so here we have it we have fully assembled the first case for our Vesta
0:05
R1 series of systems now like I said
0:08
guys they're not perfect and just to be sort of full disclosure about everything
0:13
I'm going to point out all of the imperfections so there's a little
0:18
bit of imperfection in terms of the overall surface of the case so there's a
0:23
little bit of that um as a whole I mean
0:27
it's a project that the shop we're working with had never approached before
0:32
and so I mean when you consider the the rate that these systems are going for
0:36
compar well I guess I haven't talked about the price yet but we'll do that later uh when you consider the rate
0:40
these are going for versus other custom painted systems I'm sure you guys will be plenty excited about them um let's uh
0:47
oh yeah see so you can see when it's taken
0:52
apart it's fairly visible there's you know like overspray on the insides and
0:58
things like this line you know they're not going to look great when the case is
1:03
disassembled uh we also had a little bit
1:06
of red somehow end up on the drive cages of this particular one but we haven't
1:10
really seen if they're all like that there's nothing that will be visible or
1:15
noticeable when the case is actually
1:19
assembled though okay so let's have let's let's look at it close up so you
1:23
can see here we did the side panels the front grill the top you can see when you
1:28
open this up it's it's actually red down to the insides
1:33
here just like that wow you can really see the reflection on the glossy finish
1:38
on this uh on this case here uh here come and have a close look at the front
1:42
so we actually took the Corsair badges off before painting the case so we could
1:47
put them back on and it'd be nice and tidy this side looks
1:51
great just a nice straight red side
1:56
panel the latches are a nice little black accent I've seen people complain
1:59
about the latches on the Corsair 650d but in this context they actually look
2:05
pretty sharp just being a bit of a a black accent even on this side I'd say
2:09
they actually look even better because they're a bit of a black accent to go
2:13
along with the trim around the window um to the to the otherwise Stark red finish
2:18
of the case now I did mention we were going to use the custom NCIX Edition Gan
2:23
fans in the system so you can see up here we've got our red and black fans
2:28
installed and then we're going to be installing more in the back once we've
2:31
got the Corsair h70 installed there so
2:34

2:38
