    I want to thank everyone for following this project!
    For me personally it was quite a challenge.
    First of all because of the available free time I had next to my job and family.
    But specially to create a 'Desk PC' below $400 of material. (2xP5 + tools + glass + mounting)
    All this with standard tools like a jigsaw, drill, ironsaw, file and sandpaper.
     
    So here's my contribution to the Thermaltake CaseMOD Invitational 2016 Season 1
     
     

     

     











     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     
     
    Finally I had 20 minutes to enjoy DOOM
     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     
    A huge thanks goes out to all followers, sponsors and off course Thermaltake for making all this possible!
     

     
    ps. Should I make a little video too?

    Hi guys, I would like to thank Thermaltake and all the sponsors for inviting me to this competition and making this project possible. It's been challenging at times, I was hit with many delays, but got there in the end!
     
    The finished build photos are below. I'll also post a loop fill video as soon as I finish editing it!
     
    I hope you like what I created - Project p5yche, a twin Core P5 mod.

    Sawing, sanding and polishing.

    Finally the last fittings also arrived.
     

     
     
    So I could finish the last part of the loop.
     

     

     

     
     
    And testing if everything still works ..
     

     
     
    Time to fill it up
     

     
     
    Always exciting
     

     
     
    Not a single leak
     

     
     
    Next thing is also very exciting ... is the hardware still working?
     

     
     
    Awesome when you see on first boot "CPU Fan speed error detected"
    That's good
     

     
     
    And so the glass panel goes up
     

     
     
    Chair also fits perfectly
    One last small update and then ... final pics!

    And another update!
     
    Almost used all the fittings.
     

     
     
    But glad some extra are on the way.
     

     
     
    So first some more cable management.
     

     
     
    So also the Displayport, keyboard and mouse cable.
     

     

     
     
    Done!
     

     
     
    Checking if everything still works.
     

     

     
     
    Also received a flowmeter to check out.
     

     
     
    Funny mirroring seen from bottom.
     

     
     
    I guess white isn't too bad either.

    The loop. Finally!
     
    First some pads underneath the GPU's
     

     
     
    And the first fittings and pipe
     

     

     
     
    Works like a charm
     

     

     

     
     
    Should become something like this.
     

     
     
    But still lots to do.

    I'm working with several controllers for fans and lighting and want to have them in groups.
    Fans - Top lighting - Bottom lighting
    Need multiple cables and extensions from side to side through the 'powerbar'
     

     
     
    Like this
     

     

     
     
    Also want some cable managements, all extra cable out of sight in the P5
     

     

     
     
    Done!

    More drilling, cutting, filing and sanding.
     
     

     
     
    Came up with an little idea to bring 12V for fans, pump and lighting to the right side of the desk. 
     

     
     
    Picked up the laminated glas panel for the Tt d3sk.
     

     
     
    Also picked up something awesome to complete this desk setup
     

     
     
    Back to the 'powerbar'
     

     
     
    2 molex lines directly from PSU to the right side.
     

     
     
    Some wire management inside the P5
     

     
     
    Test
     

     

     
     
    Shortening the massive steel poles which will hold the glass panel.
     

     
     
    I just found out where my safety glasses were
     

     
     
    Few to go.
     

     
     
    Going to test the hardware without liquidcooling. Very excited!
     

     

     
     
    I never thought about the ROG logo from the Asus PG348 ... normally it shines ON your desk ... 
    I like the effect!

    I planned the whole weekend for measuring, cutting, drilling, filing, sanding etc
     

     

     

     

     
     
    Ahh yes .. what I've been waiting for!
     

     
     
    One arm should be able to hold 63kg.
     

     
     
    Not much left of the internals.
     

     
     
    Bottom shot
     

     
     
    So lets cut! (tried the dremel once again .. screw that)
     

     

     

     

     
     
    Cover plate for right side of the desk where normally the mainboard goes
     

     

     

     
     
    More filing needed
     

     
     
    And holes
     

     
     
    Also countersinking the PSU
     

     

     

     

     
     
    Sorry, I don't like stickers ^^
     

     
     
    Rads also more inside
     

     
     
    More holes, drilling and sanding.
     

     
     
    Just had to test the fans

    The P5's

    Plenty of pump power.
     

     

     
     
    Reservoirs
     

     
     
    Lots of fans.
     

     
     
    Cpu and Strix blocks
     

     
     
    Not sure yet if and how much I will use it, but a bending kit
     

     
     
    It will be a mixture of PETG and nickelplated brass
     

     
     
    All unpacked
     

     

     

     

     
     
    So shiny!
     

     
     
    The gaming gear! Off course needed to complete a desk.
     

     
     
    First steps, mounting the fans.
     

     
     
    And sleeving the pumps.
     

     
     
    Just trying to imagine myself how it would look.
     

     

     
     
    Sawing mounting rails for the desk
     

     
     
    Will be using regular shelve holders to mount the desk to the wall

    Hi everyone!
     
    Let me first introduce myself
     
    I’m Peter Brands, 35 years young and from a little town in the middle of The Netherlands called Urk.
    I’m an electrician, and mostly active on trawlers, vessels and luxury yachts.
    I’ve been an online gamer and hardware enthusiast since 1995 where I got my online nick ‘L3p’ and started modding in 2009.
    Some might know me from my desk-pc builds ‘L3p D3sk’ and 'Cross Desk' or scratch build ‘L3pipe’.
     
    I have to admit I'm not really a competitive casemodder, more a passionate liquidcooling enthusiast.
    But with the Tt P5 and the idea I have as you can see in the banner I just couldn't resist

    Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates the past few days, been so busy working every day until midnight to get this PC complete so i hope you all understand. I have the footage recorded so i will eventually get it done. But for now here is a sneak picture of where i am at. I used a pencil to draw up the panel lines then etched the whole thing top and bottom with the dremel and it took a #### tonne of time but well worth it.
