Ok so i got me some new stuff.. More paint(oil based high glossy hobby paint as usual), cable management items & some velcro tape.

So. Take the case apart for starters.. Here iam removing the mesh from the trim

Ok! Done for now. I also removed the heatsinks of my Corsair Vengeance DDR3 kit. (this mod is still in beta phase. I do not recommend you to do this yet, since i don't know how stable this mod is) since painting heatsinks could isolate the heat back into the ram chips. Though i will be using 2 extra thin layers of oil based paint for this test.

Decided to go nuts with the spray can on all the black details of the case and ddr3 heatsinks to match the rest of the build.
2 thin coat layers of paint. After that i left them outside under a roof to dry for 15hours. Since some of these stuff are going inside the case it is very important it is totally dry
Im really happy with the cleanyness of the ram heatsinks! Hope they still work...

Will check back with you guys to tell you if this is the best thing on the market today..

Will be checking back within the upcoming weeks with result of the ram mod. To see if i recommend it or not.
But this Phantom 410 project is soon to be finished. I just have some re-sleeving to do, also building a new PSU cover
Although i have already recieved a Phantom 820 case for my upcoming build.
So stay alert and look for Jonas "jompenleet" Undestam.
Have a good one
So stay tuned!
Re: Phantom 410 MOD - Project Log
Would it be ok if i added just the banners anyway? because without them it doesn't really look like my worklog.
I don't need to put any links up, but i want to show people what kind of material iam using for my builds. And you removed lots of them
Re: Phantom 410 MOD - Project Log
You can certainly say what you used, and as an example, say where you got it from, but no logos.
Re: Phantom 410 MOD - Project Log
Ok, i'll add the pics of what i used. If it is anything you find against the rules. Just remove the specific thing and ill not post it again
