your rad selection as the monsta preforms a lot better under push/pull, due to the thickness. I also like your choice of motherboard, seems like everyone gets ROG fever! If you want to have your RGB on the board to match the HD-120 a couple of us wrote a tool that changes the Motherboards LEDs based off the game you are playing. Still in beta, if you are interested.

Godspeed and best of luck with the build. I look forward to seeing the results. We've built a few 1000Ds in the office and the sheer size and scope of what you can cram inside of it takes a bit to adjust to. :)

Any chance you can let us know how you are hooking up the fans on all those CoPro's? Or let me know? LOL. I plan to do what you are doing with three less fans on top, and only a push config in the front.

 

6 fans per copro, and 1 fan rgb hub Per copro. So 4 copro total for me, to run the 24 hd fans and 2 corsair rgb strips

Very lucky to see the complete post, if I had seen this post when the build was incomplete then I would be facing so much anxiety till it was complete. I enjoyed this so much, I am jealous and my wallet just blew up looking at it :P
