Description
I bought the iBuyPower Snowblind Case second hand with these parts below for $1000 total (what a find!):
i7-8700k, z370-A Pro, ENERMAX 120mm T40FIT CPU Cooler White, 16gb silver ripjaws ram, 3 ibuypower kind of white fans?, 1 140mm corsair black fan, 120gb WD green ssd, 1tb hdd, and a 600 Watt Standard 80 PLUS Gold psu. (I took everything out and am using some of those parts for my wife's computer)
The issues that I wanted to fix was:
-
Upgrading every part, (still have to find a good priced RTX 2080ti under $1000
-
Making everything as white as I could, this makes seeing images on the Monitor easier
-
Creating a MB armor of plexiglass. I ordered this 12" by 12" 1/8th sheet from amazon for $16. (This was the most difficult task, using a dremel free hand to make straight lines ugh) Still not happy with some of the uneven lines on it. Would love if someone could laser cut or 3d print one for me.
I'm overall pretty happy with the outcome, I'm still debating on trying to add a few more things:
-
More white LEDs (they have to be a matching white color and SUPER bright)
-
Possibly cutting some white vinyl wrap and putting it over all of the black areas on exterior case, also covering the iBuyPower logo inside of the case
Thanks for checking this out! Let me know what you think or if you have any questions!
edit: Thank you all so much for your compliments, they mean a lot! My next goal is to create a matching white battle station (desk, peripherals, chair etc).
