June 2013 Bit-tech Modding Update

Tenuis 2 by Gtek

Last year we spotted a huge spike in forum traffic. We had the most people online ever and we soon found the culprit - forum use Gtek had just posted photos of his achingly beautiful HTPC called Tenuis, which went on to compete in Mod of the Year.

Gtek's new project is much of the same but the refined design does away with a GPU in favor of an even slimmer, more compact design using a slim mini-ITX motherboard. The end result is just as spectacular as the first. Feast your eyes on these final shots and head over to the forum to see more.




Acrylic ITX build by imersa

We had two Parvum case mods last month and we've got two more this time. The first is forum user imersa's Acrylic ITX build. Compact is the word here - yet they've still managed to cram the full compliment of water-cooling gear, mini radiator and Asus' dual-slot Direct CU Mini GTX 670 2GB into this tiny chassis.

The soft drink can really emphasizes just how small the case is - barely twice the height of the can and less than twice the width of the graphics card. If you're into SFF systems then you'll definitely want to head over to the project log.





In the meantime, head over the page to see more eye-candy.
