LMAONAISEIs that a Define Nano S? And even if not, is that a fractal? Please elaborate on those mods!
Love the variety of cans you got there

Oct 21, 2017

bjvp182Yes it's a define s nano, I painted the inside white and added the top window, also acrylic on the psu. I'll link you to the build specs and other photos.

Edit: I will expand that it gets a bit hot, the clearance for the GPU is very very narrow, use a blower style card, this one is out of my old rig and is fine for most games but ark plus a 5.0ghz clock on the CPU makes for a hot case under load.

LMAONAISESplendid I will have to plan mine out a bit, I will be doing a custom water loop CPU GPU inclusive so I won't have to worry about the GPU fan style. Prolly going with zotac 1080ti to save space for either bigger res or thicker rad. How did you paint the inside? Tape and spray? Or by hand brush?

bjvp182reply a year later - Did all my cutting and grinding with a dremel tool, had to remove the mesh. Scuffed the areas I wanted to paint with a green or black rough scrub pad, you can probably use the green of a new kitchen sponge (new and dry or it wont cut). Taped, light coats one at a time. I did not paint the inside of the door or ceiling however.

LMAONAISENice I been heavily considering just wasting money on that NZXT AIO and retrofitting it to a custom loop because i just love the look of that cpu block. I even sent an email to NZXT if they sold it separately lol. Maybe if I can find a used one that maybe has a broken res or something.

Aug 20, 2018

bjvp182It can't be very hard to re-purpose one, it's just plumbing after all. Ive seen some good tear down videos but I don't think they were going to reassemble it. How about making a cover for an existing aio using an led ring light? That's probably the safest/cheapest route assuming you already have an aio cooler. Eg. https://www.amazon.ca/EverBright-Multi-Color-Headlight-Daytime-Control-12V/dp/B019C7LZ0U

Aug 21, 2018

LMAONAISEMost likely the route I'll have to take. A simple addressable RGB ring, maybe a frosted plexi ring on the ring to soften the look like nzxt, and a simple dual mirror enclosure. If I had a CNC machine, I could possibly even just fashion a whole enclosure to retrofit on a cheap reliable block. I wanted to also do this with the from panel of my Nano S. Since I saw it on that one inwin case I was like "i want that look!"

Aug 21, 2018

bjvp182Ooooo that's really pretty. If you have access to a 3d printer or are willing to use shapeways you can get a nice precise cover made for the ring light, using a clear or white filament should let light pass through really easy but diffused. You'd can design it on something simple like tinkercad.

Aug 21, 2018

LMAONAISEOh hell yea. I had forgotten that those exist now lol And once I get the block I can easily plug in the measurements to have it fit right on it! Good idea!

Aug 21, 2018

bjvp182Best of luck, I got my printer (creality cr-10) about 6 months ago and have made a lot of fun things, but also simple models that are useful. Most recently fixed the spot on my vacuum where the hose connects, I cant buy the part so short of PVC and duct-tape there is no elegant solution, made the model in tinkercad with no prior modelling experience and it works flawlessly. Headphone hangars, magnetic tool holders, rocket league trophy for a lan party are few of the other things I've printed... it's a great hobby and pushed me to start learning 3ds Max (which I'm currently trudging along through tutorials of :/).
Best of luck

Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?

Greetings, Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...

Big changes coming to my tiny little music room, I've recently purchased a new stack. Currently figuring out where to locate it all and ordering up the necessary cables, it won't be too long before I'm up and running. I am now the proud owner of a brand new stack. It's a European brand called Earmen. Amp, DAC, Streamer & Linear Power Supply. It won't be long!

Recommendation for my next headphone set? I have Koss 95x

Hey all, What would you recommend I get next and why? I have Koss ESP-95x electrostatic massdrop headphones. These are my first and only audiophile set. I love them. I think my only real requirements is $500 or less for the headphones and that they have a little more low end. I don’t need thump but these are really light on lows…but the experience is still awesome. Also any recommendations on an amp? I only have my electrostatic thingy. I am using the Topping D50 DAC. thx!!

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?

I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.
