Not Now

Time has come for a final update!

A big thank you to all the sponsors of the Hikari Project for making it possible: Corsair EK Water Blocks Pexon PCs Hardware Labs and CoolingLab!

It was a really challenging but funny project, as it was my first scratchbuild, But I'm really happy with the result, and I hope you'll like it too!.

...

Let there be light!

And teasing time! :P

Update time!

EK Water Blocks Water blocks mounted on the ASUS REPUBLIC OF GAMERS Maximus VI Formula and the EVGA Titan X. They look gorgeous!

Also had time to finish the custom logo....
I had to cut and put a LED stripe here because I wanted the HKR logo to shine in white color instead of the stock red logo.

Finally, I spent the rest of the day doing bends of the tubing.
The bends coming from the radiators in the bottom chamber to the upper chamber were quite tricky to do, but mission accomplished!

More progress!

Finally, the I/O bracket is finished! I'm very pleased with the result. :)

Got the drain line done today too. All the loop will be made in rigid tubing, but I used flexible tubing for this part, as I wanted something very easy to use and access when doing maintenance.

...

I had the SSD (thank you Corsair!) painted and dressed with a new homemade sticker. I can't wait to test that beast!

Also buyed a CPF04, a fan hub controller made by Silverstone.
Very compact and perfect for the build, as it will fit perfectly between the two radiators. Painted, sleeved and replaced the SATA power connector by a 4 pin Molex one.

Stay tuned!

Lightbox/Middle plate done!

Made with some mirror acrylic, clear acrylic, milk/led acrylic and 5630 SMD LED strip.
I'm very pleased with the result! I can't wait to see how it will look once the hardware is mounted inside. 😊

Radiator mount system done.
The rails for guiding the radiator plate are made from old HDD trays that I cutted (they will be glued, sanded then painted).
Once the plate is mounted, it is secured by M3 screws.

I also had time to install the mount of the reservoir (Reservoir/pump combo from EKWB). Need to sleeve that pump cables though.

...

I couldn't resist and mounted the motherboard and the cables to see how it fits. I love the result!

Update time!

The powder coating is finished! The result is really great with this matte finish.
The assembly went smoothly! Now I just have to figure how to attach the side panels in a more convenient way (it is just temporary on the pictures, as I couldn't resist to share some pictures).

First major step of the build: painting the motherboard!
Everything has been done with High Finish brushes and enamel paint from Tamiya, and an airbrush (for the motherboard shield and the SATA ports).
