Hurrikaine (Case Labs S8)

[Akira749]

Time for a new build. Again with CaseLabs and with their new S8!!


This one is called « Hurrikaine » which is the name of the crystal used to fabricate Mace Windu's lightsaber. Sorry for all of you Darkside fans but i'm on the Lightside. After all my name is Luc


The color scheme I'm going with is very neutral. White case, black motherboard, white and dark gray sleeving with purple accent sleeving. All 4 radiators will be painted white.


As always, I hope you’ll like it so here we go!

Hurrikaine (Case Labs S8)

[Akira749]

Here's the first pictures of the case the day I received it

Of course the traditionnal box picture!



The case in all angles and sometimes light saturated (sorry)

[Akira749]

Here's some first picture taken today with the rads, the board and the GPU's in place just to give a general idea.

In a few angles







EVGA motherboard...a first for me but I like the layout and the 90 degrees connectors...ideal on an horizontal setup.



The monsters are in place!





That's it for now!

Dam this is one sweet build!
Awesome case.

[gdesmo]

Damn yes, it sure is !

[Akira749]

I will have a crazy few days with Daz soon when I will pull the trigger on my EK and possibly Bitspower orders

[DazMode]

I have massive BP order incoming, including some new White fittings. So hold on couple days.

I would say I love you but that would be WIERD and CREEPY so I will only say YOU'RE THE MAN!!!!!

LOL, but keeping in mind I put this order against my house equity - this adds some points to the justification of that. I have to go higher quantity than usual to get extra discount from BP. Whte stuff is far from being cheap, so I hope it was worth it.

I'm pretty sure we're going to help you re-gain your equity

[gdesmo]

We will have to make a good effort of liberating those BP parts sir.

Great Case and build

[nass]

ya this should be pretty sweet Akira, looking forward to a great build. Caselabs think will be my next case also, my u2ufo is collecting dust now, moved into the 900d for more rad space, been eyeing the caselabs since then...
