AJ'S Mini Italian Build Log!

Ajay57 · Mar 5, 2013

Well this is my second build in 6 to 8 months, i would say i like building PC's more than just using it. I hope all the members will enjoy this build as we progress through each of its stages.

The main purpose of this build is to show everyone you do not need to have a "PC Case" and how easy it is to work, clean and maintain using this type of method!

The name of this Build came from 2 things!

1, A Great British Film "Called the Italian Job"

2, And where the main parts came from, ie the Bench Unit.

Best regards AJ.

Just a small up date to my build log have order some more parts i needed. And just finished ordering my GPU Card as well a SAPPHIRE HD 7970 6 GB VAPOR-X. The beauty of this card is has the same fittings as my HD 6950/70 Cards i had before 2x DVI outputs. Will post some more up dates of the work i did today later on, as i have to go out now.

briansun1 · Mar 6, 2013

wow... I like the "case"

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013

Today's work completed on the build, yes its a slow burn of start for this as we are waiting for some vital parts coming! I hear you say why did you not order before now, the reason is simple. Until i had my Bench here in the house there was not much i could see what at the time i needed. Now as they say its more than meets the eye, but not to worry by this weekend hopefully we should up to speed. The only major thing i need is the Motherboard Stand Offs which could throw off the build if they don't turn up! Yes they are a special design for this Benching Unit as well. AJ.

P.S. Briansun1 thanks for the nice remarks and welcome to the build.

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013

Well that's it for today as it goes will post some more photo's and up dates later on. AJ. :thup:

briansun1 · Mar 6, 2013

about how much did this all cost?

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013

Don't ask i haven't told the wife yet!!! lol. :shrug:

Janus67 · Mar 6, 2013

i love dimastec products

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013

By the way all the Brackets in blue was a special order!! There normal color is black, but i managed to get them to do this as a test item. Now they think maybe we could do more of this.
So tell me Janus what do you like??? AJ.

Janus67 · Mar 6, 2013

The blue is going to look great, going to have a nice 'pop' to it against the white.

I just love benching stations (I use one myself for my 24/7 machine!) -- mine was built by Navig (all wood)

I saw your message about the keyboard. I have another one on my plate right now but hopefully can continue to get more in!

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013

I am hoping to do some more building by the Weekend just waiting for some Final parts here. Yes i saw Navig bench i looked when he was doing his latest build, he is very good and i wonder where he finds the time. What with a full time family etc lol. Just keep watching and thanks for dropping by hope to see you throughout the build on here Janus. AJ.

Boulard83 · Mar 6, 2013

Ajay57 · Mar 6, 2013
