[First Build] Cooler Master HAF 932

[Jim Weist]

Hey there fellow Cooler Master modders! I have been working on finishing my first mod. When I first started I didn't think to correctly photo for a work log. So for this build its starting at the beginning of the water loop I'm installing. I have my build on a couple other forums, bit-tech and OCN, and I figured I would put it here because its a Cooler Master case and I changed it up quite a bit. Ill start my photos from the current set up and photos from the modding I did over the last week, putting on the finish trim pieces, before I install the loop in about 2 weeks. The reservoir in the photo was sent back because it had too much of a pink color to it and didn't match my build. Here are the components list and some photos.

My components are as follows:
*CPU: Intel 3930k 6-Core LGA 2011
*CPU Cooler: Corsair H80i
*MB: Asus Rampage IV Exreme
*RAM: 8 Gb Corsair @ 1600Mhz
*GPU: 2x Evga 480 GTX in SLI
*PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 1050W
*SSD: Samsung 840 Pro 256 Gb
*HDD: WD 10000 rpm Raptor 140 Gb
*OPTICAL: LG Bluray Burner
*Case: Cooler Master HAF 932 *Modified

This photo was taken before a week ago when I made the rim

 

This is a view with the custom side panel window I made. Its from before I installed the trim and thumb screws as well.



Well i think I brought you up to speed on my HAF 932, Ill update here soon as I install my water loop and get everything in order. Thanks for checking out my rig I hope you like it! If you do be on the look out, Im going to be starting a N200 or HAF XB micro ATX mod after this is complete, I already have quite a bit of ideas planned out and I might even start the case work before this water loop is done because I hate not having a project to work on while waiting for parts.=D Modding is my new found passion for sure.

Here is the final update of the build where I added the actual water loop to it. It will be a 2 part update and then I have a final photo set of the build.

Sorry for the larger size, I was a noob when I uploaded these and didn't change the resolution.

Here is the final photo set I took of the HAF932 I named Kubrick. Its not bad for my first noobie adventure into PC modding.!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's it for this one. Check out the next project I did called "Grey Matter"! I have made vast improvements in my skills with tools, in my photography, and in my work log quality! Here is a link for the 2013 Cooler Master Case Mod Competition worklog. The one in my signature is for Bit-tech.net.

Well Enjoy and take care!

Thanks bud! I appreciate the feed back, this build kinda got lost a bit, I made I think 3 work logs but there were pretty shotty because it was my first time. I did a lot of research on the whole process of modding and work logs and got up to speed when I made my Grey Matter project. I am glad someone came back and recognized this project because for me this is where it all started. I think one day I will come back and resurrect this build with my new tools and skills I have gained.
