Well, I think I voided this warranty...

KayinStorm · 28-May-04, 05:26 PM

Nothing like a bit of time and TLC to turn a mobo into just what you want...

Spectrum · 28-May-04, 05:31 PM

Wow! That is sweet, but is performance inhibited or heat generated?

BigAkita · 28-May-04, 05:34 PM

Hey, I killed one of those motherboards.

Demon Made · 28-May-04, 05:34 PM

i dont understand...what did you do?

Edit: oh...did you paint it?

KayinStorm · 28-May-04, 05:35 PM

DFI Infinity Ultra B?

Just had a lot of time put in it.

And no, it seems to act just fine...

You can even still see the traces through it...

TYCOON · 28-May-04, 05:37 PM

I like the Sapphire 9800Pro cooler on the NB, what did you paint it with?

KayinStorm · 28-May-04, 05:39 PM

It's a new formulation silver Sharpie pen. Takes some getting used to. I'm using it in other places in my case now, testing something...

Erad · 28-May-04, 05:40 PM

To be honest, I think it looks ugly....but that's just my opinion. Oh well
I still give you major props for all that work

TYCOON · 28-May-04, 05:41 PM

Oh sweet i got one of those upstairs, mabey il pimp out my 9600Xt when I get home...

KayinStorm · 28-May-04, 05:43 PM

Well, to each their own.

It's going in a silver themed mod, the specifics of which are a closely guarded secret at the moment.

And, I happen to have a great sinus headache, so you can't pry the info out.

Dervish · 22-June-04, 01:54 AM

Kayin... I can still see red on the MOBO. You're better than that. Go fix it.

flounder405 · 22-June-04, 07:33 AM

Kaylin that looks alot like a BFG cooler on the NB....just woundering if it is.If so what you using on the video card? Looks slick though in my book the whole idea /mobo.

turbopsi · 22-June-04, 02:57 PM

I think it's an original mod, i've never thought about "painting" a motherboard, nice job. If you were to paint everything silver and add some lighting, who knows what the effect might be

. Keep it up and post more pics.

EstwingMan · 22-June-04, 03:08 PM

Looks great Kayin. How long did it take? That must have taken forever.

FunkyFresh · 22-June-04, 03:13 PM

I for one like the all-silver look. I can't imagine the patience and eyestrain that must've taken. Hmm.... I bet one of those aluminum fans would look great on the heatsink (course, the performance might not match whatever you've got now).

I've been going for all silver on my LiLi as well, even putting some mirror film in front of the LCD screen I have in a drive bay. So when the backlight's off, it's mirror-silver, but when it's on, it shines through just fine.

KayinStorm · 22-June-04, 03:20 PM

THose interested in the how-to, PM me.

This is the DFI that left us, but I have a 7NJS-Ultra Zenith to replace it. That'll solve my problems.

FeRaL · 22-June-04, 03:37 PM

Not to rain on yer parade, but for the most part its already been done with the exception that you did it to the front side of the Mobo instead of the back side. I apluad your attention to detail though.

Card Painting

Here is something cool looking taboot

Joose · 22-June-04, 03:46 PM

hehe I remember you bitching about masking it off...

It still looks frigging p.i.m.p. though...I like the who monochrome look to it...
