The peppermint machine

[vieuxchnock]

I've ordered that::

1 Bitfenix Prodigy Green:

2 Black window side panel:

1 front mesh black panel:

And this board: Gigabyte G1-Sniper-M5



I will fit a Matx board horizontally in a mini itx case

[snef]

Good mod,
Cant wait to see more

[Father Fuzzy]

you know the new Prodigy M is out

and the board will fit from the start

but cutting is alot of fun

[Relikar]

Let me know how you change the other side panel, I'd love to put a window in mine.

It,s because I want my board horizontally to see the liquid from the video card. And ,as you say, cutting is fun

I will install the switch somewhere else.

That's not the only problem with putting the side panel on the other side. The window isn't centered so you can't just flip the one made by Bitspower upside down and put it on the other side, It'll look quite silly imo.

I'll be waiting to see what you come up with because all I can think of is cutting it manually and installing a piece of plexiglass.

This is going to be an awesome mini beast of a build Prodigy with insane amount of rads

[MRDcanadian]

nice choice of color sir, looking forward to see what you will do with it.

Look on the 2 pictures of a right side of a Prodigy with a left window panel.(Build by newstalgia)
I really think it is not too bad.






You can see the temperature sensor under the board

[Relikar]

Yeah but I'm somewhat of a perfectionist, even though my work doesn't show it, and something like that would drive me insane.

[vieuxchnock]

Not me!

[vieuxchnock]

I'm beginning a new build on a Prodigy base modding a Matx board in the Mini Itx case horizontaly to see the coolant of the video card by the side window.

Hardware:

Case: Bitfenix Prodigy Mint Green : Check
Mobo Gigabyte G1 Sniper M5 : Check
CPU: Haswell 4770K * * * * * * * * * * * To order
Video cards: *Crossfire HD7950 : *Check
SSD *OS:Samsung 840 Pro 240 Go *: *Check
SSD Games: OCZ RevoDrive 230 Go PCIe X4 : Check
PSU :XFX 750W Black Edition Full Modulaire *: Check
RAM : Kingston Beast 2X8 Go 2133 * Check

For the watercooling,nothing is set yet depending of the space available. But it will be CPU, Crossfire et Ram all in rigid acrylic tubes and Primochill fittings 3/8-1/2 with Mayhems Pastel mint green.
Sleeving will be green and black and all the wires cut to fit exactly to save space.

Pictures and follow up later.
