Herroooooo everyone. It is almost time for Insomnia I55 in august 2015 and before Computex 2015 I have been asked by Thermaltake Europe if I was interested in doing a project for them to put on display. :thumb:
Of course my ego was all over the place and I was hovering 50cm above the ground as I love doing these projects and I love being asked by brands so I said F**K YEAH!
The project was quite straight forward: we use the new Suppressor case, add all parts Thermaltake does like fans, PSU and all of their watercooling equipment and make something that is worth looking at.
Perfect assignment for men. Keep it simple. I can understand this.
I still had some hardware at home and for other stuff I contacted a few people I worked with before. And before I knew it this thing was on a roll.
I need to finish this project like 2 weeks from now. So I figured I should start a log about what I have been doing for the last couple of weeks since I have everything.
This will be a short log I think with rather large photo updates. I hope you will enjoy.
 

 
First of all I want to thank Thermaltake and Martin in particular for the opportunity.
I have a bunch of photos of the unboxing of the new case ending in a photo of the front panel being taken apart both with the screwdriver and a saw to create something I will show you later on
 
Don't worry there will be a LOT of modding involved in updates coming later on.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
OUT!!! All of you!!!
 

 
I have a rather cool (I hope) idea for the front end. I want to keep the lining and shape of the original case intact but still make its appearance different.
 

As your "handler", may I just say that this turned out far better than I could ever hoped? It looks amazing when turned on (especially the front) and was a real eyecatcher. Lots of people at Insomnia 55 asked "Where can I buy this?"

Here are some finished photos during daylight.

really like the layout and how you used the P1 standalone pump with the 2 res's.
 
Came out great man!

Then it was time to fill the loop and leaktest it
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This delivery I received later. The waterblock to use and fittings for 16mm hardline tubing and about 6 meters of Thermaltakes own 16/12 mm PETG tubing.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
I am arriving at the point where I can finally start fitting some hardware.
Thanks Martin for the emergency package.

Onwards with some more plexi work
 
First off the small window for over the rear SSDs. This is there to protect the SSDs from people that like the ones too much that are fitted to the rear of this project. I tried to somehow keep some lines from the inside involved in this.
I polished up all edges of the window.
 

 

 

 
Next up another piece of acrylic. This time for the mounting of a single HyperX SSD. I tried to make the shape of the paintjob resemble the X on the SSDs. This will be mounted behind the motherboard tray with a doorwindow so it is always visible.
 

 

Fitted some of the goodies
 

 

 

 

This delivery I received later. The waterblock to use and fittings for 16mm hardline tubing and about 6 meters of Thermaltakes own 16/12 mm PETG tubing.

Thanks Martin for the emergency package.

I made a bracket to fit the GPU vertically so it will be right in front of the window.
 
Here I have painted the font and rear grill. I cannot paint the PSU shroud yet because it still needs holes for cables and tubing. I couldn't wait to see how it would look with the fans turned on so I tried the rear fan. The biggest conclusion is that the photo does not show what the real deal looks like for sure.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was getting such a positive response on Facebook and I was liking the outcome of the PSU shroud so much I decided to take the theme further and also make a front and rear fan grill using the same grill design. Again drawn with Djangosoe and lasercut and then bent using hot air from a heatgun.
 

 

 

 

 

 

A quick peek at the hardware going into this baby. I will show it off better at a later stage.

I had been thinking about what to do as a mod with this case. It will be on display to promote the case so I don't like to cut it up or melt it and make it unrecognisable. So the inside of the case is imprtant to me. I somehow came up with the idea to use covers that work as cover-grill-windows
 
The grills will be over the fans for air, the grill will be transparent so you can also see through them like a window and the parts that don't need seeing I will paint black.
Here is my first one. The biggest of them all for over the PSU that runs from left to right in the case. I made a design with my good friend Django, had it lasercut and then bent it using hot air.
