In December 2012 Justin from Parvum systems asked me if I wanted to do a small build in their new acrylic m-ATX case.
Since I was kinda busy with 2 other projects I helped him with 2 other casemodders (Kier & K.enny) who wanted to do a new build.
Justin still sent me a case for the help also on some adjustments to the design.... and in my favourite color scheme 🙂
At the same time I won an awesome prize in the CooledPC contest.
So made a deal with EKWB I could trade the prize package for products that fit the Parvum case.
Another small build was born.
So decided to make some buildlogs, I just loved the case!
Won't be a huge casemod, more a watercooled build with lots small mods and lots of pics 🙂
Hardware
Intel Core i5 2550K
ASUS Maximus V GENE
ASUS GTX690
Corsair Dominator Platinum 32GB 2133Mhz
Corsair Neutron 240GB 2X
Cooler Master Silent Pro Hybrid 1300W
Parvum had some cool teasers before we got them 🙂
(Top one is for K.3nny)
In the meantime ordered some fans.
And the mainboard.
Was able to buy nice gpu second hand. (partly trade/buy)
In my opinion the best looking reference cooler ever.
Also probably going to use a Pci-e extender in this build.
Ordered UV and blue ledstrips.
And some extension cables.

Thanks a lot and no problem man, also thanks for getting back here : ) Getting something on the market doesn't go that fast, but guess it will pop up on some places when it is.

Is it uv pointed at the fans?
Yes probably.. /%/
Dumb question..
Dumb questions don't exist, dumb answers do : P
I have a small led board with 96 UV leds, that's what I use to get uv active stuff on photo : )
Unpacking!
Always fun : )
Here a huge post with the first impression about the Parvum case.
Justin also sent some extra's, something he wanted to try : )
Something that really made me crazy : P
The case was protected with styrofoam, the case and I were super static loaded....
The inlayed logo
Just had to see those fans running : )
Nice way to find your led board to make some UV shots.
So soldered it the next day.
Personally I like this case a lot cause of the placement for the parts.
Can't wait : )

Here the CooledPC unpacking.
Was able to arrange with Eddy to change the original prizes for products I was able to use in this Parvum build.
Better for both of us 🙂
The cpu that will be used for this build was also in the package.
And some extra aluminum CSQ logo's.
And the watercooling products.
Thanks Eddy & Niko!
