Castle Mods Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Some more updates as we pull the cases down. Everything is being removed and nearly all internal pieces will not be used in the final build. The Cases are a lot lighter now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Mods Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Cut the rear panels out. I know its placed on top a small table.. but it still give you an idea of just how big this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castle Mods Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Finally I have had time to get the photos of this build. Sorry for the delay. Here we have the Core X9³ build. Case - 3 x Thermaltake Core X9's Front - Custom made Waterfall (part of the loop) Fans- 27 x Thermaltake Riing 12 Fans in Blue and White Radiators - 6 x Thermaltake Pacific RL480 Pumps - 2 x Thermaltake Pacific P1 Black D5 Fan Controller - Lamptron FC Touch PSU - Thermaltake Grand Power 1200w Water Blocks - 3 x Thermaltake GTX980 Strix Full Cover and 1 x Pacific W1 CPU Block CPU - Intel 5930k Mobo - Gigabyte X99-SOC Champion RAM - Kingston Hyper X DDR4 4 x 8gb 2666mhz SSD - 2 x Samsung 850 Pro 512gb HDD - 1 x 1tb WD Green and 1 x 3tb WD Green GPU - 3 x Asus GTX980 Strix Dan and I have had a lot of fun and a lot of headache with this build. It was definately interesting, 1.5m tall and barely anything remaining from the oringal cases. I would like to thank all the sponsored that helped create this case and also those that helped. Its time to start benchmarking and overclocking, maybe a little bit of gaming to.
