I figured since the internet calls me a shill anyway I'm at least look the part I got new merch it's available now crowd me calm /jc sense we got zip up hoodies we got tri-blend we got a new logo I digress since 2012 it's a big risk logo you guys been asking for that anyway well guys live it up we can all kinda stuff zip up hoodies have beanies polos don't take my word for it cuz obviously I can't do this ad so just look in the description below and you guys will find the link Thanks so this is the white define our 601 we use in our ad where we put the slick wraps white front panel on this and I thought to myself this box this this box gave me inspiration I've been wanting to do a white build but I hadn't been able to decide like how I wanted to go about it then the amazing appearance that is the Titan r-tx card although extremely overpriced extremely impractical unnecessarily existing enter any sort of analogy here that you would like the fact that we ended up with two of these I just I wanted to do something with them and not just have them sit on the shelf we've already talked about the fact that they are not a gaming card they although they're the same exact architecture is the gaming card they came out with but I digress I found the box extremely inspiring and I went what if I did a white and gold build well they actually had an r5 white and gold edition so I kind of decided to make my own r6 and yesterday I did some painting and stuff and I decided I'm going to make a video about this I wasn't planning on making a video very rarely do I do anything computer related around here I don't make a video but I thought you know what I'll go ahead and share it with you guys we took this box and that's our inspiration so I painted some pieces already that I'll show you guys and we're gonna paint some more cuz I wanted to sort of proof of concept to see if I could come anywhere near the colors of the card so we went to Lowe's and I found this Kryolan fusion which I've had a lot of success with and some of my mods it holds well it's a to paint and a primer so you can usually paint it directly onto a surface although it's not gonna be the most durable if you don't prep the surface I thought the color looked close enough to the backplate and in between the polished and the or the Sutton okay we could probably get away with it and then I compared it to the box and I went that's pretty damn close and of course Phil being the super-smart guy that he is was like yeah but the color gold on the box isn't the color gold of the card and I was like let me have this just let me do this so these are the pieces that I painted to kind of give us our gold accents here and as you can see compared to the Titan cards they definitely flow well enough in the gold color family and even my table you see I spray-painted my table cuz I'm done so where this gave me the accents and colors that I wanted I was kind of torn on this front piece here because we are going to be doing water cooling we're not gonna water cool the graphics cards oh no we're not doing that because of the fact that we're using the cooler as inspiration and you know there's no reason why we need to water cool them because it could have been a 20 atti then for all that matters and all those blocks are silver or nickel-plated so I mean I could have gone with the copper but this is not a copper build this is a gold build and when we took this and we sort of helped this in here we were like oh yeah yeah the white and gold that would be perfect for any Saudi prince like the color scheme you would see of like like a Saudi prince honestly but I thought we needed some more so I'm gonna go ahead and take these pieces and kind of put them in here so you could see what they look like you know against the white which I think just absolutely looks phenomenal so this is how I ended up painting my table though because I did like this and then there's these gaps between the cardboard on that one yeah so would be putting another layer on these I'm gonna show you how I painted the screws and because the screws are knurled as you can see right there they actually stick creating well it's got a lot of surface and jagged edges to grab on to but I want to do a little bit more for good measure now the way I painted the screws though because that's the hardest part is I did it with cardboard but I'm gonna show you how you could do it with foam now just like poke it into some styrofoam cardboard whatever and it's sort of like screwed in there a little bit that way it's holding it up and you can get to all sides so like I said I had done this yesterday with cardboard but today I'm just gonna use the foam because there's more paces more paces paces there's more pieces on this case I want to paint like the fan blades they do just pull off but so Phil's cracking up because I'm using the power screw to screw these into the cardboard I ran out of room on the foam well I technically there's more room but these are harder to get into there so these are the fan screws you know for the fans we just destroyed because we learned the hard way you can't really get the blades off the dynamic fan that comes with the case unfortunately Josh from fractal design got back to me right after we learned that so yeah we got some more fans on the way so we technically have the Vardar fans that are white but they're more of an off-white they don't match the case at all and since the quality of I guess died whatever plastic they're using in the case matches with the dynamic fans that come with it we're just getting more fans I'm also gonna be painting the envy link bridge I know that the motherboard I'm gonna be using is a triple slot or three slot spacing so this is gonna work but because this LED glows green I believe that this is also an RGB LED core know the truth because we already open this up and look behind there it's not a film making it green like on the old cards and bridges so we'll be unplugging that light altogether so it doesn't glow and then we'd be painting the silver gold because obviously this would clash with our cards so once we get all this painted then we can start a sort putting in the case to show you guys what it's gonna look like so I get asked this all the time what this toolkit is that I use this was actually not a sponsored toolkit although I fix it has sponsored some youtubers my wife bought me this for Father's Day last year either that or my birthday I remember which day anyway it doesn't really matter you guys can look down the description below I'll put a link to it to my amazon affiliate and there's it's a whole bunch of stuff there's different types of kits big ones small ones even magnetic trays so you can use it for like computer building repairs of like smartphones tablets laptops it's got all the possible bits we need even security bit so yeah you guys ask me all the time that is what I'm using now the NBA link bridge hopefully it comes apart easier the second time because it snaps together and then it has two Phillips on the bottom two torques on the top and then it's a clamshell that goes together on either side of the actual board it's 90 dollars or 80 bucks for this thing I want to I don't have to break it so Phil and I were looking at this yesterday this is what makes us pretty much positive that this is RGB look at the amount of cables going into the light there is actually a are a red a green and a blue wire so I'm gonna find a way to unlock it on here I think after all this time I'm finally ready to paint I got a mask top about as best as I can I mean it's never gonna be perfect when you're masking but I think it'll get the job done as long as there's no silver showing so let's go ahead and make some fumes I got fan exhausting air okay so we had a we had a mishap okay so here's what happened I had this sitting here like this and this had a nice new fresh coat on a heavy coat because I wanted it to be more glossy this is a gloss paint and because I've been dusting it it gives it that sort of a matte look that I wanted this piece to be a little bit glossy here instead of going with like clear or something I just sprayed it on heavier and then I moved the fan over here because I was like oh this will help it dry faster and this wet and it fell on it while it was wet and that's like no so I picked it up it like it was all stream that's like oh that's okay I can wipe it while it's wet so then I took paper towels and poured alcohol on it and yes I know alcohol is not a thinner I'm well aware it's not an acetone or anything like that anyway I tried to wipe the wet paint off and now you can see we've got this lovely textured effect so if we want to go for that weathered steampunk look we nailed it but anyway I'm now gonna show you how to strip this piece and start all over so this to the rescue aircraft paint remover you can find it in different brands this one happens to be by a clean strip you can find it from rust-oleum called air craft remover there's different types of paint stripper I've had really good experience with air craft remover so it basically will strip off all the paint on the metal the problem is if it's powder coated and it's a very terrible or very thin layer powered table hood the problem is if it's a very thin layer of powder coat then it could potentially take that off too but since we're painting it anyway I don't care so we're just gonna spray this on liberally and we are going to let it start to do its thing and eat into the paint you can take a brush to sort of work it in there if you need to what I'm gonna do while this is eating because it's gonna take about ten minutes for this to do something I'm gonna take one of my ice chests and I'm gonna fill it with water so we can dunk it in there and clean it off that way yeah so as you can see we are getting down to the white paint now see that it's just sort of peeling it off so that's what it does it just eats through the paint and then yeah there's a lot of paint on this I put way more layers of paint on this that I really needed so it's so gooey watch ha it's like I'm reaching into a diarrhoea film see you can even fix my epic pickups alright time to put back together yes I'm aware that there's no motherboard in there obviously they're just in there to see what they're gonna look like so I think we did a pretty good job of balancing the amount of gold versus the white now obviously this is part two or there's gonna be part two for this I I'm sorry about that I don't like doing multi partners but that's because I got a wild hair at my ass yesterday decided I'm gonna do this and I don't have any of the water cooling stuff I need for this so part two is gonna be doing the loop for the CPU putting that together we have gold fittings coming some black and gold fittings actually and I think it's all gonna look really good glass for reservoir same one we used in the thread Ripper build actually and I cannot wait for this to be done this might end up being my my new work machine because I've got I mean this just really doesn't but the Titans aren't good for gaming and stuff I mean they are but just their performance is abysmal in terms of their cost but I think he'll this channel has always been about kind of doing things that are a little bit impractical we show you guys how to do things and I like to sometimes go extremely over-the-top that's why all the white and gold on this looks amazing unfortunately I broke the fan and then by seeing whether or not that was a fluke I tried it on the next fan and broke that one and yep so we've got new fans on the way and I'll probably just mask those off and paint the blades if we feel like it needs it but once you get the radiator and the pump and the tubing and all that stuff we will be doing rigid in this I'm just going clear on the coolant I'm not gonna be doing any colored coolant I mean pastel white might look good but I've had the white unfortunately fall out over time and some builds to where it's sort of like a nonfat milk look rather than just a nice thick opaque white milk I don't know why I'm doing this I'm doing it so yeah I can't wait for this build to be done motherboard wise this stuff probably gonna just use the same 79 60 X that I've gotten my system upstairs where we're gonna be going with the new asus deluxe ii which is basically a white and silver motherboard i'll probably taking the silver pieces off of the heat sheet he cheeks the heat sinks and painting those gold to match yes i know that when he paints a heatsink it loses some of its efficiency but it should be fine we're not pushing the overclocks and stuff really far but i think obviously the best part of this I'm really proud of with a Tesla which turned out I wish that they had made a gold envy link that matched the cards but that's not off enough to look out of place we also got custom cables that are paracord white black and gold as well that'll tie this whole build together and then all the water cooling stuff will be over here to fill in the front part and my backup plan if I wasn't able to repair that panel that I completely jacked up as you see looks phenomenal after like an extra hour and a half two hours worth of work was I was gonna cut the box and it's like who would staple it on their iPhone duh okay we've we sniffed enough paint fumes today I'm sure some of you were already typing at some point in this video Janey should be wearing a respirator nothing I could say that would be incorrect so I'll give you that one Internet we should have been wearing a respirator but we had a fan in an open window subscribe it'll save my brain cells alright guys part two coming after the Christmas break at some point we'll see you then merry new year and a Happy Thanksgiving crap yes shot of you falling out the window oh you were you were hoping look at you I like boobies come on you big baby see even my echo see even my echo
