Hanshin Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Hi! It's been a while since my last project! Having moved back to France after 10 wonderful years in Japan, it's time now to do another build. :D No scratchbuild this time like I did with the Hikari Project. My project will be based on the new Corsair case, the 570X RGB. http://i.imgur.com/ZWSLuN3.png Big thanks to all the sponsors of Black Diamond: Corsair, Aquacomputer, CableMod and Silicon Lottery. Here are the specs of this build: - CPU: i7 7700K binned and delidded by Silicon Lottery - Motherboard: TBA - RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4 - PSU: Corsair AX1200i - GPU: Nvidia Titan X (Pascal) - SSD: 2x Corsair Neutron XTi - Case: Corsair 570X RGB - Sleeved cables by CableMod The CPU and GPU will be watercooled, thanks to Aquacomputer. This time again, I'm aiming for a simple but classy look. I hope you will enjoy the trip! Recently, I received some packages. Here is a little preview, more to come soon! http://i.imgur.com/Lp33p7f.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Blake Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Super curious to what you'll do with this. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakesno Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Did you order exact measurements for your cables from Cable-Mod? Do you mind sharing those measurements. 570x requires great cable management. Good luck with your build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshin Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 The measurements I made might not work for you, but I'll give them to you once I receive the cables and I can confirm I didn't make a mistake. :p: I received some packages since last time. Thank you Corsair for the support! http://i.imgur.com/DInlcCY.png http://i.imgur.com/CkYDTYK.png http://i.imgur.com/FVCZBaT.png http://i.imgur.com/ZCddDgu.png http://i.imgur.com/Gxkg8IM.png http://i.imgur.com/oqQFf3b.png http://i.imgur.com/aoJI3Vj.png Another part finally came after much wait. http://i.imgur.com/wFg1zQN.png http://i.imgur.com/feywVsu.png http://i.imgur.com/iEeqC61.png http://i.imgur.com/LasqTrk.png More unboxing to come!

Hanshin Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 Finally had the time to make a little progress on the build! Thank you Corsair for the support. :) http://i.imgur.com/xpEVdSH.png http://i.imgur.com/kad9Weq.png So gorgeous RAM! But it's time to make it fit the theme. After some paint coats later: http://i.imgur.com/YDd1Phh.png http://i.imgur.com/4UjENEw.png http://i.imgur.com/nncycmt.png Another package just showed up too. I can't wait to do some more unboxing soon, thanks to Aquacomputer and especially Sven. http://i.imgur.com/7sdyXTm.png I started working on the case too, but you will have to wait a little more. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshin Posted May 23, 2018 Author Share Posted May 23, 2018 More than a year after, Black Diamond project is back! To be quick, all progress has been lost (except some parts I could save) but with the help of Corsair, project is on rails again. It was the occasion to rethink some aspects of the project. Let's start with the case, the beautiful 570X RGB Mirror Black Edition! New addition to the build, a Corsair M.2 NVMe SSD! Next, the CPU: Silicon Lottery sent me one of their i7 7700k, delidded and ready to be OC'ed. Next step: the custom reservoir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
