That’s it then, we are done, here it is! The Pure Base 500DX on launch day with a completed revamp of our Pure Pastel Build! We cannot thank be quiet! enough for getting this case to us before release. As a showcase build, the specs are as following; be quiet! Pure base 500DX be quiet! Pure...

Pastel DX is really getting close now, we have our pump and reservoir in place and have our TeamGroup SSD fitted. I have started to run the tubing, but there's not much to run, to be honest with the longest part being a single 90 from the GPU to the radiator. We have used a combination of...

New parts have landed! TeamGroup was kind enough to send over 4x 4 GB Delta RGB DDR4 3000 in white for this build along with a pair of their Delta RGB 5V SSDs at 250 GB capacity. We have worked on loads of projects with TeamGroup now and love both the look and performance of their products...

Time for another update as we move on with the revision of Pure Pastel. We have been stripping down the old system so there are no glory shots here as we just needed to get things moving along quite quickly. We soon got to the point of having both Pure Pastel and the new DX case stripped and...

Ever since we took delivery of the be quiet! Pure Base 500 we have loved it and used it for our recent Pure Pastel build. Not long after we started the project did we hear that there would be a Pure Base 500DX coming, an improved version of the case with some small changes, in particular to the...

Ha! Bonus bud if you have the gear, why not use it! Delayed on this, I screwed up the front cover plate so I need to do that again plus have another project I need complete by the end of the month. I only started that today but there will be a build log coming for it later on.

Thanks bud, you got some great pics coming out too. I use my S9+ for photos, could do with a DLSR. All my projects can be found at www.mod83.com

Over the last few days, we have made some great progress on this build. We now have our hard lines fitted and once filled, gave the system a solid 24 hours to ensure we had no leaks. Coming from the pump into the bottom of the Alphacool block did throw up a small snag. The fitting wouldn’t...

Sorry to Alphacool as that's what has gone out in the forums due to translation :) I like it, we just need a Twirl or a Flake in the top to make it a proper Ice Cream :) In fact, Metro or Dave, send over another and I will make an Ice Cream in all that acetal goodness, take photos and post them...

Time for a smaller update on this project. Our EVGA X299 Micro is now in place and the DG-77 is really now starting to take shape. We have our hard-line runs in mind for the CPU loop given that we are sticking with an air-cooled, vertical GPU. We know a vertical air-cooled GPU is not ideal and...

Still problems at the moment, as I say it's not what I had in mind for this build, way off in fact. It's ok though, I took a look at what I had in stock here and I think it will work given the scope of the project for EVGA. I need this done and stripped down though as I will need the radiator...

Thanks Metro! Yeah, it does look good. I was going to paint it but didn't want to ruin it for future projects :) Given the state we are all in I had to get something out at least. Although there are compromises on this build I wouldn't put it together unless I thought it would work and risk...

More unboxings today and fitting of the main components that will run this system. TeamGroup is working with us once again and we will be using 4 x 4 GB of their Delta RGB 3000 MHz RAM. The colour scheme fits in nicely and will provide a good base for this system. Our motherboard is the EVGA...

Time to take a closer look at some more parts that we have for this build plus bring you some more on the painting of the DG-77. For the CPU, Intel was kind enough to send over an i9 9960X boasting 16 cores and 32 threads. The max turbo is 4.4 GHz and it will complement the EVGA X299 Micro...

Time to tear down the EVGA DG-77 then, we had already started on this as part of the Team Green build but now we have a new plan. There's plenty for us to strip down here including a top, front and rear plastic fascia panels. We will be using a MATX board in the X299 Micro and a vertical GPU...

The past few months have been amazing for Mod 83, first, our Ghostbusters build featured at EGX on the ASUS stand, we placed third in the Bit-tech Mod of the Month with Pure Pastel and also won the EVGA Gear Up Program late in 2019. Originally we had decided upon an RTX and Nvidia based build...

No problem :)

Hey Metro, sadly due to the ongoing issues surrounding Corona virus I have not been able to make any progress on this one, even to confirm other partners. Also, the Alphacool parts for our Team Green build that will be recycled into this are still on hold as far as I know. I have lent the P120...
