Build: Obsidian Carnage

Hello Readers from the ROG Forum,

I'm building a new system for myself with the new Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z, the Obsidian Carnage.

My name is Stef (eng: Steve) and I'm from Holland and living in a town called Enschede.



It will be a Game-PC with a fat OC tuning! I didn't want a big tower so I looked arround for a mid tower. With this mATX motherboard, a Big Tower will lose the effect on a little motherboard. And there will be to much space. Space I don't want or need. So that why I bought the Corsair 650D.

I wanted a nice Case with fine lines in it. No "tierelantijnen" so as we call it in dutch. Corsair Obsidian 650D.



This build has no known plan, and I am still figuring out what to tho with this 650D. So I will update every once a while. I'm not gonna bother you anymore with lame text. See for yourself.

And for just a little modification, I made the stickers for the RAM with aan ROG look.

There they are.


The first one done 😄


and the rest..


And this is how it looks on an Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z.


(Space for more yummies)


I build it already, just to see how it looks and if the parts will fit, but I need the time for more inspiration to modify the 650D. Here are some pics.

















Stay Tuned for more!

But the 650D works great for me.

Thanks! I wanted to keep de theme Obsidian, because it is black. I runned the coolingsystem with Blood Red Coolant, but liked de Black Tubing more.

I'm thinking about a red Carbon at the backside of the case where the Mobo is attached to. De Black is now to much.. I think.
