Nahhhhhh, its not just a teaser, I have more pics :ass:









i'm still in panning mode and need to chose coolant/sleeving mode

my sleeving will be white with red accent



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

little work on fan

I want to know the result of little idea I have in my head with the fan and I think the results is really great






Corsair need to release these fan in white

what do you think?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

start painting

first phase backplate, little plate on waterblock and power supply
sorry for the pics but I will not bring my camera in my paint booth lolllll :lawl:





second phase will be , motherboard block, icy dock, cpu block with plastidip

and third and final phase will be , Aquaeroe 5 (plasti dip), reservoir support, fan screw and other little thing with primer and real paint

Update:

some items are now painted

First Fannblade case Feet:
WOW! they are nice
and these feet is a must on all build/mods






I painted my CPU waterblock
and a way better than black for my Red Poseidon, imagine with red coolant, again WOW






and finally, GPU backplate, they will be install wirh red screw




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update:

first
i want to Give a big ***FAIL*** to EK

i tried in 2 diferent case and same thing (caselabs M8 and LD PC-V4)
i cant lock the gpu in PCIe slot because the block on GPU sit on Motherboard water block screw......serious??????? why not use the same screw as the plate on GPU (Flat head screw)

pics


and same thing for the second card lolll


i dont have tools to modify tu use flat head screw

anyway
go to Update
some pics











Last Update for this week, need return working on the road for a couple of weeks

i know, no rad are installed but wnat to do a leak test becaus i splited all waterblock and want to be sure no block leak







next steps,
painting 9 more fans
painting 2 x 360 rad
cable management
installing fan and rad
real leak test and done

more update soon

Hi guys

little update on my Red Poseidon

still missing sleeving for USB cable for Aquaero and some little things and a spectacular power cable

but have some pics with rads and painted fans

I put some fan grill, nit sur I will keep them

need your input on this


First, Fannblade Feet with plastidip and red oil-seal, IMHO a perfect match



pics from left, no, right heuuuu, I really don't know witch side is :ROFL:
with a HUGE Strider 1500 and all cable, not enough room for all cable, need to do some magic


other side, relace 3.5 hard drive cage for pump top and pump, you can see my QDC


Top View,ahhh White, red and Black for ROG theme, I love it


this pics is perfect for a EK publicity, I think


I really like EK supremacy painted white with red coolant

some other cool shoot













pretty close to the end of this project

cant wait for new case , and working on new project (Sand of God)
Thanks,

Hey, I love what you've done with this mod.

Are those fans modded and if so, how?!

I'd appreciate any info you can provide. 😄

yes i must say, i am not the guy who likes HW painting in general..

But your computer looks very good, nice taste, and very well completed..

Good stuff..;)

Well after a little research, plasti dip seems to be the secret ingredient. ;D

Looks amazing.

Would've been better if the cards had been the RoG Poseidon cards, but I understand that you can't trust those blocks.
