About this mod / project:
ASUS’s Strix brand has been around for about a year now and MathMilitaryModding has done a great scratch build showcasing the brand! The build features a completely scratch-built case of aluminum panels and even a custom acrylic bottom that has two SSD mounts and a watercooling channel. This is the first build that we have seen to use rigid carbon fiber tubing in the custom loop. Great detail all around!
