Project: Corsair Graphite 600T MbK

[madebykier]

Hello my name is Richard aka Kier
I'm an enthusiastic modder from the Netherlands
This is my first post overhere, and hope you like my skills

To much time and a little addicted………………… this gives me the opportunity to start another build
This time the great Corsair Graphite 600T. Love this case, nice shape and good quality
The hardware i’m gonna use:
Case: Corsair Graphite 600T
Motherboard: Asrock Z68 extreme 4
CPU: i5 2500K
GPU: Asus GTX 580
PSU: Coolermaster Silent pro M 1000W
And more………………this will been shown in the progress
Offcourse there wil be watercooling

Out of the box

Ofcourse right away disassembling the Corsair
Taken off the front

 

[madebykier]

There is a plastic rim on the front which also came off, maybe i'm gonna do something with it

Back is removable also

And the top

Nice panel

 

[madebykier]

And the case without the plastic

Oww almost forgot, the hdd racks are easily removable

Almost nothing left

First modification. For this i've used
3M Di-Noc CARBON FIBER FILM

First done the control panel and the narrow strips on the sides

After that did one sidepanel with the carbon film

 

[madebykier]

For now this was the start, more to come when I have some more hardware

Grtz.

 

[Interitus]

Can't wait to see it finished. Love your black and yellow TJ11

 

[madebykier]

Great, you've seen the TJ. Good to hear

 

[footballrunner800]

I have the white version of this case. Great Case to work with. Looking forward seeing it finished!

 

[RussianSensation]

Looking forward to your unique design!

I really like this large window mod on the 600T btw:

 

[madebykier]

Hmm, that was a suprise
But that's the window I'm gonna use

 

[RussianSensation]

Hmm, that was a suprise
But that's the window I'm gonna use

Oops, sorry. I was just in "love" with the aesthetic look of the full window mod I saw on their forum for this case:

Hi, my modding friends
Today I did some nice things to the 600T
For this I have 2 Black Ice GT Stealth 240 rads

And Coolermaster has given me 4 very good fans. Turbine Master Mach 0.8

I'm going to place 2 of these on top of the 600T

Need to take of the cap for the mesh panel otherwise it don't fit

Beneed the Turbine masters I am gonna place 1 black ice rad

The other two turbine nasters are coming in the front

 

[madebykier]

Going to place the second rad inside

It dont fit, so have to cut a piece out of the bay

Back to the top again. I think it's not finished..............so it's acryl time
For this IT-service has send me a beautiful piece of 5mm UV blue acryl [/URL]

Marked for cutting

And cut it

Cut the little pieces out

Still need to file this

And it fits

Mesh cover placed

 

[madebykier]

Did the cutting with my hightech fretsaw

Without the tape. Hmm looks like .....................

And placed the Turbine masters

The idea is to past black film over the acryl with blue lines visible
That's it for this weekend, greetings to you all :thumb:

 

[RussianSensation]

It's looking great!

 

[Interitus]

Your incredible work with acrylic always amazes me. Your cuts are always so clean and perfect, even with the dremel.

Keep up the great work!

Builds like this inspire those of us like me, with lesser skills and tools, to take chances and think outside the box.

 

[madebykier]

Thanks you guys

Last week a received a very nice package from IT-Service

Thanks Eddy's
First the great motherboard: The ASRock Z68 Extreme4

 

[madebykier]

Two kits Corsair 4 GB DDR3-1600 Kit

and the beautiful Intel[/URL]® Core™ i5-2500K

The big ASUS ENGTX580 DCII/2DIS/1536MD5

 

[madebykier]

And a nice Sony Optiarc AD-5260S-0B

I'm not only showing you good products but have also done some work
The front. I want to give the same looks as the top, with acryl and 2 CM fans. The plastic front

 

[madebykier]

Here I have cut away the middle bar

Sawn a piece of 5mm blue acryl

And again the same as the top..........sawn the two fans

Made the slot for the dvd

Removed the tape

 

[madebykier]

But we're not there yet, transparent is not what I want. That's why I have used black film to make small borders, later on with light

Paste tape again

Now I have cut out a 5mm line

Removed all the tape

 

[madebykier]

Between the DVD and the fan is coming a bay reservoir with the blue acrylic as res window
That's it for today my friends

 

[Fallen Kell]

Wow... That is all I think I can say! That is a really nice looking case at this point even!

 

[madebykier]

Update !!!
Did my first cutting in the 600T this week
The 2 fans in the front

And the slot for the in/ outlet radiator

Also drawn the top fans

And after some dremel power

Also past black film on the top acryl

And slide out the same lines as the front panel

Put everything together

 

[madebykier]

The fans in the front

And the outlet from the rad with just enough space to put the fittings in

The 600T how it's gonna be

 

[zokudu]

This looks amazing great work.
