A build that I have been working on for nearly 2 years.

The lighting, control systems, software as well as the distroplate were designed and built from the ground up.


Controller features:

• Two coolant temp sensor inputs: a digital one accurate to ±0.5°C and an analog one for redundancy.
  
• Fans are controlled according to the liquid temperature.
  
• Overheat alarm (temperature limit configurable via software GUI)
  
• Pump watchdog function; alarm sounds in case of 0 pump rpm.
  
• 5 individual addressable RGBUV headers which allow unprecedented control of the lighting within the case.
  
• Front control interface bus; manages IO with the custom front touch panel.
  
• Front control interface features touch pads which allow the user to change mode/speed/colour etc.
  
• AM4 mount lets the controller mount securely onto the rear of the CPU socket.
  
• Integrated VRM solution for a supplemental 5V rail.
  
• Custom firmware and software written for easy control.
  

All the led strips are custom and feature addressable RGB + UV lighting in a single SMD package.
There are 5 different zones of lighting in the case:

• 25 leds in the CPU block
  
• 7 leds in the GPU endpiece
  
• 30 leds on the right
  
• 30 leds on the bottom
  
• 30 leds on the left
  

Each LED is addressable (red/green/blue/UV) and the total maximum power consumption is nearly 50W!

The distroplate was designed and milled by myself over the space of several months. Massive shoutout to Alex Banks and his tutorials for designing/milling the distroplate.
