New Frame Build - CMWS19

Hello to all,
Time for another case build for Cooler Master's Case Mod World Series 2019. I am planning of scratch dual system build of a small size supporting full ATX and ITX board and custom liquid cooling in an open frame type case.
Basic idea and layout and build so fare.

Started working on the build.

Motherboard tray and front PSU mount done.

Sponsor support from Cooler Master and ASUS

Colouring of case under progress.

Paint job almost done. Tring test fit of PSU.

Started hardware installation and cable routing. Waiting for some parts to arrive.

Added analog â€˜rpm' meter for pump speed monitoring. Also started doing hard tubbing.

ASUS STRIX H270I Gaming mini-ITX board arrived from ASUS India. Also purchased CPU and nvme storage for this ITX board.

A CPU block and some memory installed. Tried some test fits.

Update Cooler Master #CMWS2019 case mod. Some late night working on the build. Waiting for some storage hardware to arrive.

Update Cooler Master #CMWS2019 case mod. Full Sunday modding fun. Finished mounting all storage drives and filled the loop with clear coolant. Installed OS and full testing on both PCs finished successfully.

Finally after months of work, my build for Cooler Master Case Mod World Series 2019 #CMWS2019 is finished now.

Presenting Open Frame Dual PC, a scratch build for Cooler Master Case Mod World Series 2019.

This is a Developer Station build with two complete PCs driven by single Cooler Master V1000 Watts PSU inside an open frame type case.

The AMD Threadripper CPU based system is the main development system and the second Intel i7-6700K based system is a backend task system handling test Hosting, Databases, API services, Storage, Backup, etc. for main system as well as fellow developers connected via network.

Both systems are powered by single Cooler Master V1000 Watts PSU, where Main system is connected directly with the Cooler Master PSU. Second system is powered by a 300W PicoPSU, which gets 12V DC power from 2 x PCI-e Power cables from PSU, coupled along with 1 Farad Super Capacitor. The Super Capacitor helps in keeping the Second system running smoothly during all the re-boot cycles of Main system.
