Bill Owen from Mnpctech.com gave me a heads up on a new modder from South Africa, whom he is now sponsoring. His name is Ettienne Venter and his first mod is called ‘Project Epiphany’. As you can see, it’s pretty stunning.
According to the forum thread on www.wizdforums.co.uk, Ettienne was inspired to build the PC after seeing the feature on Orac 3 in Custom PC. As he says in the thread in Wizdforums, ‘A few years ago I read a CustomPC magazine and saw the ORAC machine in it. It was really the most amazing mod I had ever seen. To this day, I still believe ORAC to be the most amazing mod. So I decided to do a mod of my own. This was the first real mod that I was to do, and I had absolutely no modding skills whatsoever.’
Bill supplied us with Ettienne’s email so we’ll get in touch and, hopefully, he’ll be able to follow in the footsteps of Peter Dickison (builder of Orac 3 and WMD) and have his mod featured in the pages of Custom PC too.
i met ettiene on bill’s forum and his skills are really quite astonishing, he has another project underway called andorphin which is looking awsome so far, but unfortunetly he dosent have mush love for thermodynamics, zero cooling for his mobo but the main components remain well cooled.
