11. Did you modify anything ? cases/video cards/other? Did you do it yourself? Walk us through it.

Yes, many things: the case by himself.
Posed of carbon, cutting the side panel and the front, creation of a new drive cage, creation of a new middle plate.
Then, sleeving, painting, etc !

I did everything myself even from A to Z.

13. Do you have any Future updates planned ?

Yes, maybe a SSD andÂ Alphacool Cape Cora HF at the back of the case ;)

Well, I hope you will like my PC as much as me!
In any case the most important thing is to have fun building your own Mod and it does not matter if everything is not perfect as long as it is to your taste and unique to you !

Guru3D Rig of the Month - September 2012
The Guru3D Rig of the month September 2012 build comes from a Francis Vilaca. At 26 years of age he was able to build an amazing looking machine with the most wicked liquid cooling radiator you will have seen in a while.

Guru3D Rig of the Month - August 2012
This months build comes from a Mikkel Olsen. At 27 years of age Mikkel probably did not build the most beautiful game PC we have had submitted, but his room nearly is one huge PC, a freakish gaming please heaven for many of you. The guy has a lot going on in there as you are about to find out. Come to think of it, the guy should put up some Miami Vice signs in there to get that good old 80'ies feel to it :)

Guru3D Rig of the Month - July 2012
This months build comes from a guy with the nickname MybadOmen. To proof that PC enthusiasts can be found worldwide in all categories and ages we can proudly say that David Lane is a 40 year old guy. David has build an exemplary nice PC loaded with little things that trick the mind. Very little is not modified to be honest.

Guru3D Rig of the Month - June 2012
One person we have been following closely on his build-log is Eric Soeters from the Netherlands, and although his build still is not 100% finished, it's nearly there and just amazing. He has built the chassis from ground up including some very hard work. The end result is his new PC called the "Exo-S", we'll just leave the explanation and working to the man himself as the only thing that is left after you have seen this build is to clap your hands and yell bravo ...
