  1. Project: Pristine Case: Thermaltake Core V1 Mini "White" Hey all, staring my next build based on the Core V1 Mini "white". The concept will be clean modifications, water cooling and assuring all things follow the color scheme of white, clear (acrylic), and chrome. Here are some simple photoshop renderings. Enjoy!
  2. Wrapping up the build!
  3. Some LED's should would top this off nicely!!!
  4. The V21 is for mATX and can support 2 GPU's. There is plenty of space for you to put your build into that case. The exhaust fans should be fine being that they are above the MB I/O's to the back of the case. Check out the previews from Tt... http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002559 I'm sure after viewing that link you will have no concerns... #### in fact I bet you would want to add another GPU!!!
  5. My simple humble build... 6700K Z170N Gaming 5 EVGA 980Ti k|ngp|n TridentZ 3200MHz EVGA GQ 750w 80+ Gold Bitspower WB XSPC Raystorm Pro Red Watercooling parts, etc... LOL
  6. Update: Upgraded the exhaust fans. Double the CFM's so it can pull more heat out of the case. They look great to... Find the ziptie, you win!!!
  7. A small promo video I made of this build... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go_9bfe32LU
  8. So here we go... Good day modder’s, PC artists, overclockers and fellow PC enthusiasts. I would like introduce to you my build… a day dream come true. I call it, the Core V1 Mini k|ngp|n Edition. There isn’t that much back story to this build. It goes like this. I haven’t built myself a PC since 2010. It was bonus time at my company and I was like, what the ####… let’s do it. I muddled around trying to be frugal, but decided to invest into this build a bit. The processor choice bounced around from AMD FX to a core i5. I never really built an Intel machine just because of the cost. This time around, I just went HAM as I’ll future proof this build quite a bit. I wasn’t really looking to water cool it nor was I really expecting the modding bug to bite me so hard in the ####… but it did. And did it put me on a mission. I’ll let the following parts like explain the outcome… LOL Enjoy the build, though I wish I had taken more pics and videos because this case has been modified extensively to make everything work… better than I expected might I add. Along with all of the other one-offs I put into this… So in the end this bug, you know that left me in a state of needing to build build build, also led to me creating a brand that I call… killRMODZ. One thing that I would like to note about my build ethic is that I’m very fond of small form factor builds. Why might you ask? Well because one, it’s a challenge. Two, I don’t like my system to occupy a lot of space… though to each their own. Three… did I mention they are a challenge? LOL My build ethic also includes taking something factory and modify it into something aesthetically pleasing but not to a point where someone cannot reproduce it themselves or for me to create a custom one-off for them. I do have a brand so I apologize if it seems like a sales pitch as that is not my intention. Though I do think there are some mods here that fellow enthusiasts wouldn’t mind getting their hands on. But let us see what the future holds for me. Lastly, I know there are blemishes. You may not see them but I know where they are. I wish I had a CNC Machine and other precision equipment. Also, this is my first time sleeving cable and water cooling. I learn very quickly and thank youtuber’s for their instructional(s)!!! So be gentle with my humble build. A very special thanks to Orlando Laser Engraving (Joseph Visser) for my killRMODZ placards. Site: http://www.orlandolaserengraving.com/ A very special thanks to Kevin MacLeod for the use of his beat “Ice Flow†for my promo video. And I have to especially give thanks to the merchants and vendors from which I was able to obtain my parts for outstanding prices. Access to the vendor’s stores will be under the designated parts… Build: Case: Thermaltake Core V1 Mini http://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-Core-Gaming-Computer-CA-1B8-00S1WN-00/dp/B00M2UKGSM?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 MB: Gigabyte-Z170N Gaming 5 http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-LGA1151-Mini-ITX-Motherboards-GA-Z170N-Gaming/dp/B014W2000Q?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 CPU: Intel i7 6700K http://www.amazon.com/Intel-Boxed-I7-6700K-Processor-BX80662I76700K/dp/B012M8LXQW?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 MEM: G.Skill TRIDENTZ DDR4-3200 PC4-25600 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820232205 GPU: EVGA 980 Ti k|ngp|n… yep, that’s right because I can!!
