wytnyt Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 The dark backdrop against the white border of the SSDs looks really nice and makes the SSD stand out, but if you add the cover, it just seems off to me somehow... I think its the dark > light > dark, rather than a border it makes the white part look kinda out of place and not part of the design if you get what i mean? Actually I feel the same way,The overall details of the XT really stand out since changing the red to silver and once the Evo's are removed from behind them the lighting will hit the drives much better and ever since hooded has mentioned the wiring poking thru on my res. cover has made me decide to improve it and only leave the res tube showing...

wytnyt Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Looking good man ! Ever since you made the comment about my wiring showing it has constantly bugged me:D: ,since space is terribly limited and I can reduce the huge amount of wiring then I took the next best option and added to my resevoir cover http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3801_zpswxvufoxq.jpg Since I put my Neutrons on the Chamber side,it left me with 2 Evo's and no where to put them so I added a Pcie card and got the Evo's in a raid. This meant I had to paint and redo the rear cover so I decided to make a backplate for the raid card. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3802_zpsxgipku3x.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 I decided to go in a new direction with my case lighting with my career build:D: Ill be removing all the current lighting and adding 2 new panels and modify 2 existing panels. Here is a rough cut of my main chamber panel with 8 leds just tape attached to give a rough idea,this panel with contain a total of 42 leds,The entire build will have 100+ leds,least so far. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3804_zpsf6cp5lqz.jpg Yes the plexiglass has lots of scratches but its being painted my build color The Corsair will remain clear and will show 3 logo images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 I finished the first part of 4 in my new lighting. This is the lower main side that was done,while it appears as the usual lighting,look at the 2nd pic and it shows that the ssd and gpu trim actually light with its own color control... http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3820_zps2zk2oumk.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3819_zps22e2lilz.jpg The wiring strips have their own quick connection for easy removal,the harness for this section consists of 48 soldered points with 2 extra connectors for future expansion...

wytnyt Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 Been a while but soon Ill be buttoning up this build as Im finishing up the lighting after making several changes,I also acquired A white air 540 that I'm in the process of making panels for. Rather than having separate threads I thought Id just combine the two here Here's what the 540 used to look like... http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/air%20540_zpsvwlz40yn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 Been alot of work making the white 540 with trying to find the spare time this is a test of panels while this case only offers space for a few drives,when finished this will have 12,5 3.5 drives,6 ssd drives and a 950 pro for the OS http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3945_zpsampledms.jpg very soon Ill be doing a total redo on my blue 540 that really sets off the lighting also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 just did a test fit to insure the 3 layers of the new back cover will line up properly,needs a little squaring up as i suspect the case isn't fully square http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3933_zpsqoqwtawz.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 This is the center section of the rear cover which houses the leds and mounts 3 Xt ssd's,a farbwerk for the lighting and 2 Aquaero's for fan control. I still need to glue the leds around the ssd's and then start mounting the hardware Once done the leds will monitor every component for temperature. http://s39.photobucket.com/user/wytnyt123/media/IMG_3954_zpsltqtem8h.jpg.html http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3954_zpsltqtem8h.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
