Gigabyte 30th Anniversary Mod Challenge [The Duality]

[crowTrobot]

Thank you very much for participating.

Who says you have to use hardline for a clean look these days? This build looks well done that some people might not realize its actually two systems.

Good luck in the competition.

Final reminder for the deadline which is tomorrow November 15, 11:59 PST.

For those having trouble editing their profile on the Gigabyte mod2win website, the registration has been reopened so users can either resubmit a profile or leave a message here so I can forward to Gigabyte and they can re-open the account on their end.

You did a great job on the final product! It looks amazing and koodos for getting so much stuff into that small box without it looking like a complete trainwreck.

I'm trying to finalize my photos as well and am getting errors submitting as well. But mine is an authorization issue, not a max length error. Haha, hopefully they can fix it in time.

Damn that's a lot of stuff in a small box. Nice job!

I got the same error. I reduced the size of my pics to 1024x or around 500K and finally got 8 of them to upload. Check Navychiefs log though, there's some questions about where to upload and completed profiles and all of that so I don't know what's going on. Crow said he was trying to get ahold of GB to figure out what was up. I've uploaded mine on the concept page and completed the project so hopefully it works.

Thanks ^^

I ended up making them 1920 pixels wide with lower quality export and was able to upload all 10. They wanted high resolution and low file size, those two tings don't always work well together xD

Last picture update before the final shots! This build has so many cables, it's proving to be quite a challenge, with the help of my 3D printer, it makes it easier!

Getting moar done! pump installed and plumbed. Missing a ST30 280 because I realized because of the Z170 board 8-pin location, it simply will not fit with the 45mm thick. Also missing the reservoir from Frozen-Q.

Little update, things are getting done Lots of work to do with a two week deadline!! Tube combs galore

Also, it kind of hurts modifying a custom made case, but it needs to be done!
