----------------
Phase One
----------------
To build a new gaming PC based on the Intel x99 chipset so it is ready to drop in a nVidia Pascal based video card when they are released. I will be re-using a few parts from my current x58 gaming PC to complete the build. The Jonsbo RM3 is a relatively small Micro-ATX case, so I will be running an external water cooling radiator.
----------------
Phase Two
----------------
Upgrade to nVidia Pascal, watercooled. I have not decided if I will buy one or two cards yet. I'll wait for real-world benchmark scores and prices to determine what will be best for 4K gaming.
----------------

    Nice purple. Don't see that color too often in builds. Have fun.

    Mod is fantastic, I would like more Red or Grey but that's personal taste.
    So clean build and nice... and  I must say case is excellent and elegant. 
    Very nice case, I like him. Next time I will go on something not bigger than this case for mATX Format.
    You use this model? Only instead Jonsbo should be EVGA. That part could be modified...
    How much cost this nice little case?
     

     
    EVGA MODS RIGS are definitely my favorite part of Community, I really enjoy looking all nice mods here.

    Radiator is out of case.
    I would like to see more pictures... and how you install radiator out of case.
    I LOVE THIS BUILD! 
    You use and CORSAIR AF120 Purple LED?
    Now only graphic card in loop and later sound card and RIG is finished.
    I see... soon I will say goodbye E-ATX welcome mATX.
    You will get many + for MODS RIGS, only to update picture and specification there.
     
    Now I first time see this case and it's better than 90% similar cases.
    Only flaw I notice is no place for 240mm on top, but enthusiasts today don't want to little things make them problems.
    They use Dremel 4000 and fix everything.

    Yes, that is the case. It was pretty tough to find in the US, so I ordered it off Ebay from Korea for around $280 USD. Kind of expensive for what it is, but I love the styling and size of the case. I knew it couldn't fit my watercooling needs internally without butchering the case, so I chose to do an external radiator. It will make filling/draining/cleaning the loop much easier. Also, I will probably make the 'Jonsbo' illuminated logo into something like 'EVGA' in phase 2 of the build. I have a rough idea of how I want to make it, which will involve some plexiglass and frosted vinyl. As for the purple, I wanted to do something different, since for the last 10 years I've been using black/gray/white/red/blue/green for everything.

    That would be fantastic if you replace logo. 
    Some stores who work with such materials could help you a lot.
    I check price of case and it's pretty high. But it's immediately obvious that case is not some of steal case with 100$ price.
    And I will not change my case because I have no money at the moment for PC case, need for much more important things and all case I like are not below 300$.
    I like full aluminum and that's it.  Nothing like Carbide 600C and similar madness.
    Ideal case for me is small case with capability to even E-ATX fit inside.
    But case can't be much bigger than E-ATX motherboard and she need to cover almost all inside are but I would go on mATX. Only E-ATX should be as  option.
    Example  Silverstone Raven RV05 is so small case when you look him build for mATX but there are space for E-ATX.
    Only different design of case off course. I would love example UMX4 version but cost over 300$.
    Only I would remove Jonsbo sign because I like to see power supply model.
     

     
    I would build PC inside of him, he is nice as well and it's not big.
    But Obsidian 450D, 750D... they are nice, but no way to pay something like that.
    They are nice, but no thanks...
    Next build mATX...
    To bad because everything finish bad with EVGA I would even now maybe change motherboard on Micro 2 or some other small for Broadwell-EP.
    Or for Skylake-EP 100%. I don't need E-ATX any more. I never in life use more than some mATX could offer.
    It's bad because motherboard manufacturer don't want to build mATX board in same quality as E-ATX. They always use cheaper chokes, smaller phase or different VRM than premium E-ATX model, but they should build same motherboard only with less space for GPU.
    Everything else should stay in same quality as premium E-ATX board. mATX board should be ready to hold 8 core Intel overclocked to the max easy.

    Installed some fans. :) Also ended up using a Seasonic 1050 Platinum instead of the SnowSilent 1050 due to the way it looks in the rear.

    Top fan (may end up flipping this one so I have positive air pressure inside the case for dust mitigation purposes:

    That's same PSU only other color?
    In black version is better and more famous fan San Ace and PSU look better and fit nicer with case.
    For Snow White they install some other fan not San Ace. 
    Seasonic was not so smart as CORSAIR with cables, they should use all normal cables or all ribbon cables.
    CORSAIR even for previous version offer 24pin ribbon cable in shop because it's easier for installation.
    How much place for PSU you have there... I mean how long PSU could fit? Probably all size.
    I would build mATX in same case. I didn't saw better for now.

    If you don't install the 120mm fan in the front of the PSU shroud, you can pretty much fit any size power supply length.  Otherwise, you're limited to standard ATX spec size.

    1000 T2 could fit easy if not 1000 PS no problem. 
    Maybe even 1200 P2 could fit? 
    If I need to buy PSU now and looking my plans in future I would choose 1000 PS only because size. 
     
    I'm crazy for Jonsbo... how weird and funny name... JONSBO! hii hii hiiiii 
    I WANT JONSBO!

    Yup, the 1200 could fit, if you remove the mid-level 120mm fan in the case since it would potentially block the power supply cable connections from being plugged in.

    Not finished yet. Some parts must be on the slow boat from China. No tracking on one of the packages, but one says it left Iceland 4 days ago, and the other left China 2 days ago.
     
    I got my dust filters in today. I installed the Corsair SP120's onto the radiator and tested them out. It pushes a pretty good amount of air, and is relatively quiet. The dust filters look ok, but not all that spectacular. Function over looks though, so the radiator does not get clogged up with dust. I am still waiting on my MDCP-X sleeving to sleeve the fan wires.

    Fan controller arrived. This will power and adjust the radiator fans, and the matching aluminum enclosure will also have power for the water pump. The enclosure has not arrived yet, but should be here soon.

    Dang this is looking good man. I'm assuming you're hanging that radiator outside of the case because you refuse to NOT use it, and it won't fit inside of the case? ;) And very creative way to add color and personality to the rig using those colored washers, I might steal your idea! Excellent work! Can't wait to see it finished!

    Thanks. Yes, it is going to be externally mounted. I was going to 3D print a mount for it, but I couldn't design a strong enough / thin enough plastic piece to mount under a 120mm fan and hold up the weight of the radiator once it was filled with water. I decided to use the XSPC universal radiator mounts and either mount it on a shelf next to the computer, or to the underside of my desk. I'm still designing a 3D printed mount for my pump that will sit external though.
