Hey guys and welcome to my new build log, PARVUM FORMULA!
This is a special build I am doing for a mate of mine and I'm very excited to build in a Parvum case.
Thanks a lot to Primochill and Mod/Smart for offering to provide goodies for this build as well as Icemodz who have been very good to me for a while now. Parvum will also provide some custom accessories for the build.

The colour scheme of the build will be black, red, and grey. The case is reverse ATX with a nice windows on top and one in the back to show the SSD. I will also be doing some custom vinyl work on the case.
Here are the renders provided by the boys over at Parvum:
I do currently have the case though I am waiting for another panel before I can showcase it.
In the mean time here are some shots from Parvum while they were making the case 🙂
Hope you guys will enjoy this build log!

Hey guys,
I know I haven't touched this build log for a while now but things should start picking up from here.
Here's the case 😄
You can see all the inlays where I will be adding vinyl for detailing 😄
First time putting together a Parvum case and first time seeing one and I gotta say I am very impressed.
The quality is top notch and the felling of getting the case flat packed and assembling it is just awesome and very easy to do.
It's a very unique and different looking case indeed and the boys over at Parvum have turned my paint drawings into a masterpiece.
Can't wait to start building in this case.
If guys are interested in a Parvum case, now is the time. With the launch of their ITX case the boys are offering a 20% discount store wide, so jump in while it's on :D.

Hey guys,
Here are some more pics of the case and I also received the motherboard for the build.
Have to do something about the upside down ROG logo with this reverse ATX layout.
However a big surprise was waiting underneath and seems like I can't just flip the existing badge as that will show this hole underneath.
So lucky for this case badge that came with the motherboard.
All cleaned up, looking nice!
Thanks for checking it out!
Just to let you guys know that this build might be moving along pretty slowly as it all depends on my mate's budget in getting the rest of the components.

Hey guys,
Here's a quick look at the memory going into the system. 16GB of G.Skill Trident X 2400Mhz.
Those stickers will probably come off to make the memory fit in with the build a little bit more, it is a good looking kit though.
Love this view from the top window!
Vinyl is on the way for this build so should get the vinyl work done pretty soon.

Hey guys,
Here's another update on the Parvum Formula build!
A quick look at the fans and radiators going in the build. You can also see the inside layout of the build with most of the components in, very well thought out with not much wasted space. I love a case in which you can fill every corner!
2 x 80mm fans for the back of the case!
These radiators were purchased second hand, some mounting holes will need to be re-tapped. Think I'm gonna do all of them with an M4 thread.
Thanks for checking it out!

Hey guys,
We now have a PSU! The EVGA Supernova 850 G2.
I love the textured look of it!
Need to get the window on in the back here!

Hey guys,
I have a quick new update on this project, like I said at the start, this one might take a while so it's going slowly but steady 😄
The boys over at Parvum Systems were kind enough to provide these custom made fan grills that will surely be a nice addition to the build and they also match the rest of the fan mounting holes on the case.
Remember guys, Parvum can make and cut anything out of acrylic and pretty sure other materials too so if you ever need anything custom done, give them a buzz and they might be able to help you out!
Check out the fan grills!
Two are for the 240 rads and one for the two 80mm fans on the back of the case.
Thanks for checking it out!
If you have seen the latest Mod of the Month round here on Bit-Tech, you might have noticed my other ongoing project TOXIC CHROME has been nominated. Please head here to check it out and show some love 😄
